Recognized as the first publicly traded company to adopt a treasury strategy focused exclusively on Solana, DFDV has maintained a consistent purchasing trajectory since early 2025. In July, it surpassed the 1 million SOL mark after acquiring more than 141 tokens for approximately US$19 million.
The company uses its own $5 billion credit line to finance the acquisitions, of which less than 1% has been mobilized so far. Almost all of the acquired amount is currently staked through various validators, including its own framework. Some revenue also comes from third-party delegators using its validated infrastructure.
The company claims that SOL offers operational advantages over Bitcoin, primarily due to its potential for generating staking returns. In its words: "SOL is a more productive asset than Bitcoin because it can yield staking rewards."
The results reflect the strategy's success. In the second quarter, revenue reached $1,98 million—a significant increase from the $400 recorded the previous year. Net income totaled $15,4 million, reversing a previous loss of $800. Internal estimates indicate that staking assets on validators generates approximately $63 per day.
In addition to operating its own structure, DFDV launched Treasury Accelerator, an international franchise initiative aimed at creating SOL reserves for other companies, in which DFDV acquires equity.
Solana has been gaining traction in the institutional sector. In addition to DFDV, other companies such as Upexi and BIT Mining have been increasing their allocations. In total, eight entities collectively hold approximately 5,9 million SOL—approximately US$1,09 billion—representing just over 1% of the network's total supply.
