According to Cointelegraph, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said that buying and holding Ethereum by public market companies allows more types of investors to access the token, but he also cautioned against relying too heavily on leverage.
In an interview with the Bankless podcast released Thursday, Vitalik said he supports so-called Ether treasury companies, but warned that the trend could turn into an "over-leveraged game" if mishandled. He believes there is value in the growing number of publicly traded companies buying and holding Ethereum (ETH, currently $3,884) because it allows the token to reach a broader investor base.
"There is no doubt that these companies are providing valuable services," Mr. Vitalik added, adding that businesses investing in Ethereum treasury companies, rather than holding tokens directly, could offer "more options", especially for investors with "different financial profiles".
So-called crypto treasury companies have become one of the hottest trends on Wall Street, raising billions of dollars to buy and hold cryptocurrencies on a large scale, giving traders exposure to tokens, the most popular of which are bitcoin and ethereum.
