Fundamental Global Inc. has unveiled plans to raise up to $5 billion for a dedicated Ethereum treasury, potentially eclipsing holdings of major current ETH stakeholders including SharpLink Gaming and Ether.
This initiative includes accumulating and staking Ethereum to generate decentralized finance yields, positioning the firm to become a significant institutional participant within the Ethereum ecosystem. The strategy directly leverages blockchain’s native staking mechanics for institutional-grade returns.
The move reflects a broader industry shift as institutions increasingly pursue direct exposure to cryptocurrency assets rather than traditional derivative products. Successfully raising the targeted $5 billion could substantially strengthen Ethereum’s market standing and influence amid growing institutional adoption of digital assets.
