| ETH on the balance sheet. Bitcoin's dominance in corporate treasuries may soon face competition. This week, SharpLink Gaming made headlines with a plan to deploy $425 million from a private placement into Ethereum, sending its stock up nearly 400% in a day.
The move highlights a growing trend: companies are starting to look beyond BTC. With Ethereum's deflationary supply mechanics, staking yield, and an expanding use case set, ETH could also become an attractive asset for corporate balance sheets. Coincidentally, in another positive sign, ETH's weekly price momentum just shifted from bearish to neutral.
Circle worth $6 billion? Circle, the company behind USDC, is officially going public. The stablecoin issuer has filed for an IPO on the NYSE under the ticker CRCL, aiming to raise $624 million at a valuation close to $6.7 billion.
USDC is already the second-largest stablecoin with $62 billion in circulation, growing 40% this year, compared to Tether's growth of 10%. And momentum is building: Washington is finally moving on stablecoin legislation, with Trump signaling he'd sign a bill before Congress recesses in August.
A proposal to make Solana even faster. Solana has introduced a new proposal called Alpenglow, which if implemented, would mark the biggest upgrade to its consensus system yet. Developed by Anza, a spin-off of Solana Labs, the proposal introduces two key components: Votor and Rotor.
Votor could reduce transaction finality to just 150 milliseconds, a dramatic speed boost from the current 13 seconds.
Rotor would replace the existing Turbine protocol, aiming to improve how data is shared across validator nodes.
While Alpenglow is not confirmed, and testing is expected to begin later this year, it reflects Solana's ambition to become the fastest and most robust public blockchain, if the upgrade moves forward. |
