GM bulls, I’ve been thinking a lot about game theory lately, not in the abstract, but in how it’s quietly playing out across the @ethereum ecosystem. What I see isn’t just “bullish accumulation.” It’s strategic signaling. And the coordination effects are already unfolding. Let’s look at the data: ▸ SharpLink Gaming now holds 360.8K ETH ▸ Bitmine Immersion Tech follows with 300.7K ETH ▸ Ethereum Foundation sits on 238.5K ETH ▸ Coinbase, Bit Digital, Golem Foundation, all hold 100K+ ETH ▸ And spot ETFs now collectively own 4.8M ETH (still unstaked) That’s not retail noise. That’s balance-sheet conviction. When one public company makes ETH a treasury asset, it’s a calculated move. But when multiple companies do it, something bigger happens: They trigger a reflexive loop, where each new buyer pressures others to act. ▸ No CFO wants to be the one who “missed ETH” on the balance sheet. ▸ No asset manager wants to be last to rotate into the settlement layer of AI, DeFi, and tokenized assets. This is classic game theory: → First movers benefit from lower prices and long-term narrative alignment → Late movers risk relative underperformance, not just in returns, but in strategic positioning And this dynamic feeds itself: More corporate demand → less liquid float → price appreciation → more headlines → more institutional entry So when people ask “Can ETH break its ATH again?", I don’t think it’s a question of hype or speculation. I think it’s a question of coordination threshold, how many players need to act before the price reflex goes vertical. We’re closer than it seems.

$ETH: 3767$ Congrats to everyone who’s been holding and consistently DCA’ing into $ETH. It hasn’t been easy, but the thesis is starting to play out and the onchain data reflects it. Right now, about 29.15% of ETH supply is staked, that’s 36M ETH, backed by over 1.1M validators. Some might see this as a saturated market. I don’t. To me, this figure still leaves room for structural upside. ▸ Lido holds ~25% market share of all staked ETH ▸ Binance, Coinbase, Kraken remain dominant among CEX stakers ▸ Net staking flow post-Shanghai: +17.8M ETH, a clear directional trend But there’s an important nuance: ETH ETFs which now collectively hold ~4.8M ETH are not staking yet. This isn’t necessarily a flaw. It’s a regulatory constraint, made explicit in their filings. But if this changes (as we've seen with some Solana funds abroad), it would introduce a new source of passive staking demand. I’m not saying this will happen tomorrow. But it’s a scenario worth tracking, one that could shift ETH’s staking ratio significantly over time. So no, this isn’t a sudden unlock or guaranteed catalyst. It’s a slow-moving dynamic that reflects how Ethereum’s financial primitives are maturing, across staking, settlement, and yield layers. I continue to hold and allocate accordingly. Not out of hype, but because I believe $ETH is becoming something more foundational than just another token: → A programmable asset with monetary depth, institutional buy-in, and increasingly, infrastructure-level utility.
