Canadian cryptocurrency company Sol Strategies recently significantly increased its holdings of Solana (SOL), significantly boosting the position of Solana’s cryptocurrency. As of January 31, 2025, the company and its subsidiaries held 189,968 SOL with an average purchase price of $179 per token, with a total market value of nearly $40 million.
Meanwhile, Sol Strategies announced that its Chief Information Officer, Moe Adham, resigned on January 30 due to his family’s relocation to Tokyo. The significant increase in Solana holdings by this Canadian company, along with recent personnel changes, allows investors to monitor industry trends, especially since the company is a holding company for long-term investments in the Solana ecosystem. For Solana investors, this type of news can serve as a reference for market dynamics.
According to a press release issued on January 31, during the period from January 19 to January 31, Sol Strategies made additional purchases of 40,300 SOL for a total of approximately $9.93 million, with an average purchase price of $246.53. In addition, the company also completed a second round of $2.5 million in private placement of convertible debentures, with a total yield of 6,564.47 SOL.
Sol Strategies, formerly known as Cypherpunk Holdings, is a long-term investor in the Solana blockchain and its ecosystem. The company’s CEO, Leah Wald, has stated that Sol Strategies is like an exposure channel for Solana, similar to companies like MARA (Marathon Digital Holdings) in the Bitcoin mining industry, integrating development and investment into one company.
Sol Strategies, a cryptocurrency holding company
Sol Strategies has a market value of approximately CAD 635 million and is a cryptocurrency holding company headquartered in Toronto, Canada. It focuses on investing in cryptocurrency-related assets, with a particular emphasis on projects and assets related to the Solana blockchain and its ecosystem. The company was originally named Cypherpunk Holdings and aims to achieve capital appreciation by holding and managing cryptocurrency assets, actively participating in the development of blockchain technology and related ecosystems.
Sol Strategies primarily invests in Solana (SOL) and participates in the development of the Solana blockchain by holding a large amount of SOL, considering it as a long-term value-adding business model. The company’s operating model is similar to Bitcoin mining company MARA (Marathon Digital Holdings), which is considered to indirectly hold Bitcoin stocks.
