Peter Thiel's Founders Fund has completely divested its stake in digital asset treasury firm ETHZilla amid a crypto market downturn.Summary
Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund has fully divested its ownership in ETHZilla, a digital asset treasury firm holding Ethereum (ETH), according to recent SEC filings showing zero ownership by the end of 2025. This move comes as digital asset treasury firms face significant pressure due to the broader crypto market slump, which saw Ethereum drop substantially in Q4 2025 and early 2026. ETHZilla itself, which once held over 100,000 ETH, has already reduced its holdings through significant sales in October and December to manage debt and buy back shares. The company is now pivoting its strategy, with a subsidiary seeking to offer tokenized exposure to leased jet engines.
