TORONTO, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - DeFi Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies") (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B) (OTC: DEFTF), a crypto-native technology company at the forefront of merging traditional capital markets with decentralized finance ("DeFi"), is pleased to announce the launch of SolFi Technologies (www.solfitech.co), a new pure-play investment vehicle dedicated to providing traditional investors with specific access to the expanding Solana ("SOL") ecosystem. This partnership represents a significant milestone for both companies, offering a unique gateway to Solana's DeFi-driven growth and staking cash flows directly through brokerage accounts.

SolFi Technologies aims to generate consistent cash flow at higher yields than third-party staking providers, with these yields reinvested or distributed to its shareholders as dividends, enhancing returns and compounding growth. As a cornerstone shareholder and partner, DeFi Technologies will benefit from increased exposure to Solana's performance, unlocking new growth potential and revenue streams that complement its existing portfolio.

SolFi Technologies is designed to act as a "MicroStrategy for Solana," providing leveraged access to Solana's high-yield staking and capital appreciation potential. Through innovative capital structures unavailable to ETFs, SolFi offers investors both token upside and cash flow opportunities, capitalizing on Solana's rapid adoption and enabling investors to potentially outperform the underlying asset.

SolFi Technologies' Strategic Objectives

SolFi Technologies' strategy is anchored in acquiring and staking Solana tokens, utilizing DeFi Technologies' validator and proprietary MEV engine—proven with over C$508 million (US$365 million) of staked Solana—to drive industry-leading yield generation. The staking cash flows generated will be reinvested or distributed to shareholders, maximizing returns and compounding growth.

  • Proprietary Trading and Treasury Strategy: SolFi Technologies will use advanced trading algorithms and creative financing structures to acquire and hold SOL, implementing strategies that maximize operational cash flow and ensure long-term value creation for shareholders.
  • Validator Node Operations: SolFi Technologies will operate a high-performance validator node on the Solana network, leveraging the MEV engine to optimize staking yields and enhance network performance. SolFi will reinvest cash flows from its high-yield staking to support its treasury strategy.
  • Operating Company: SolFi Technologies will seek bolt-on acquisitions of operating companies to diversify cash flows and accelerate its treasury and staking strategy.
  • Ecosystem Investments: Through its dedicated venture arm, SolFi will invest in innovative projects and leading teams within the Solana ecosystem.

CEO of DeFi Technologies, Olivier Roussy Newton commented: "We are excited for DeFi Technologies to be a shareholder of and partner with SolFi Technologies in this Solana-focused venture. The success of Microstrategy has elevated exposure to the #1 digital asset in Bitcoin, and we look forward to focusing SolFi's digital asset strategy towards Solana from the ground-up. Like Microstrategy, SolFi will generate cash flow from an operating company, and tap capital markets for creative financing structures that allows SolFi to quickly grow its treasury and accelerate its staking operations. Together with SolFi Technologies, we are confident that we will drive value for our shareholders and help shape the future of blockchain technology."

  • Price Growth: In 2024, Solana's token (SOL) saw a more than tenfold increase, rising from US$20 in January to US$218 by November.
  • Liquidity: Solana maintains robust liquidity, with 24-hour trading volumes regularly exceeding US$4 billion.
  • Strategic Partnerships: Major tech companies, including PayPal, Stripe, Google, and Shopify, have integrated with Solana, validating its status as a highly scalable, low-cost blockchain.

Solana's ecosystem has rapidly expanded with the rise of DeFi platforms and other decentralized applications. With key projects like Serum, Raydium, and Audius driving this growth, Solana is now a preferred choice for developers and investors seeking a scalable, cost-effective blockchain infrastructure.
