Eightco Holdings Discloses $472 Million Treasury Spanning OpenAI Stake, 16,278 $ETH and 283 Million WLD Tokens

Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) released a full accounting of its treasury as of June 18, 2026, placing total holdings at approximately $472 million. The disclosed portfolio mixes indirect equity in two private companies — OpenAI and Beast Industries — with a crypto book of 16,278 $ETH and 283 million WLD tokens, plus $149 million in cash and equivalents. Few Nasdaq-listed companies carry a balance sheet that spans private-company equity, on-chain digital assets, and conventional cash at comparable scale.

Private-Company Equity: OpenAI and Beast Industries

OpenAI is the largest single line in the portfolio at $90 million, held through an indirect structure — meaning the position runs through an intermediary rather than as a direct entry on OpenAI's cap table. Beast Industries rounds out the private-equity allocation at $18 million, bringing the combined equity-stake total to $108 million of the approximately $472 million disclosed. Neither position trades on a public market, which concentrates the portfolio's mark-to-market flexibility in the crypto and cash lines.

On-Chain Positions: $ETH and WLD

The crypto allocation is divided between 16,278 $ETH and 283 million WLD tokens, with no per-unit dollar values provided in the announcement. The two assets belong to separate projects and represent distinct on-chain economies. Together they constitute a meaningful share of the disclosed portfolio, though absent individual asset pricing the combined dollar value as of June 18 cannot be derived from the release alone. Eightco provided no stated rationale for the composition or sizing of either position.

Cash and Equivalents

The $149 million cash-and-equivalents line accounts for roughly a third of the disclosed $472 million total and is the portfolio's most liquid component. In a balance sheet that also carries illiquid private stakes and crypto exposure subject to price movement, the cash reserve provides the primary buffer for operational and strategic flexibility. The disclosure does not specify cost basis for any line item, per-unit prices for either token holding, or intended uses of the cash reserve.
