Rhea-AI Filing Summary

In a transaction involving Sharplink, Inc. (SBET) common stock, reporting person Consensys Software Inc. (CSI) sold all 5,676,952 shares of Common Stock held by it in a block trade on October 8, 2026, at $8.39 per share.

The reporting persons collectively reported beneficial ownership of 10,866,132 shares, or approximately 4.9%, and said they ceased to be beneficial owners of more than 5% as of October 8, 2026. Separately, CSI reported beneficial ownership of 3,455,019 shares issuable under non-pre-funded warrants, all currently exercisable. The ownership calculation used an assumed combined total of 220,678,623 shares, including 217,223,604 common shares outstanding as of August 3, 2026.

Filing Explained

The amendment also reports that Lubin, PHPC and CSI exercised pre-funded warrants for nominal prices after an increase in outstanding shares made exercise permissible under the warrants’ ownership limits, and that exercise adds shares, which the filing says increased the reporting persons’ voting power and reduces other holders’ percentage ownership absent offsetting changes.

block trade financial
"sold all 5,676,952 shares of Common Stock held by it in a block trade"
A block trade is a large, privately arranged sale or purchase of a company's shares or bonds between big investors, often negotiated to avoid upsetting the public market price. Think of it like selling a truckload of goods directly to one buyer instead of unloading it on a busy street — it moves a lot of supply at once and can signal shifting demand, affect immediate liquidity, and influence short-term stock prices.
beneficial ownership financial
"collectively beneficially own 10,866,132 shares of Common Stock"
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.
non-pre-funded warrants financial
"shares of Common Stock issuable under all non-pre-funded warrants held by CSI"
beneficial ownership limitations financial
"permitted by the beneficial ownership limitations set forth in certain of such warrants"
Beneficial ownership limitations are rules or contractual caps that restrict how much of a company’s stock an individual or entity can be treated as owning or controlling for legal, regulatory or corporate-governance purposes. They matter to investors because such limits affect voting power, reporting obligations, takeover risk and the ability to increase a stake — like an elevator weight limit or a lane divider that prevents any one car from taking over the whole road.
