Ethereum treasury company SharpLink reported a $1.08 billion net loss for the six months ended June 30, according to its Aug. 7 quarterly filing, which attributes most of the result to price-related accounting charges.
The filing states that $827.7 million of the loss stemmed from an unrealized decline in the value of ETH, while another $267.8 million came from impairments of LsETH and weETH, tokens representing liquid staking and restaking positions. These predominantly non-cash charges exceeded the overall net loss because other results partly offset them.
The six-month loss was 934.3% above the roughly $104.4 million recorded a year earlier.

Much of SharpLink's treasury is staked, a factor that makes conversion time a material part of the company's liquidity profile.
