Classover Secures $500M Solana Treasury Deal Amid Liquidity Crunch
Classover Holdings Inc., a $63 million-valued edtech firm, has inked a $500 million convertible note deal with Solana Growth Ventures to shore up its SOL-denominated treasury reserves. The move comes as the company grapples with acute liquidity pressures, evidenced by a precarious 0.02 current ratio.
The structured agreement mandates that 80% of proceeds be allocated to SOL acquisitions, building on Classover’s existing $1.05 million position. This follows an earlier $400 million equity raise, potentially creating a $900 million war chest for Solana investments.
"This marks a strategic pivot toward blockchain-integrated finance," CEO Ms. Luo remarked, with Chardan Capital advising on the transaction. The notes convert to equity at twice the pre-deal share price, creating aligned incentives for investors.

Solana Shows Signs of Rebound as Technical Indicators Flash Buy Signal
