Last Tuesday, ETHZilla shares in 2026 climbed more than 13%, reaching $3.91 after announcing its new name will be Forum. Initially backed by figures such as Peter Thiel, the company confirmed this identity shift to distance itself from its original strategy, which focused exclusively on accumulating Ethereum as a treasury asset.

This move comes in response to an ETH devaluation of over 50% since the firm began its purchases, forcing a restructuring of its business model. Forum is now betting on Real World Assets (RWA), acquiring portfolios of mortgage loans and aircraft engines for tokenization on Layer 2 networks, aiming to generate predictable cash flows.

The company’s ability to consolidate its tokenization platform under SEC regulation and the performance of its annualized yields exceeding 10% will be key points of interest moving forward. Although the firm remains the sixth-largest corporate holder of Ethereum, its success will now depend on operational metrics rather than just crypto market volatility.
