SOL STRATEGIES NOVEMBER 2025 MONTHLY BUSINESS UPDATE
SOL Global Investments Corp. has provided a comprehensive corporate update for the month of November, 2025.
November, 2025, corporate highlights
Sol Strategies selected as staking provider for VanEck Solana ETF: On Nov. 17, the company announced that it has been selected as a staking provider for the VanEck Solana ETF. One of the most high-profile Solana-based exchange-traded products, the ETF (exchange-traded fund) is expected to serve institutional and retail investors globally. The ETF will utilize Sol Strategies' Orangefin validator, which operates with an institutional-grade security and compliance framework, including holding ISO 27001 and SOC 1/SOC 2 Type 2 certifications. The company believes this mandate represents a validation of its operational excellence and reinforces its strategic positioning within the Solana ecosystem as a premier institutional infrastructure provider.
Industry engagement: The company participated in the Cantor Crypto Conference and Clear Street Disruptive Technology Conference in November, engaging with potential institutional and strategic partners.
Debt repayment and restructuring through defi (decentralized finance): In October, the company repaid $3-million of its credit facility with former chairman, Tony Guoga. In November, the company restructured an additional $4-million of this credit facility through a defi loan secured by jitoSOL through Kamino Finance, reducing borrowing costs while continuing to earn staking rewards on the collateral. These transactions reflect the company's continuing balance sheet management and utilization of Solana-based financial infrastructure.
