SharpLink is buying, staking, and re-staking ETH, removing the supply from circulation and strengthening the health of the Ethereum ecosystem. Moreover, we see this as the beginning of something bigger.” ETH, which has gained 7.6% in the last 24 hours, is trading at $2,982, having fallen below $3,000 at the time of writing.
