Treasury Strategy

ETHZilla (formerly 180 Life Sciences) closed a $425 million private placement to advance its Ethereum treasury strategy. The company plans to rapidly increase its ETH holdings and execute a differentiated yield generation program in partnership with Electric Capital and with guidance from a new DeFi Council. ETHZilla aims to become a benchmark for on-chain treasury management, offering investors exposure to the Ethereum network. The capital will also support existing iGaming operations and IP monetization. The executive team and board have been expanded with crypto and capital markets expertise.

Volcon (VLCN) now holds 3,183.37 BTC, acquired for approximately $375 million at an average of $117,697 per Bitcoin. The company is actively managing its position by selling short-term put contracts to potentially acquire more Bitcoin at lower prices. Volcon’s board has also authorized a $100 million stock repurchase program. The company believes this treasury strategy reflects its confidence in Bitcoin as a long-term store of value. Volcon aims to offer investors efficient exposure to Bitcoin through the public equity market.
