Every time I come to Korea, I spend time with builders and startups. No country in the world has such an innovative, technology-forward culture. The talent is incredible and the enthusiasm is unbelievable. This could be the next wave of innovation for South Korea. South Korea has the license to become a top digital asset hub. Thanks to 3ProTV for having me on to discuss:
서울에서의 좋은 대화. 한국의 혁신 생태계에 대해 제가 느낀 점입니다. 한국을 방문할 때마다 스타트업 창업자들과 빌더들을 꼭 만나 시간을 보냅니다. 이처럼 혁신적이고 기술 중심적인 문화를 가진 나라는 세계 어디에서도 찾아보기 어렵습니다. 뛰어난 인재들이 많고, 열정 또한 놀라울 정도입니다. 이러한 에너지가 한국 혁신의 다음 물결을 만들어낼 수 있다고 생각합니다. 한국은 최고의 디지털 자산 허브로 도약할 잠재력을 갖추고 있습니다. 좋은 대화를 나눌 수 있도록 해주신 3ProTV 에 감사드립니다.

I am proud to share that @Sharplink $SBET will join the Russell 2000 and Russell 3000 Indexes on June 29, 2026.
This is an important milestone for $SBET, and the significance is in the capital these indexes anchor.
Approximately $12.2 trillion in assets are benchmarked against the Russell US Indexes, with roughly 16% using the Russell 2000 as their reference point. Inclusion places SBET inside the passive and active flows that track these benchmarks.
This is a validation of our thesis and work so far. And it’s only the beginning.

I joined @_TalkingTokens alongside @MikeSilagadze of @ether_fi for a conversation on what institutional-grade DeFi actually requires.
We discussed how @Sharplink deploys its $2B ETH treasury with discipline, how decentralization drives protocol safety, and more.
Thanks for having us, @jacqmelinek.

Today's @_TalkingTokens discusses how DeFi protocols should be thinking about risk and what institutions want to deploy on chain.
I interviewed @MikeSilagadze, founder and CEO of @ether_fi, and @joechalom, CEO of @Sharplink to dive into:
- EtherFi's updated risk framework and emergency "red button"
- How Sharplink's $2 billion ether treasury underwrites DeFi risk
- Why it's important to consider tail risk in valuations
- Why performative decentralization makes protocols less safe
- What it takes for institutional players to deploy on DeFi protocols and more
TIMESTAMPS
00:00 – Intro
01:30 – The relationship between EtherFi and SharpLink and why they work together
01:46 – What EtherFi is building: the DeFi bank with $5-6 billion in deposits
02:24 – SharpLink's $2 billion Ethereum treasury and why they deployed $200 million into EtherFi
03:38 – Balancing speed and safety: why the DeFi risk playbook hasn't been written yet
05:28 – Why institutions move slow deploying, but go fast when monitoring problems
07:25 – How EtherFi approaches security: in-office teams, formal verification, and constant audits
08:26 – Decentralization theater: why performative decentralization makes protocols less safe
09:17 – Why EtherFi is building an emergency “red button” intervention system without compromising self-custody
10:53 – How SharpLink's team underwrites DeFi risk
13:28 – Why institutions are still in the first inning of DeFi adoption
17:28 – How tokenized securities will unlock DeFi at a scale far beyond bitcoin and ether
22:11 – Qualified custody with Anchorage and why ops alpha matters for institutional DeFi
23:09 – What's next for EtherFi: global licensing and becoming a viable alternative to banks
25:56 – Stablecoin rails as the main way crypto reaches the real economy
28:31 – Tokenization about to expand as NYSE, Nasdaq, and DTCC opening up 24/7
29:44 – Final advice: stay safe, don't chase yield, and invest in young builders

Key metrics continue to reinforce long-term conviction in Ethereum: staking levels, holder behavior, exchange supply, ETF flows, network activity, and Stablecoin and RWA market share continued to lead despite recent ETH price consolidation.

The last few months have been volatile for the price of ETH. But in parallel, the structural indicators of long-term institutional adoption of Ethereum continued to build.

The US Senate Banking Committee released a 309-page market structure bill for the CLARITY Act at midnight on May 12th, with a markup vote scheduled for Thursday at 10:30am ET.
This is the most consequential week for crypto policy in at least a year, and likely our best window to get this done before midterm dynamics take over.
Sharplink supports this bill.

Proud to announce our plans with @GalaxyHQ.
We are not simply holding ETH. We are deploying it with discipline, generating returns that compound our position, and building the infrastructure that DeFi needs to reach its next phase of maturity.

We’re excited to announce our non-binding agreement with @GalaxyHQ to launch a first-of-its-kind $125M ecosystem liquidity fund to deploy capital into high-quality DeFi protocols and generate risk-managed returns that increase our ETH per share.
The Galaxy Sharplink Onchain Yield Fund will be managed by Galaxy Digital and will target onchain liquidity strategies and early-stage protocol support.

Leading Ethereum stewards @Consensys and @ethereumJoseph have joined DeFi United with up to 30,000 ETH in financial support for the rsETH recovery effort, with ongoing strategic advisory from @Sharplink.
Their contributions are a substantial component of the broader DeFi United effort to restore rsETH's backing and normalize market conditions, and the recovery would not be progressing as it is without them.
DeFi United.

Honored to have shared the stage with @VitalikButerin and the EF team at the launch of Asia's first Ethereum Community Hub.
Hong Kong continues to impress. The density of talent across ETH, finance, and AI keeps compounding.
Moments like this clarify exactly where the next chapter of onchain finance is being written.
Deep thanks to @SNZHoldings for making this happen. @AyaMiyaguchi, @henrychen_cy

Today, crypto and traditional finance are seen as two different worlds.
That is going away. We are entering the era of onchain finance, one that blurs the lines between crypto and traditional finance and is capable of unleashing stranded capital at an unprecedented scale.
The promise of truly decentralized blockchain and AI is going to bring benefits to consumers, not incumbents.

Ethereum isn't just scaling for humans, but AI agents that know a user's preferences and goals and execute autonomously.
Retail investors are about to get financial access and outcomes previously reserved just for institutions.
"Once investors see what they're missing, I think it's going to be hard to go back.”
Thanks @ninabambysheva for the conversation about the coming age of agentic finance in @ForbesCrypto.

Sharplink has now generated nearly 15,000 ETH (~$30.8 million) in cumulative staking rewards since launching our Ethereum treasury.
Nearly 100% of our ETH is staked. Compounding every day. This is Ethereum with an edge.
