Insights

Blockchain Financial Analyst

GameSquare's new ETH treasury strategy yielded 7.84% in its first month, outperforming standard staking by 4x while building $76.2M in onchain assets.

GameSquare has implemented a progressive treasury management strategy leveraging Ethereum and NFTs to generate yield, with impressive initial results. Their first month yielded approximately $450,000 (101 ETH), representing an annualized yield of 7.84% – over four times higher than standard Ethereum staking yields of 1.89%.

The company has rapidly built a substantial digital asset position, holding 15,731 ETH valued at $69.1 million as of August 31, plus an NFT portfolio with a $7.15 million cost basis. This creates a total onchain position of $76.2 million, representing $0.78 per share based on 98.36 million outstanding shares.

What's particularly notable is GameSquare's strategic timing in acquiring ETH. Their initial purchases in July at $2,749 per ETH have already appreciated significantly, with ETH trading at $4,391.91 by August's end – a 59.8% increase. Their August 1 purchase of 1,402.52 ETH at $3,565 has similarly gained 23.2% in a month.

Beyond the current yield performance, GameSquare is expanding its strategy with a new NFT yielding program managed by 1OF1 AG, launched September 1. The company has eliminated all long-term debt and expects this onchain treasury program to contribute to profitability in Q3. The launch of holdings.gamesquare.com for real-time tracking of their onchain assets demonstrates a commitment to transparency that's rare among public companies venturing into digital assets.

As this program matures, the benefits of yield compounding combined with the new NFT yielding strategy position GameSquare to potentially reach double-digit returns in coming months, making it a distinct approach to treasury management in the gaming industry.

NFT yielding program started September 1, 2025, and is expected to be accretive to annualized yield
