Public Company Secures $5 Billion Credit Line to Accumulate Solana (SOL), Fueling Institutional Optimism
DeFi Development Corp, a Nasdaq-listed firm, has obtained a $5 billion equity line of credit to expand its SOL reserves, signaling strong institutional confidence in Solana''s long-term value proposition. The flexible funding arrangement allows strategic accumulation of the altcoin amid favorable market conditions.
Solana''s current price—50% below its February 2025 peak—presents a potential buying opportunity as traditional market access expands. The SEC''s recent request for amended S-1 filings from SOL ETF applicants suggests regulatory approval could unlock new capital inflows by July.

FTX Continues Solana Unstaking Amid Market Volatility
FTX has unstaked and sold $31.5 million worth of Solana (SOL) tokens, continuing a monthly pattern that began in November 2023. The defunct exchange''s estate has offloaded $1.094 billion in SOL through systematic redemptions, transferring tokens to various addresses before selling them on major exchanges like Binance and Coinbase.
Despite these sales, FTX retains approximately 5.046 million SOL staked—valued at $726 million at current prices. The latest transaction coincided with an 8% drop in SOL''s value, mirroring broader market declines triggered by geopolitical tensions following Israel''s strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.
Market-wide repercussions saw crypto''s total capitalization fall 3.21%, with traditional indices like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also dipping. SOL briefly plunged from $160 to $141 before recovering to $146, demonstrating characteristic volatility during risk-off events.
