TLDR

  • Quantum Solutions sold 1,000 ETH for $1.903 million on July 30.
  • The Tokyo-listed company will use the money for its AI Infrastructure Data Center business.
  • The sale is expected to create a loss of about ยฅ17 million.
  • Quantum raised its ETH sale limit from 1,875 tokens to 4,375 tokens.
  • The firm still holds 4,764.80 ETH, and 3,050 of those tokens are pledged as loan collateral.

Quantum Solutions sold 1,000 ETH for $1.903 million on July 30. The sale went through its subsidiary, GPT Pals Studio Limited.

The company plans to put the money toward its AI Infrastructure Data Center business. This includes GPU equipment, data center agreements, and other operating costs.

The sale lowered Quantumโ€™s ETH balance to 4,764.80 tokens. It also created an expected loss of about ยฅ17 million for the second quarter of its fiscal year, which ends in February 2027.

New Sale Limit Set

Quantum raised the maximum amount of ETH it can sell. The limit went from 1,875 tokens to 4,375 tokens.

After two sales totaling 1,904 ETH, the company can still sell up to 2,471 more tokens before October 30. Quantum said the higher limit does not mean it has decided to sell that full amount.

Future sales will depend on funding needs, market conditions, and progress on its data center plans.

The first sale happened on June 16. GPT Pals sold 904 ETH at $1,777.07 each, raising about $1.606 million.

That sale left the group with 5,764.80 ETH and an expected loss of about ยฅ18 million.

Quantum uses fair value accounting for its crypto holdings. This means it compares a sale price to the tokenโ€™s most recent recorded value, not the original purchase price.

The company had marked its ETH at $2,003.97 each on May 31. The July sale price was $1,903 per token, a gap of $100.97 per coin.

Most ETH Tied Up as Collateral

Quantum still holds 4,764.80 ETH after the latest sale. But most of it is not free to sell right away.

Of that total, 3,050 ETH is pledged as collateral for a loan from a Singapore based financial company. Only 1,714.80 ETH sits in GPT Palsโ€™ trading account.

This means Quantum may need to release collateral, buy more ETH, or arrange new financing before it can sell the rest of its authorized amount.

Quantumโ€™s ETH holdings have dropped by about 28.6% since before its June sale, when the company held 6,668.80 tokens.

The companyโ€™s ranking among Japanese ETH holders is unclear right now. One tracker lists Def Consulting with 4,976 ETH, ahead of Quantum, while another tracker shows a lower figure for the same company.

Other firms have also cut their ETH positions this year. FG Nexus reduced its holdings in June as losses grew.

At the same time, larger holders such as BitMine and SharpLink kept buying ETH during the same period.

Quantum said it will report any future sales that require public disclosure. Its next scheduled update comes around October 10, when it releases second quarter results.

That report will show the recognized losses from this sale, updated ETH totals, and any new spending on its AI data center plans before the current sale authorization expires on October 30.
