The company announced its intention to tokenize its SEC-registered common stock directly on the Ethereum blockchain, partnering with financial technology firm Superstate as its Digital Transfer Agent.
By doing so, SharpLink aims to show how public companies can leverage blockchain infrastructure to create shareholder value, improve market efficiency, and pave the way for the next generation of capital markets.
Tokenized Equity and the Opening Bell Platform
The partnership will use Superstate’s Opening Bell platform, a regulated onchain issuance and tokenization solution. Shares tokenized through Opening Bell remain fully compliant with U.S. securities laws and are legally equivalent to traditional book-entry equity. At the same time, they can be held in self-custodied wallets, integrated with digital financial products, and offered to a global investor base. SharpLink and Superstate also plan to explore how tokenized public equities could trade on Automated Market Makers and other DeFi protocols in a compliant manner.
SharpLink will be the first public company that uses Ethereum to record/issue their official shares.
You’ll be able to bridge your shares between brokerage accounts, and ERC-20. DeFi integrations and new use-cases ahead.
Proud to partner with $SBET https://t.co/XIE2Fk7qaH

Companies like Overstock and tZERO have experimented with security tokens, but SharpLink’s initiative represents a major public company directly bridging Ethereum and traditional equity markets. The goal is to enhance liquidity, reduce settlement friction, and make capital flows more efficient. With Opening Bell, tokenized equity could eventually unlock secondary market trading opportunities, allowing compliant shares to trade seamlessly through DeFi channels.
Driving Innovation and Market Adoption
SharpLink has already positioned itself as a leader in Ethereum adoption. Since June 2025, the company has accumulated over 838,000 ETH and generated nearly 3,815 ETH in staking rewards, making it one of the largest corporate ETH holders worldwide.
SharpLink is now sitting on $500M in unrealized profit since launching the strategy on June 2, 2025.
This was done not just by acquiring, but also by staking almost 100% of our ETH.

Co-CEO Joseph Chalom emphasized that tokenizing SharpLink’s shares is more than a technical milestone; it signals a vision for capital markets that combines transparency, efficiency, and blockchain innovation. Chairman Joseph Lubin of ConsenSys added that integrating traditional finance with composable DeFi on Ethereum could redefine how public equities function.
