Sharplink Gaming Boosts Blockchain Strategy with $1 Billion Ether Treasury Shift

This company is reinforcing its blockchain plans by purchasing another $1 billion worth of Ether after purchasing $425 million of the digital asset earlier this week. The company’s push to use blockchain and digital assets in iGaming is becoming stronger.

As a result of this registration, it can issue shares like common stock and preferred shares and other securities at any time as needed. The company has $1 billion worth of “at-the-market” agreements with Alliance Global Partners (AGP) to sell stock as required.

Both sides can spend the funds immediately, after agreeing to the terms in this contract. With its Sharplink Gaming Ethereum approach, the company seeks to make Ether the center of its treasury reserve in place of cash.

It feels that, over time, Ethereum will better suit their business needs. In contrast, Meta shareholders vote against Bitcoin treasury assessment plan, signaling a more cautious approach from other tech giants

This year, Sharplink invested in CryptoCasino.com, a blockchain-based gaming portal by Armchair Enterprises. Bitcoin and Ether are major cryptocurrencies that CryptoCasino.com accepts and it is compatible with MetaMask wallets.

The new investment will allow Sharplink to join the world of crypto gaming. Many are developing interest in crypto gaming because they want the quickness, safety and privacy that digital currencies offer. Sharplink Gaming Ethereum plans could influence more gaming companies to follow suit.

Ethereum Slips Below $2,530 as Trading Volume Surges

Ethereum (ETH) price decreased to $2,529.82 over the past 24 hours which is a 3.89% drop. Price has declined sharply on the day’s chart, starting from a high of $2,649.90 earlier.

Attempts at recovery were unable to last, letting the chart show several pullbacks and drops in new local highs. ETH dropped in the late trading session, breaching the $2,550 support.

The crypto market is generally on a downtrend and other cryptos like Bitcoin are also trading lower at the moment. Ethereum maintains its strong 3-month reputation, getting a perfect 100% profile score from the community.

Traders of Ethereum are currently focused on $2,500 as the possible support line. If Ether price continues to fall and drops below this support, it would lead to further declines. If prices climb above $2,600, it would indicate the market is recovering, but this climb looks difficult at the moment.
