Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko's current net worth is estimated to be between $500 million and $1.2 billion.
PANews, February 14—According to Arkham's analysis report on the net worth and on-chain holdings of Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko in 2026, Yakovenko's personal wealth is estimated to be between $500 million and $1.2 billion, mainly derived from his holdings of SOL tokens and equity in Solana Labs. His wealth is closely tied to the market price of Solana.
At Solana's genesis, 500 million SOL were minted, with 12.5% allocated to the founding team. The market generally speculates that address 9QgXq is associated with Yakovenko; this wallet holds over 136,000 SOL (about $11 million). Between August and November 2024, this account unstaked and transferred over 3 million SOL, of which more than 1.5 million were restaked to new addresses. If these addresses also belong to Yakovenko, his SOL holdings would be worth approximately $122 million. Additionally, the address owning the domain toly.sol, which is linked to his X username "Toly," holds about $16,500 in liquid assets.
Yakovenko holds about 5-10% equity in Solana Labs. Solana Labs has received investments from institutions such as a16z, Polychain Capital, and Multicoin Capital, with an estimated valuation between $5 billion and $8 billion, making his equity worth about $250 million to $800 million. He has also invested as an angel investor in more than 40 Solana ecosystem projects, including Jito Labs, Drift Protocol, and Helius.

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that there are "ways" to implement the plan without increasing the deficit, but did not disclose specific cost-offset measures.
