📊 Former Ethereum treasury-themed company ETHZilla has dropped the “Ethereum treasury” label and will rename itself Forum Markets, trading on Nasdaq under the new ticker FRMM starting March 2. This shift marks a transition from an “ETH-on-balance-sheet” strategy to tokenized real-world assets (RWA). The decision follows a significant pullback from its 2025 high, investor exits, and reduced crypto asset exposure. The stock rose 13.3% to $3.91 after the rebranding announcement but is still down about 96% from its peak last August. #rwa link
