GameSquare shares spring on board approval of $100 million ethereum treasury strategy

GameSquare is entering the increasingly crowded crypto treasury arena.

The firm’s pick: ethereum, joining SharpLink Gaming (led by ethereum cofounder Joseph Lubin as its board’s chairman), Bit Digital, and BitMine Immersion, which has Fundstrat founder Thomas Lee as chairman of its board.

On Tuesday, GameSquare announced that its board approved an ethereum allocation of $100 million “based on staged investments over time” and a public offering of $8 million worth of common stock to accelerate its newly formed ethereum treasury strategy.

Shares of GameSquare were below the $1 level yesterday morning and have skyrocketed over 150% to trade as high as $2.66 at 10:00 a.m. ET. ethereum has seen a 3.7% increase in the last 24 hours, data from CoinGecko shows.

The company’s ethereum strategy also includes searching for yield-generating opportunities. GameSquare teamed up with crypto capital management company Dialectic, aiming “to generate real, on-chain yield while deepening our expertise in decentralized finance, pursuing new revenue streams, and strengthening our balance sheet,” GameSquare CEO Justin Kenna said in a statement.

GameSquare made headlines earlier in the year for fully divesting from FaZe Media, an internet media company led by streamers and creators.

BlackRock’s IBIT on track for its worst month of net outflows, as investors yank $2.3 billion from the bitcoin ETF in November

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, the world’s largest bitcoin fund, is heading for its worst month of outflows since it launched in January 2024.

Investors have pulled over $2.3 billion (net) throughout November so far. The jitters come as bitcoin grapples with its worst downturn since 2022, when the entire crypto world shook following the fall of Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX — bitcoin has dropped more than 40% from its October high as of Monday’s close.

With their soaring popularity redefining and legitimizing cryptocurrencies at an institutional level, spot bitcoin ETFs have become a key barometer of wider investor sentiment surrounding the digital currency — as well as risk assets more broadly.

Notably, spot bitcoin ETFs like BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust tend to see their inflows accelerate with rising prices, and amplify falling prices when outflows become dominant. Citi Research, cited by Bloomberg, found that this feedback loop sees a ~3.4% price drop for every $1 billion pulled out from bitcoin ETFs.
