SOL Strategies is evaluating the possibility of issuing tokenized shares on the Solana blockchain through a partnership with Superstate, a blockchain infrastructure firm. The initiative, announced on April 25, 2025, follows a non-binding memorandum of understanding aimed at leveraging Superstate’s newly launched “Opening Bell” platform to assess the feasibility of bringing regulated equity on-chain.

— SOL Strategies (CSE: HODL | OTCQB: CYFRF) (@solstrategies_) May 8, 2025
SOL Strategies is working to become the FIRST public company to bring registered shares on Solana through @superstatefunds' Opening Bell platform.
We believe tokenized equity represents the natural evolution of capital markets, and we're excited to pioneer this…
If successful, SOL Strategies would become one of the first publicly traded companies to explore equity tokenization on a public blockchain. The company, known for its role as an active validator and ecosystem contributor within the Solana network, aims to bridge institutional trust with decentralized finance.
Superstate’s Role in Equity Tokenization
Superstate is expected to act as a junior transfer agent, responsible for converting SOL Strategies’ common shares into digital tokens. These tokens would be managed on the Solana blockchain, benefiting from the network’s scalability, low-cost transactions, and real-time settlement capabilities.
The “Opening Bell” platform, which debuted alongside the announcement, seeks to modernize equity markets by integrating SEC-registered shares into public blockchain networks. This initiative aligns with the broader industry trend of reducing transaction delays and increasing market transparency through blockchain technology.

Broader Industry Momentum in Tokenized Finance
The move by SOL Strategies coincides with rising interest in tokenized finance across the industry. Robinhood is reportedly preparing to launch tokenized stock trading for EU users, potentially using Solana or Arbitrum. Meanwhile, BlackRock recently expanded its digital liquidity fund, BUIDL, to the Solana blockchain, enabling institutional investors to access U.S. Treasury-backed yields through on-chain protocols.
While SOL Strategies has not yet committed to a definitive timeline or financial investment in the initiative, the exploration of tokenized shares reflects a growing focus on blockchain-based solutions in traditional finance. Regulatory approvals remain pending, and further developments will likely depend on ongoing discussions with financial authorities and institutional stakeholders.
