Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, added over 7,700 Bitcoin in August, while SharpLink Gaming expanded its Ethereum reserves to more than 837,000 ETH.  Strategy, led by Bitcoin advocate Michael Saylor, continued its aggressive Bitcoin strategy with another major purchase last week.  According to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, the company bought 4,048 BTC between August 25 and September 1. The acquisition, valued at $449.3 million, occurred at an average price of $110,981 per coin.  Bitcoin’s wild swings influenced the timing, spiking above $113,000 before dropping below $108,000 on Friday. This volatility created the opportunity for Strategy’s latest purchase. With this purchase, Strategy now owns a staggering 636,505 BTC, strengthening its position as the largest public company holder of the asset. The firm has spent $46.95 billion on its Bitcoin stash, which, at current prices, is worth $69.6 billion. This leaves the company with an unrealized profit of around $22.66 billion. August Buying Slows Compared to July The latest acquisition capped a quieter month for Strategy. In total, the company purchased 7,714 BTC during August, a significant decrease from the 31,466 BTC purchased in July. August’s purchases were made in four separate transactions. Earlier in the month, Strategy disclosed the acquisition of 430 BTC and 155 BTC. A larger addition of 3,081 BTC was announced last week, before the final 4,048 BTC purchase. The company funded these buys through several at-the-market equity programs, including STRF ATM, STRK ATM, STRD ATM, and MSTR ATM. These facilities allow Strategy to raise cash by issuing and selling new shares directly into the market. SharpLink Expands Ethereum Treasury While Strategy sharpened its Bitcoin bet, SharpLink Gaming (SBET) focused on Ethereum. The firm revealed it acquired 39,008 ETH last week, spending an estimated $177 million at an average cost of $4,531 per coin.  The purchase pushed SharpLink’s total holdings to 837,230 ETH, valued at nearly $3.6 billion as of Tuesday. The buy was financed mainly through $46.6 million raised via the company’s at-the-market equity program in the week ending August 31. Since launching its Ethereum treasury strategy in June, SharpLink has earned 2,318 ETH in staking rewards. The company also reported $71.6 million in cash reserves available for future deployment. SharpLink highlighted its growing commitment to Ethereum with a treasury ratio called the ETH concentration metric. This measure, which compares ETH exposure to cash, now stands at 3.94. In simple terms, the company holds nearly four dollars of Ethereum for every dollar of cash on hand. As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $109,480, showing little change over 24 hours, while Ethereum has fallen 3% to $4,300 amid a softer market mood.Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, added over 7,700 Bitcoin in August, while SharpLink Gaming expanded its Ethereum reserves to more than 837,000 ETH.  Strategy, led by Bitcoin advocate Michael Saylor, continued its aggressive Bitcoin strategy with another major purchase last week.  According to a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, the company bought 4,048 BTC between August 25 and September 1.

Adam Wainwright Takes The Mound Again Honor Darryl Kile

The post Adam Wainwright Takes The Mound Again Honor Darryl Kile appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

(Photo by Brandon Sloter/Image Of Sport/Getty Images) Getty Images St. Louis Cardinals lifer Adam Wainwright is a pretty easygoing guy, and not unlikely to talk with you about baseball traditions and barbecue, or even share a joke. That personality came out last week during our Zoom call when I mentioned for the first time that I’m a Chicago Cubs fan. He responded to the mention of my fandom, “So far, I don’t think this interview is going very well.” Yet, Wainwright will return to Busch Stadium on September 19 on a more serious note, this time to honor another former Cardinal and friend, the late Darryl Kile. Wainwright will take the mound not as a starting pitcher, but to throw out the game’s ceremonial first pitch. Joining him on the mound will be Kile’s daughter, Sierra, as the two help launch a new program called Playing with Heart. “Darryl’s passing was a reminder that heart disease doesn’t discriminate, even against elite athletes in peak physical shape,” Wainwright said. “This program is about helping people recognize the risks, take action, and hopefully save lives.” Wainwright, who played for the St. Louis Cardinals as a starting pitcher from 2005 to 2023, aims to merge the essence of baseball tradition with a crucial message about heart health. Kile, a beloved pitcher for the Cardinals, tragically passed away in 2002 at the age of 33 as a result of early-onset heart disease. His sudden death shook the baseball world and left a lasting impact on teammates, fans, and especially his family. Now, more than two decades later, Sierra Kile is stepping forward with Wainwright to…
