SOL STRATEGIES JANUARY 2026 MONTHLY BUSINESS UPDATE
Company surpasses 31,000 unique wallets, 4 million SOL in assets under delegation (AuD), and launches institutional-grade liquid staking platform
TORONTO, February 5, 2026 - SOL Strategies Inc. (CSE: HODL) (NASDAQ: STKE) ("SOL Strategies" or the "Company"), one of the first publicly traded companies dedicated to growing and building the Solana Economy, today announced a comprehensive corporate update for the month of January 2026.
Validator Network Milestones: On February 2, 2026 SOL Strategies announced it has surpassed 31,000 unique wallet addresses (Active Users) delegating to its validator network and 4 million in SOL assets under delegation (AuD). The dual milestones represent 105% growth in unique wallet adoption since September 2025 and mark continued expansion of the Company's institutional and retail delegator base.
STKESOL Liquid Staking Platform Launch: On January 20, 2026, SOL Strategies announced the launch of STKESOL, a liquid staking token enabling SOL holders to earn staking rewards while maintaining liquidity for use across Solana decentralized finance applications. Traditional staking requires locking tokens to specific validators to earn rewards, rendering assets illiquid. STKESOL resolves this by issuing a liquid token representing staked SOL plus accrued rewards, allowing holders to deploy capital across DeFi protocols while simultaneously earning staking yields from a diversified set of validators.
In the first two weeks following launch, the platform attracted over 680,000 SOL in inflows, delegated to over 50 validators, and secured integrations with prominent DeFi platforms including Kamino, Squads, Jupiter, and Orca. STKESOL employs the audited SPL Stake Pool program and implements automated delegation across dozens of validators based on performance metrics, reducing concentration risk while supporting network decentralization.
Management views the launch as a strategic step to capture growing demand for institutional-grade liquid staking solutions while the addition of a new staking product line reinforces SOL Strategies' role as a core infrastructure provider within the Solana ecosystem.
