MINNEAPOLIS, MN, July 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SharpLink Gaming, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBET) (“SharpLink” or the “Company”), the world’s largest publicly traded company to adopt Ethereum (ETH) as its primary treasury reserve asset, today announced that it will ring the Nasdaq Stock Market closing bell on Monday, July 7, 2025, in celebration of a groundbreaking milestone in its corporate evolution.

This special event marks SharpLink’s emergence as one of the first Nasdaq-listed companies to strategically adopt ETH as a core treasury reserve asset.

This move represents a natural extension of SharpLink’s innovative DNA and our commitment to staying at the forefront of industry transformation.”

SharpLink’s decision to incorporate Ethereum into its treasury signals a broader institutional acknowledgment of digital assets’ growing legitimacy and utility. It also highlights the Company’s commitment to not only leveraging blockchain technology in its product ecosystem but also in its financial strategy.

“Ringing the Nasdaq closing bell is more than symbolic for SharpLink. It marks a bold new chapter,” added SharpLink CEO Rob Phythian. “We’re proud to be among the trailblazers demonstrating how digital assets can coexist with public market discipline and corporate governance. This is just the beginning of our journey toward embedding decentralized trust into everything we do.”
