Insights

Staking strategy analyst

HSDT has contracted top Solana validators to operationalize staking of its SOL treasury to earn on‑chain rewards.

HSDT will delegate SOL to Helius and Twinstake and stake directly via Anchorage Digital Bank, enabling the company to earn native staking rewards and retain voting and reporting capabilities. The arrangement leverages providers that the company identifies as top validators and includes institutional controls such as SOC 2 Type II infrastructure and regulated custody.

Key dependencies and risks include the market price of SOL, the actual net staking yield after fees, and operational execution of validator services. The press release cites a ~7% native staking yield, but net return depends on provider fees and any unanticipated downtime or slashing events. Watch for future disclosures of actual staking rewards, provider fee schedules, and formal reporting of delegated balances and realized yield in subsequent company filings and updates following Oct 23, 2025.

NEWTOWN, Pa., Oct. 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Solana Company (NASDAQ: HSDT or the “Company”) announced that it has entered into agreements with Helius and Twinstake (each, a “Provider,” and collectively, the “Providers”), related to non-custodial staking services. The Company is also staking its SOL holdings directly from qualified custody at Anchorage Digital Bank.

The Providers have developed non-custodial staking and restaking solutions that allow users to delegate, stake, and/or restake their digital assets to earn rewards. Pursuant to the agreements, the Providers will make their platforms available to the Company and provide the Company with certain services, which include staking, voting with staked tokens, and reporting with regard to the staked tokens.

“This marks an important next step in executing our digital asset treasury strategy,” said Joseph Chee, Executive Chairman of HSDT and Chairman of Summer Capital. “By staking with industry leaders like Helius and Twinstake, we are strengthening the operational backbone of our SOL holdings while contributing to the resilience and decentralization of the Solana ecosystem. Both providers rank among the top 25 validators on the Solana network by total SOL staked, signaling their established track record and strong confidence within the community.”

Cosmo Jiang, General Partner at Pantera Capital and Board Observer at HSDT, added: “These partnerships position HSDT to maximize on-chain yield in a secure, compliant and scalable manner. Partnering with top-tier validators trusted by the broader Solana community reinforces our focus on institutional-grade execution and network alignment. As Solana continues to lead in performance and adoption, we see staking as both a core part of our return generation strategy and a reinforcement of our commitment to the network’s long-term growth.”

Helius, the leading Solana validator with over 13 million SOL staked, offers institutional-grade staking services and operates SOC 2 Type II-compliant infrastructure, ensuring optimal uptime, performance and security. Twinstake and Anchorage Digital bring complementary strengths in regulated and enterprise-level staking, expanding the Company’s exposure to the broader Solana validator ecosystem.

“Crypto is connecting the internet of value,” said Mert Mumtaz, Co-founder and CEO of Helius. “Solana today is the only blockchain network with the scale to onboard all of the world’s capital markets, microtransactions, and AI payments. Together with the Solana Company, we’re accelerating institutional adoption of Solana, and building the future of the world’s trading terminal.”

Solana has historically been the fastest-growing blockchain, leading the industry in transaction revenue, and processing more than 3,500 transactions per second. The network is also the most widely adopted, with an average of around 3.7 million daily active wallets and surpassing 23 billion transactions year-to-date. SOL is financially productive by design, offering a ~7% native staking yield, whereas assets like BTC are non-yield-bearing.

As an independent treasury company, HSDT’s mission is to support the growth and security of tokenized networks by serving as a long-term holder of $SOL, in addition to continuing the development of its neurotech and medical device operations.
