The second-largest publicly traded ether treasury firm, SharpLink Gaming (SBET), has raised $76.5 million in a direct stock offering priced above market.
The Minneapolis-based company said in a press release it sold 4.5 million shares at $17 per share, a 12% premium over its $15.15 closing price on Oct. 15.
The sale price also reflected a premium to the company's net asset value of its 840,124 $ETH holdings, reflecting what the company called “strong institutional confidence” in its strategy.

The firm’s ether holdings are second only to that of Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR), which currently has 3.03 million $ETH in its treasury.
SBET is higher by 3.7 to $15.57 in early Thursday trade alongside a modest bounce in the price of $ETH to back above $4,000.
