This Hot SPAC Stock Is Joining the Ethereum Treasury Battle. Should You Buy Shares Now?
Dynamix Corporation (DYNX) surged nearly 17% on Monday, July 21 after announcing its merger with The Ether Machine, expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2025. The deal aims to create the largest public vehicle for institutional Ethereum (ETHUSD) exposure, trading under the ticker ETHM. The Ether Machine is led by co-founder Andrew Keys with a $645 million anchor investment. It plans to focus on yield generation through 'staking' rather than just holding Ethereum. This approach enables the company to earn dividends by contributing to Ethereum network operations, a feature that current spot Ethereum ETFs do not offer.

Sign Up Now! 'Ether produces yield if it's properly managed,' Keys explained, emphasizing Ethereum's advantages over Bitcoin (BTCUSD) in tokenizing various assets and enabling faster transaction processing. The company joins an emerging cohort seeking to become 'the MicroStrategy of Ethereum,' including Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) and SharpLink Gaming (SBET). With backing from major crypto investors like Pantera Capital, Electric Capital, and 10T Holdings, The Ether Machine enters a hot market in which Ethereum has doubled in value over the past three months and ETFs have recently posted record weekly inflows of $2.18 billion. The Ether Machine Announces $1.6 Billion SPAC Merger The Ether Machine is led by blockchain veterans with deep Ethereum expertise. Co-Founder and Chairman Andrew Keys previously helped create the first Ethereum blockchain as a service with Microsoft (MSFT) and co-founded the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. CEO David Merin led over $700 million in fundraising at Consensys, while CTO Tim Lowe pioneered institutional staking platforms. The team also includes DeFi expert Darius Przydzial and PayPal (PYPL) board member Jonathan Christodoro as vice chairman. The Ether Machine intends to operate as an Ethereum generation company with three core objectives: generating alpha through staking, restaking, and DeFi protocols; catalyzing the Ethereum ecosystem through partnerships and research; and building infrastructure solutions for institutions and Ethereum projects. Key highlights of the SPAC deal include: Andrew Keys' $645 million anchor investment (169,984 ETH) Over $800 million in institutional backing Expected gross proceeds exceeding $1.6 billion Launch with over 400,000 ETH on the balance sheet Unlike existing Ethereum ETFs that simply hold spot Ethereum, The Ether Machine focuses on yield generation through staking and DeFi strategies. 'We have assembled a team of 'Ethereum Avengers' to actively manage and unlock yields to levels we believe will be market-leading for investors,' Keys said. The timing capitalizes on regulatory clarity and growing institutional appetite for blockchain technology, with the company expected to set new standards for digital asset excellence. Investors should note that as with other SPAC stocks, analysts do not provide ratings or price targets on Dynamix.

REMUS 620 Validated for Torpedo Tube Deployment
Joint Team Hits Key Milestone in Submarine-Launched UUV Ops POCASSET, Mass., July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A joint team from HII (NYSE: HII), Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), and U.S. Navy's Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) recently completed a major milestone in advancing the U.S. Navy Submarine Force's initiative to launch and recover autonomous undersea vehicles from submarine torpedo tubes. A test by the joint team confirmed the compatibility of the REMUS 620 with the SAFECAP, Virginia-class submarine weapons handling and torpedo tube systems, and other critical interfaces. 'This clears the way for continued testing in advance of an in-water end-to-end launch and recovery at a U.S. Navy test fixture facility later this summer,' said Adrian Gonsalves, HII's REMUS 620 product lead. Rick Thornton, NUWCDIVNPT Code 459, stated, 'Our team appreciated the early coordination with HII and WHOI. The REMUS 620 team arrived ready to go, and all events were executed safely and efficiently with good information exchange throughout. Much appreciate the full test team for its efforts.' A photo accompanying this release is available at: HII's next-generation medium uncrewed underwater vehicle (MUUV) fitted with WHOI's Yellow Moray docking technology, successfully completed a full end-to-end dry checkout of the Autonomous Underwater Vehicle/Shock and Fire Enclosure Capsule (AUV/SAFECAP) "All-Up Round" (AUR) in the Virginia-class Cradle Payload Integration Facility (VCCPIF) and its Mk71 torpedo tube. This follows USS Delaware (SSN 791), built by HII, successfully completing the first-ever forward-deployed launch and recovery of a UUV via submarine torpedo tube with the Yellow Moray equipped REMUS 600 UUV. HII is expanding the U.S. Navy's undersea dominance and range with state-of-the-art REMUS technology and delivery. About the REMUS UUV The REMUS UUV family delivers critical advantages across modern naval operations and the autonomous systems have been proven to operate independently or in conjunction with crewed platforms — such as Virginia-class nuclear submarines — to extend mission range, reduce detection risk, and limit personnel exposure. The REMUS open-architecture design allows rapid payload integration, enabling mission-specific configurations and future tech insertions — key factors in maintaining operational relevance and cost efficiency over time. To date, HII has sold more than 700 REMUS vehicles to over 30 countries, including 14 NATO members. Notably, over 90% of REMUS units delivered in the past 23 years remain in service, demonstrating platform durability and lifecycle value — both critical in defense acquisition decision-making. About HII HII is a global, all-domain defense provider. HII's mission is to deliver the world's most powerful ships and all-domain solutions in service of the nation, creating the advantage for our customers to protect peace and freedom around the world. As the nation's largest military shipbuilder, and with a more than 135-year history of advancing U.S. national security, HII delivers critical capabilities extending from ships to unmanned systems, cyber, ISR, AI/ML and synthetic training.
