ETHZilla Corporation, a publicly traded company focused on Ethereum as a treasury asset and eyeing strategies around its decentralized finance ecosystem, plans to deploy $47 million in Ether to liquid restaking protocol Puffer.

Summary
  • ETHZilla eyes $47 million in Ethereum deployment on Puffer to enhance yields on company’s ETH holdings via restaking.
  • The company, which raised a further $350 million to buy ETH, will deploy 10,600 ETH to the liquid restaking protocol.

Nasdaq-listed ETHZilla, one of the aggressive crypto treasury companies focused on Ethereum, revealed the expected $47 million deployment in an announcement on September 25, 2025.

The company’s plan is to tap Puffer, a liquid restaking protocol, for a decentralized finance strategy that will deliver higher yield on the Ether tokens that ETHZilla holds as part of its treasury haul. Puffer’s restaking solution will help ETHZilla not only generate higher yield but also boost the platform’s validator ecosystem.

Approximately 10,600 Ethereum (ETH) worth roughly $47 million is targeted for this initiative, the Nasdaq-listed firm noted.

A boost to Ethereum’s restaking

ETHZilla recently raised a further $350 million to buy ETH, and also reported the repurchase of 0.5 million of its shares at 2.41 each. The company has so far managed a total 6.45 million in stock buyback.

The move to deploy ETH on Puffer for restaking aims at enhancing the company’s cash flow from its treasury bet. Collaboration also bolsters institutional participation in Ethereum’s restaking ecosystem. Notably, ETHZilla recently unveiled a $100 million restaking bet via EtherFi.

Per DeFiLlama, Ethereum currently has more than $224 billion in total value locked in DeFi protocols, with top players including Aave, Lido, and EigenLayer. Puffer Finance’s TVL is around $171 million, while PUFFER, the token native to the Puffer restaking ecosystem, has a market cap of around $37 million.

Token prices and TVL have dropped sharply in the past year, but Puffer is gaining traction amid its vertical crypto infrastructure, and its liquid restaking token is crucial for capital efficiency. Puffer also offers UniFi, an Ethereum layer-2–based rollup for composability, and Preconf AVS for sub-second transaction confirmation.

According to the official statement, GD Culture Group announced that they have entered into an equity agreement to acquire assets worth $875 million, including 7,500 Bitcoins, from Pallas Capital Holding, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands. GD Culture will issue approximately 39.2 million shares of common stock in exchange for all of Pallas Capital’s assets, including $875.4 million worth of Bitcoin. GD Culture CEO Xiaojian Wang said the acquisition deal will directly support the company’s plan to build a strong and diversified crypto asset reserve while capitalizing on the growing institutional acceptance of Bitcoin as a reserve asset and store of value.
