SOL has secured $14M in New Funding with $10M Dedicated to Additional Purchases of Solana
SOL Global Investments Corp. (CSE: SOL) (FSE: 9SB) (“SOL Global” or the “Company”), one of the first publicly traded companies focused on institutional Solana investments, has announced its latest corporate highlights and achievements that position the Company as a key player in the Solana blockchain ecosystem and as an emerging leader in venture capital.
“At SOL Global, our mission is to be one of the first companies to provide public market investors with opportunities to participate in the transformative potential of the Solana blockchain,” said Paul Kania, Interim CEO and CFO of SOL Global. “We are focused on building a Solana super company, with direct exposure to the upside of both Solana and leading-edge projects and protocols being built on the Solana blockchain. We are very excited by the quick progress we have made over the past few months to begin allocating capital to the Solana ecosystem and we truly believe this is just the beginning of an exciting growth trajectory for our company. Our recent financings have all seen strong participation from institutions and strategic investors, which we believe is validation that the traditional capital markets are highly eager for ways to get exposure to the upside of the Solana blockchain, which continues to break new records for trading volumes and fee generation.”
Key Corporate Highlights:
Financial Milestones
