ETHZilla Corporation ( (ETHZ) ) just unveiled an announcement.

On February 24, 2026, the company filed a Certificate of Amendment in Delaware to change its name from ETHZilla Corporation to Forum Markets, Incorporated, with the amendment becoming effective at 12:01 a.m. EST on February 25, 2026. The board-approved change, which required no shareholder vote and leaves security holder rights and the CUSIP number unchanged, will see the stock begin trading on Nasdaq under the new ticker “FRMM” at the market open on March 2, 2026.

In tandem with the rebrand, Forum launched a new corporate website on February 25, 2026, and framed the name change as the next step in its strategic evolution into an institutional-grade digital asset platform focused on tokenizing real-world, income-generating assets on Ethereum. Management emphasized that the new identity reflects the company’s role as a regulated bridge between traditional capital markets and blockchain-based infrastructure, underpinned by a multi-pronged revenue model and recent moves such as launching the Eurus Aero Token I and acquiring a portfolio of manufactured and modular home loans for future tokenization.

The rebranding consolidates Forum’s positioning as it transitions from passively holding crypto assets to executing a broader tokenization strategy spanning sectors including auto loans, housing finance and aerospace equipment. For investors and institutional partners, the shift signals a more mature, infrastructure-centric business model aimed at defining market structure for on-chain finance and scaling access to tokenized real-world asset products.

The most recent analyst rating on (ETHZ) stock is a Hold with a $4.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ETHZilla Corporation stock, see the ETHZ Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on ETHZ Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, ETHZ is a Neutral.

Overall score is pressured most by very weak financial performance (large losses and ongoing cash burn) and bearish technicals (below key moving averages with negative MACD). Corporate actions are a relative positive—especially the convertible note redemption and strategic moves—but they do not yet offset the current profitability, cash-flow, and trend concerns.

Forum integrates traditional asset management principles with scalable digital market architecture, positioning itself as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain-based capital markets. Since launching in August 2025, it has built infrastructure, partnerships and asset pipelines across sectors such as auto loans, manufactured housing finance and aerospace equipment to support institutional-scale tokenization.
