etherealize raises $40m to pitch eth to wall street while firms buy $1.2b worth this week
Ethereum (Reddit)

etherealize just closed a $40 million funding round led by electric capital and paradigm to drive institutional ethereum adoption. this comes during a week where public companies added over $1.2 billion worth of eth to their treasuries.

the numbers are getting serious. the ether machine raised 150,000 eth worth $654 million on tuesday. bitmine immersion bought another 150,000 eth over the past week. companies are accumulating at unprecedented rates.

what's interesting is etherealize was founded by vitalik buterin and the ethereum foundation specifically because institutions lack education on eth compared to bitcoin. wall street clearly understands btc but eth adoption has been slower despite the technology advantages.

firms now hold nearly 4% of total eth supply and this could reach 6-10% by year end if fed cuts rates this month. that level of institutional ownership could create serious supply constraints.

derive platform founder nick forster is putting 44% odds on eth hitting $6,000 by year end, with 30% chance it happens by october. current price around $4,400 means we're looking at potential 36% upside.

the timing seems perfect - institutional education funding arriving right as corporate treasuries start serious accumulation. eth is down 11.5% from its august peak but corporate buying suggests this might be the floor.

if institutions really do reach 6-10% supply ownership while ethereum becomes easier to understand through etherealize's efforts, supply shock dynamics could get wild heading into q4.

New Trader Seeking Advice
Ethereum (Reddit)

I’m a new trader and have been looking into coins to invest in. I’m building a portfolio and am currently looking for feedback on the coins I have chosen. I’ve invested into bitcoin, ETH, Hbar, and LInk.

Is there anything i should add or get rid of? I’ve also heard alot of hype for xrp but also alot of criticism... so should I buy xrp?

I got tokens out of few dead website smart contracts
Ethereum (Reddit)

One thing most DeFi users eventually run into is the frustration of having funds “stuck” in contracts. A farm shuts down, the frontend disappears, or a liquidity pool is abandoned, and suddenly your tokens feel inaccessible. Over the past months I’ve been focusing on recovering these funds directly from EVM contracts — bypassing the dead UI and talking straight to the blockchain.

I’ve managed to extract tokens from dead yield farms, abandoned liquidity protocols, and other DeFi ghost towns. These aren’t hacks or exploits — they’re simply direct contract interactions using functions that were always there. If you understand how the EVM works and how to interact with contracts via block explorers or noscripting tools, you can often recover assets that most users assume are gone.

I’ve documented the process step by step in a guide here (Part 1):

Some low level Investment Banking Research
Ethereum (Reddit)

I recently had a great idea.

A merger between $SBET and $BMNR

— Both companies have the same strategy
— Joseph Lubin and Joseph Chalom would be great assets for BMNR. Having a founder is a huge plus, alot of great ideas and a deep understanding of the product and service.
— BMNR acquiring all Sharplink's assets would help them reach their 5% goal ALOT sooner at a lower cost.
— Sharplink is trading at discount to their assets, this is mainly due to the fact that BMNR is clearly the winner and the market has voted with their dollars. Sharplink realistically may never be able to be number one, others are not far behind.
— Theres too many company's in the space doing the same thing, there will be consolidation sooner or later. Might as well create a super company now while shares are discounted.

Theres a rumor going around the Tom Lee will be on Joe Rogans podcast. Who knows they may have already filmed.

ETH you there? Stripe builds new stablecoin with the largest Finance and AI companies
Ethereum (Reddit)

Stripe enlists a who’s who, including Anthropic, OpenAI, and Paradigm, to build a new blockchain

Stripe is funding a new blockchain company called Tempo, co-founder CEO Patrick Collison announced on Thursday. Tempo is aimed at high-volume processing of stablecoins — coins that help reduce crypto’s notorious volatility because they are pegged to a stable asset like the U.S. dollar. That’s not surprising given that Stripe acquired stablecoin company Bridge.

What is surprising is the eye-popping list of companies Stripe has already enlisted: Anthropic, Coupang, Deutsche Bank, DoorDash, Lead Bank, Mercury, Nubank, OpenAI, Revolut, Shopify, Standard Chartered, and Visa. So if the blockchain works well, these design partners should be queued up to use or offer it for everything from agentic payments to remittances.

Plus, Stripe board member Matt Huang, co-founder of one of the most...
