Filed by The Ether Machine, Inc.

pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,

and deemed filed pursuant to Rule 14a-12

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended

Subject Company: The Ether Machine, Inc.

Commission File No.: 132-02877

As previously disclosed, on July 21, 2025, Dynamix Corporation ("<u>SPAC</u>") and The Ether Machine, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Pubco</u>") entered into a Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 21, 2025, with ETH SPAC Merger Sub Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, The Ether Reserve LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the "<u>Company</u>"), Ethos Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SPAC ("<u>SPAC Subsidiary A</u>"), Ethos Sub 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SPAC Subsidiary A ("<u>SPAC Subsidiary B</u>"), Ethos Sub 3, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SPAC Subsidiary B, and ETH Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

Pubco emailed the following investor letter to investors on December 18, 2025 and intends to post the letter on the "Investor Updates" section of its website on or after December 18, 2025:

Greetings Machinists,

We received our confidential S-4 comments back from the SEC on Thursday, December 4, and anticipate a quick turnaround on our responses, followed by the shareholder vote and go-live of The Ether Machine, Inc. in Q1 2026.

As we move toward the close of the merger and our public debut, it's important to be precise about how The Ether Machine operates. We are **not** structured as a Digital Asset Treasury (DAT), which typically implies a passive, "buy-and-hold" approach to crypto exposure. Instead, we operate as an **Institutional Ethereum Operating Company** with active management, planned structured-finance product issuance, and cash-flow–generating operations.

Our assets will be managed across onchain staking, restaking, and selective participation in decentralized finance, which we will combine with financial instruments we can issue as a public vehicle. From day one, we expect to be an operating business with real activity and real yield—not a static balance-sheet vehicle.

Ether Machine Developments

***ETHM Performance and Yield***

As of November 30, 2025, Ether Machine's treasury totaled approximately **$369M of pro forma cash at closing**, plus **498,600 pro forma ETH** (valued at **$1.4 billion**).

All ETH in our custody remains live onchain and generating yield. [Over the last month, The Ether Machine validators had a **rewards performance score of 99.89%** placing them in the **top 2% of Ethereum validators**. This translated into an **annualized yield of 2.75%** versus a network average of 2.705%, as calculated independently by MigaLabs. This performance underscores the strength of our validator operations and our readiness to add ETH yield at institutional scale, further strengthening our ability to compound **Ether-per-share (ETHPS).**

***ETHM Brand Momentum and Market Awareness***

November brought continued institutional and media traction ahead of our full launch, including coverage in *The Block* and *Bloomberg TV*. Team members also spoke at and/or attended **SALT London**, the **Cantor Crypto & AI/Energy Infrastructure Conference**, the **Clear Street Disruptive Technology Conference**, and **New York Blockchain Week**. These touchpoints are part of our broader effort to position ETHM as the leading institutional gateway to Ethereum.

Market Developments

***Fusaka Ethereum Upgrade***

A major Ethereum network upgrade, **"Fusaka,"** successfully went live on December 3rd as part of Ethereum's regular cycle of named upgrades (Istanbul, London, Shanghai, Dencun, etc.), where multiple Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) are bundled into one release. Each of these upgrades pushes Ethereum further along its long-term roadmap: handling more transactions (through rollups and "blobs" — binary large objects of data), improving user experience and security, and doing all of this while keeping the network decentralized.

Fusaka followed this pattern, with a particular focus on making data cheaper and more scalable for rollups and making Ethereum work more naturally with the security hardware already built into iPhones and Android devices.

Fusaka's main scaling change was **EIP-7594 (PeerDAS)**, which upgraded how Ethereum handles data coming from rollups. Before Fusaka, every validator needed to download full "blob" data, which is heavy and limits how much data the network can safely process. With PeerDAS, nodes can instead sample small pieces of this data from many peers to check that it's really available. This greatly cuts down bandwidth and storage requirements per node while allowing total blob capacity to increase. In simple terms: **Ethereum can now support more rollup transactions without making it harder to run a node**, which pushes data costs down for Layer-2s and gives them room to grow usage and volume.

On the user-experience side, **EIP-7951** added native support for the **secp256r1 (P-256)** curve—the signing standard used by Apple's Secure Enclave on iPhone/iPad and by Android's Keystore/StrongBox, as well as WebAuthn/FIDO2 "passkeys." Previously, those chips could not be used directly to sign Ethereum transactions because Ethereum used a different curve (secp256k1), making verification onchain expensive and clunky. After Fusaka, EIP-7951 made verifying iOS/Android/passkey signatures cheap and standardized at the protocol level.

This opens the door to wallets where users simply tap FaceID or a fingerprint on the phones they already own—no seed phrase, no browser extension, no separate hardware device— with the potential to effectively turn **billions of smartphones into secure Ethereum wallets**.

Together, these changes are structurally positive for ETH over the long term. On the supply–demand side, EIP-7594 increases the activity Ethereum can support via Layer-2s while keeping Layer-2 fees low and predictable, encouraging more transactions and applications and, in turn, more demand for Ethereum Layer-1 blockspace paid in ETH. At the same time, EIP-7951 reduces friction for everyday iPhone and Android users and makes it easier for mainstream apps and enterprises to integrate Ethereum without building custom key infrastructure.

As more users, capital, and activity move onto Ethereum and its rollups, we expect stronger fee revenues (and thus higher real yields to stakers after burns) and a deeper moat versus competing Layer-1s. We see these as supports for a **higher long-run value for ETH**, even though short-term price action will still depend on macro, regulation, and broader crypto market cycles.

***CLARITY Act***

On the legislative front, after the passage of the **GENIUS Act** greenlit stablecoin usage in July 2025, all eyes are now on the **CLARITY Act**. This proposed market-structure framework would assign most cryptocurrencies that run on sufficiently decentralized, "mature" blockchains to regulation as "digital commodities" by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), rather than as securities by the SEC—clarifying registration, disclosure, and compliance requirements for exchanges, brokers, and dealers. In addition, CFTC regulations and CFTC oversight and enforcement authority would apply with respect to futures, swaps, other derivative products and certain retail leveraged commodity transactions involving digital asset commodities, including the markets on which these products trade. We believe it could pass in early 2026.

Within this framework, Ethereum is effectively the reference model for a **"mature blockchain system"**: open-source, widely held, governed by transparent rules, and not controlled by any single party. Over the past several years, we have consistently viewed Ethereum as a digital commodity, not a security, based on prior public commentary from U.S. regulators and the way the network actually functions in the market. Statements from both commodities and securities regulators have long differentiated sufficiently decentralized, functional base-layer networks like Ethereum from traditional equity-like securities, and our portfolio construction has reflected that view. The CLARITY Act formalizes and codifies what we already believe to be true about ETH's regulatory status. As such, we expect ETH to be continuously treated as a digital commodity under the CLARITY Act, if it becomes law, with primary oversight by the CFTC for spot digital commodities. We believe that added statutory clarity reduces headline risk around plain-vanilla ETH exposure and provides a more stable foundation for the continued growth of compliant spot, futures, and structured products referencing Ethereum.

Most importantly, we believe passage of the CLARITY Act would accelerate **real-world asset (RWA) tokenization** on Ethereum and its Layer-2 ecosystem. As issuers and institutions gain confidence that base-layer ETH sits firmly in the commodity bucket, we expect greater willingness to issue and settle tokenized stocks, bonds, money-market instruments, funds, and other financial contracts on Ethereum rails. This shift—traditional capital-markets instruments moving onto Ethereum for 24/7, programmable settlement—would likely drive structurally higher demand for blockspace, increase transaction and data usage, and further entrench Ethereum as a core piece of global financial market infrastructure. As SEC Chairman Paul Atkins noted in a Fox Business interview on December 6th, "within two years, all U.S. markets will be on chain. That's the trajectory we're on. It will bring efficiency, transparency, and 24/7 global access that traditional markets just can't match." A notable recent example is Amundi, Europe's largest asset manager with over $2.5T in AUM, which launched a tokenized share class of its euro money-market fund directly on Ethereum. We view this as an early signal of the kind of mainstream financial infrastructure that becomes possible when regulatory clarity aligns with scalable, production-ready public blockchains.

We hope you and your families have a healthy and happy holiday season, and we look forward to building The Ether Machine together with you in the year ahead.

Best wishes,

Andrew Keys
