Solana Treasury Company SOL Strategies Gets Approval To List On Nasdaq

Highlights
- SOL Strategies receives Nasdaq approval for listing.
- This move will boost validator development and investment from institutions.
- CEO Leah Wald celebrates Nasdaq debut, calling it Solana’s biggest stage milestone.
SOL Strategies Inc. has received approval to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market. As a Solana-based treasury and infrastructure company, these will provide shareholders with greater liquidity and allow institutions to invest in the company.
Nasdaq Listing to Boost Validator Growth and Institutional Access for Solana
According to the official statement, the approval represents a major step for SOL Strategies, which invests in and builds infrastructure for the Solana blockchain. Trading will begin on September 9, 2025, under the ticker symbol STKE. This marks a milestone for both the firm and the wider Solana ecosystem.
The company will continue trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol HODL. However, its shares will no longer be listed on the OTCQB Venture Market under CYFRF once Nasdaq trading begins. OTC holders do not need to act, as shares will convert automatically.
Chief Executive Officer Leah Wald said joining Nasdaq aligns the company with the world’s most innovative technology firms. She described the move as validation not just for SOL Strategies, but for the entire Solana ecosystem. Wald added that the listing strengthens the ability of the firm to scale validator operations and access institutional capital markets. This echoes broader network upgrades such as the recently approved Solana Alpenglow proposal to boost network speed.
In a social media statement, Wald commented on how it had taken the company more than one year to reach this milestone, citing over a year of hard work, perseverance, and dedication to the company vision. She pointed out that SOL Strategies is yet to enter the full swing in its expansion and the new listing could help in this regard.
The company expects the Nasdaq debut to accelerate validator partnerships and expand staking operations as demand for Solana rises. The listing remains subject to regulatory clearance from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This includes the effectiveness of its Form 40-F registration statement.
