In a strategic crypto acquisition spree, BTCS, a Nasdaq-listed blockchain infrastructure company, expands its Ethereum holdings, instead of its namesake crypto, Bitcoin (BTC). With the latest purchase of 3,450 ETH, valued at approximately $8.42 million, the platform currently holds around 12,500 tokens ($31.8 million), up from 9,063 ETH at the end of Q1 2025.
Notably, BTCS sees Ethereum as a foundational asset for the company’s operations as well as its growth. According to CEO Charles Allen, the strategic addition of over $8 million in ETH to the company’s treasury aims to strengthen validator operations, increase staking revenue, and drive long-term shareholder value.
BTCS Purchases 3.4K ETH: What’s Behind the Move?
In an official press release, BTCS CEO Charles Allen revealed the company’s latest acquisition of a massive amount of ETH at an average price of $2,441 per token. Highlighting the significance of ETH in the platform’s growth, the CEO stated,
Ethereum remains at the core of our blockchain infrastructure strategy. By expanding our ETH position, we are strengthening the foundation that allows us to scale validator operations, grow staking revenue, and drive long-term value for shareholders.
It is noteworthy that this development coincides with the increasing institutional demand for Ethereum. This growing acceptance of ETH is evident from the net inflow of $64.889 million on May 20, which marks one of the largest single-day inflows. BlackRock’s ETHA recorded its largest single-day inflow, attracting a substantial $45 million.

With a current ratio of 43.43, the blockchain firm boasts a robust liquidity position, with liquid assets far exceeding its short-term obligations.
Blockchain Firm’s Ethereum Purchase Triggers ETH Price Surge
Driven by BTC’s Ethereum addition, the ETH price hit a daily high of $2,607, only to plummet to $2,547. Over the past 24 hours, the token has seen a marginal increase of 1.97%. Despite a weekly dip of 3.1%, ETH experienced a massive bounce of 56% in a month.
