Joseph Lubin, Ethereum co-founder and CEO of Consensys, praised Ethereum treasury companies at the 2026 Consensus conference, highlighting the digital asset treasury (DAT) model as a significant innovation. Lubin identified Strategy, SharpLink, and BitMine as key stewards of the Ethereum ecosystem, emphasizing the value of well-executed treasury projects to both the crypto and traditional financial sectors. However, he cautioned against the "mindless imitation" of DATs on unstable tokens or ecosystems, warning of potential harm to the broader crypto landscape.
