These initial purchases will mark the first step in building Solmate’s Solana-based digital asset treasury, which aims to drive shareholder value through the accumulation and staking of $SOL, and the development of new revenue streams from advanced Solana staking infrastructure. Through its planned bare metal servers in Abu Dhabi, Solmate seeks to provide regional investors with the opportunity to capitalize on Solana’s native yield-generating capabilities while supporting the growth of the Solana ecosystem and aligning with the UAE’s digital transformation agenda.
Marco Santori, CEO of Solmate said, "Solmate offers a differentiated investment proposition, from our unparalleled proximity to capital, to our discounted entry price for SOL, to our high-performance staking platform leveraging the unique capabilities of the Solana blockchain. Our investment in bare metal servers in Abu Dhabi enables us to deliver superior validation performance and native yield generation that few others can match. This approach aims to create real value for our shareholders and contributes to the broader adoption of Solana, particularly in a strategic region like the UAE, which is rapidly becoming a global hub for blockchain innovation.”
