ETHZilla Announces $250M Share Buyback While Holding Half-Billion in Ethereum – Here’s Why

NASDAQ-listed Ethereum ETH $4 412 24h volatility: 7.6% Market cap: $531.57 B Vol. 24h: $45.91 B treasury firm ETHZilla recently approved a $250 million share repurchase plan and revealed it holds 102,237 ETH at an average acquisition price of $3,948.72 for a value of approximately $489 million.

According to paperwork filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Aug. 25, the firm’s total holdings, including USD cash equivalents of approximately $215 million, come to about $704 million with 165,478,655 company shares outstanding.

Depending on market conditions at the time of the buyback, ETHZilla stands to onboard somewhere around half of its outstanding stock if it instigates a full $250 million buyback.
