DeFi Dev Corp Expands Solana Holdings Amid Price Dip
In a recent press release, DeFi Development Corp. announced it had acquired 196,141 SOL at an average price of $202.76 per token. This increased its total reserves to 2,027,817 SOL. The latest purchase, representing an 11% boost to its balance sheet, places the firm’s holdings at around $427 million.
With more than 25.5 million shares outstanding, DeFi Dev Corp’s Solana position translates to 0.0793 SOL per share, valued at $16.70. The company emphasized that these tokens will be held in a long-term investment and staked across validators to generate additional yield.
The latest move comes just a week after the DeFi Dev Corp invested $77 million into 407,247 SOL at an average price of $188.98. It lifted its holdings at the time to 1.83 million tokens worth $371 million.
DeFi Dev Corp’s move to buy the dip followed a minor correction in SOL’s market price. Solana fell 1.45%, trading at $204.11 after touching $217.84 on September 3. The decline came on the heels of a 35% monthly rally and appears tied to profit-taking and increased whale activity.
