The company will distribute a one-time dividend of $0.05 per share to eligible shareholders, who can choose between ETH or cash; at the same time, an additional $0.35 loyalty reward per share will be granted, which can only be claimed.

The US-listed blockchain company BTCS Inc. (BTCS) recently announced that it will pay a one-time dividend and "loyalty payment" to shareholders in Ether (ETH), becoming one of the first American companies to use crypto assets as dividend payments.

A "Bividend" dividend of $0.05 per share (paid in ETH) 2. A "Loyalty Payment" of $0.35 per share (paid in ETH, subject to conditions) To receive the loyalty bonus, shareholders must keep their shares deposited with the company's transfer agent for at least 120 days. BTCS indicates that this will reduce the likelihood of the shares being lent out for short selling and protect the stocks.

On the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Ethereum's launch, co-founder Vitalik Buterin emphasized the network's core goal of "Never Goes Down" and reaffirmed its mission as the foundation for human progress and digital autonomy. Several industry leaders look ahead to the next decade: Ethereum will transform from a smart contracts platform into the underlying infrastructure of the global economy, driving asset digitization and enterprise-level adoption. The trend of institutions accumulating coins continues to heat up, with public companies such as BitMine (Holdings of 625,000 ETH), Sharplink (438,000 ETH), Bit Digital (100,000 ETH), and BTCS (70,000 ETH) significantly increasing their ETH holdings, and BitMine plans to acquire 5% of the total ETH supply.
