"By increasing our ETH per share while simultaneously driving meaningful revenue growth, we are building the premier Ethereum-focused public company," said Charles Allen, CEO of BTCS. "BTCS stands apart in two keyways: first, our hallmark DeFi/TradFi flywheel, enables us to access capital at a low cost and deliver, leveraged exposure to Ethereum, and second our established track record, we're the world's oldest public blockchain company and have been laser focused on Ethereum infrastructure for nearly five years."
Ethereum Holdings Snapshot
As of Friday, July 11, 2025, BTCS's ETH holdings include:
- Total ETH holdings: 29,122
- ETH Market Value: $87.3 million at $3,000 per ETH
- Staked ETH: 4,160 via Rocket Pool Nodes, 6,300 via Solo Nodes, 4,382 in staking queue

Sources of Capital
