SharpLink Co-CEO: Ethereum TVL Could Grow 10x by 2026

2025.12.27 09:59:02

On December 27, Joseph Chalom—Co-CEO of SharpLink Gaming—tweeted that three key trends could drive a significant jump in Ethereum’s Total Value Locked (TVL) by the end of 2026: the stablecoin market hitting $500 billion, growth in tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), and rising interest from sovereign wealth funds. Chalom noted tokenized RWAs will reach $300 billion in 2026, with assets under management (AUM) for tokenized assets growing tenfold. The scope will expand from tokenizing individual funds, stocks, and bonds to entire portfolios, he added. ETH holdings by sovereign wealth funds and the scale of tokenization will also surge 5–10 times, per Chalom. A major catalyst: major financial firms including JPMorgan Chase, Franklin Templeton, and BlackRock have ramped up their interest in Ethereum over the past year. Notably, SharpLink unstaked 35,627 ETH (valued at $104.4 million) earlier this morning.

February 21: U.S. trade expert Lawrence Herman said the Supreme Court’s rejection of former President Trump’s tariff policy does not end U.S.-Canada trade tensions. The U.S. government still has other tools at its disposal, and Canada will continue to face tariffs on steel, aluminum, automobiles and lumber, he noted. “Tariffs will stick around in some form long-term,” Herman added, warning the U.S.-Canada trade relationship has already broken down.

The Netherlands Declares Polymarket Illegal and Orders It to Cease Operations

On February 20, the Netherlands’ gambling regulator ruled that Polymarket was offering unlicensed gambling services to Dutch users—violating the country’s Gambling Act—and ordered it to cease operations. The regulator noted Dutch users could register on the platform, deposit funds, and place bets, which constitutes “games of chance” requiring official licensing. Non-compliance could lead to weekly fines of up to €420,000, with a maximum cumulative penalty of €840,000. Polymarket argued it operates a prediction market, not traditional gambling, but the authority rejected this claim. (Source: Decrypt)
