Ethereum Foundation Dumps 5.000 ETH Amid Secret Treasury Restructuring



Ethereum Foundation (EF) announced it will swap 5.000 ETH for stablecoin with CoW DAO’s time-weighted average price feature to fund research, grants, and donations.

This swap is valued at approximately US$11.0 million at current prices, following the treasury management framework that EF published in June 2025.

Why is EF Selling ETH Now

EF is one of the largest individual Ether holders, and its selling activity so far has attracted attention and scrutiny from the community.

This latest conversion indicates that the organization is truly carrying out the treasury policy published in June 2025.

The policy sets annual operational expenditures at 15% of the total treasury value. In addition, EF also maintains cash reserve funds for the next 2.5 years.

EF performs periodic checks to ensure fiat reserves meet the targets; if any shortfall is found, an ETH sale will automatically take place in the following quarter.

The Foundation has confirmed on X that CoW DAO’s TWAP mechanism will execute the transaction. TWAP splits large orders over a specific period of time to reduce market impact.Ethereum Foundation Dumps 5.000 ETH Amid Secret Treasury Restructuring
