The acquisition marks a key strategic expansion of DeFi Dev Corp.’s role within the Solana network – allowing the Company to directly earn SOL rewards in exchange for validating transactions and securing the network.“This acquisition doesn’t just add a new line of protocol-native cashflow, it amplifies our alignment with the infrastructure underpinning tomorrow’s decentralized economy,” said Parker White, CIO and COO of DeFi Dev Corp. “Owning and operating validators with significant delegated stake puts us at the core of Solana – while furthering our mission of effectively accumulating SOL to deliver superior risk-adjusted returns relative to holding SOL directly.”
