ETHZilla approves $250m stock buyback, reveals $489M in Ethereum holdings

New Ethereum treasury firm ETHZilla hopes to boost its share price with a major stock buyback.

Summary
  • ETHZilla announced a $250M stock buyback to boost its share price
  • Firm holds 102,237 ETH, worth about $489 million
  • The company has $215 million in cash holdings

More firms are publicly embracing the crypto treasury strategy. On Monday, August 25, the recently rebranded ETHZilla approved a $250 million stock buyback in an effort to strengthen its share price. In addition, the firm revealed it has total holdings of 102,237 ETH, valued at about $489 million.

ETHZilla will repurchase stock until buying up to a maximum of $250 million, scheduled to be completed by June 30, 2026. The company will acquire shares either on the open market or through deals with institutional investors at market rates.

The company should not face issues funding these repurchases. In the same press release, ETHZilla disclosed it currently holds approximately $215 million in cash equivalents.

Why ETHZilla is repurchasing stocks

The move to repurchase the company’s stock does two things. It puts pressure on its stock price, as well as increasing the ETH per share metric for the firm. Both of these will likely help boost the company’s share price.

Formerly 180 Life Sciences, the company completed a rebrand to ETHZilla on August 18 to pursue an Ethereum treasury strategy and an acquisition of $419 million in ETH. Almost immediately, the shift paid off, with its stock advancing as much as 70% following the announcement.

EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data

The post EUR/CHF slides as Euro struggles post-inflation data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. EUR/CHF weakens for a second straight session as the euro struggles to recover post-Eurozone inflation data. Eurozone core inflation steady at 2.3%, headline CPI eases to 2.0% in August. SNB maintains a flexible policy outlook ahead of its September 25 decision, with no immediate need for easing. The Euro (EUR) trades under pressure against the Swiss Franc (CHF) on Wednesday, with EUR/CHF extending losses for the second straight session as the common currency struggles to gain traction following Eurozone inflation data. At the time of writing, the cross is trading around 0.9320 during the American session. The latest inflation data from Eurostat showed that Eurozone price growth remained broadly stable in August, reinforcing the European Central Bank’s (ECB) cautious stance on monetary policy. The Core Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), which excludes volatile items such as food and energy, rose 2.3% YoY, in line with both forecasts and the previous month’s reading. On a monthly basis, core inflation increased by 0.3%, unchanged from July, highlighting persistent underlying price pressures in the bloc. Meanwhile, headline inflation eased to 2.0% YoY in August, down from 2.1% in July and slightly below expectations. On a monthly basis, prices rose just 0.1%, missing forecasts for a 0.2% increase and decelerating from July’s 0.2% rise. The inflation release follows last week’s ECB policy decision, where the central bank kept all three key interest rates unchanged and signaled that policy is likely at its terminal level. While officials acknowledged progress in bringing inflation down, they reiterated a cautious, data-dependent approach going forward, emphasizing the need to maintain restrictive conditions for an extended period to ensure price stability. On the Swiss side, disinflation appears to be deepening. The Producer and Import Price Index dropped 0.6% in August, marking a sharp 1.8% annual decline. Broader inflation remains…
