The proposed $1.6 billion SPAC merger between Dynamix Corporation (DYNX) and The Ether Machine has been officially terminated after both parties cited unfavorable market conditions. The agreement, originally announced in July 2025, aimed to list The Ether Machine on the Nasdaq under the ticker ETHM, positioning it as a major Ethereum focused treasury company in public markets.
According to regulatory filings submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the companies mutually agreed to end the deal. As part of the termination terms, Dynamix Corporation will receive a $50 million payment within 15 days as the transaction unwinds.
Ethereum Treasury Holdings and Planned Deal Structure
The Ether Machine is structured to function as an Ethereum treasury and yield vehicle, generating returns through staking and decentralized finance strategies while maintaining large ether reserves. The firm currently holds 496,712 ETH, valued at more than $1.1 billion, based on market pricing data.
PIPE Financing and Co-Founder Contribution Details
The original merger plan included a $1.5 billion fully committed PIPE financing, described as the largest all-common-stock raise of its kind since 2021, alongside roughly $170 million in Dynamix’s trust account. The combined company was expected to begin operations with over 400,000 ETH, supported in part by contributions from co-founder Andrew Keys.
