SOL Strategies Achieves Nasdaq Listing

  • SOL Strategies is the first Solana treasury company to reach Nasdaq.
  • The firm focuses on validator operations and holds over 420,000 SOL tokens valued at approximately $61.32 million.
  • CEO Leah Wald highlighted this milestone as a way to attract institutional investors to the Solana ecosystem.
  • Company operations include direct SOL token acquisition, validator node operations for staking rewards, and strategic investments within Solana.
  • Generated over $2.5 million in staking revenue in Q2 2025, but remains unprofitable due to high costs.
  • Has secured a $500 million convertible note facility and plans to raise up to $1 billion CAD through a preliminary base shelf prospectus.

Stock Performance

  • SOL Strategies stock surged over 1,775% on the CSE in the past year.
  • The Nasdaq transition is expected to improve liquidity and access to capital markets.
  • This trend reflects a broader movement of crypto companies seeking US exchange listings, with other firms like Circle and eToro also making similar transitions.
