Of these proceeds, about $37.2 million raised on July 3 has yet to be allocated to ETH purchases and is expected to be deployed this week. The stock has shown significant momentum, with InvestingPro reporting a 73% return over the past six months, though with notably high volatility (Beta: 12.1).

The company has committed 100% of its ETH holdings to staking and restaking protocols. Between June 28 and July 4, SharpLink earned approximately 100 ETH through staking rewards, contributing to a total estimated reward yield of 322 ETH since initiating the program on June 2.

SharpLink has introduced a new transparency metric called "ETH Concentration," calculated by dividing total ETH held by 1,000 Assumed Diluted Shares Outstanding. Since announcing its initial ETH purchases on June 13, the company’s ETH Concentration has increased from 2.00 ETH to 2.37 ETH, a 19% increase in three weeks.
