Janover, a Florida-based fintech company, recently announced the acquisition of an additional 80,567 Solana (SOL), valued at approximately $10.5 million. The latest purchase marks one of the company’s most significant investments in the crypto market. The firm’s forthcoming regulatory filings will provide additional information regarding the transaction.
Janover Invests 10.5M in Solana
Earlier this month, the fintech firm known for innovating in commercial real estate and digital finance approved its new treasury policy, authorizing the long-term accumulation of crypto assets. Solana became its first strategic holding following the recently completed $42 million financing round.
As part of the initiative, Janover aims to operate one or more Solana validators, which will allow it to stake its treasury assets, contribute to network security, and earn additional staking rewards that can be reinvested over time. Hence, the newly acquired SOL will be staked immediately, enabling the firm to generate yield while directly supporting the Solana network.
With this latest purchase, Janover’s total Solana holdings now stand at 163,651 SOL, valued at around $21.2 million, including staking rewards. As of April 15, 2025, this equates to 0.11 SOL per share, valued at $14.47 per share, a 120% increase in SOL-per-share growth compared to the company’s previous acquisition.
Meanwhile, the company’s CEO, Blake Janover, had expressed confidence in the long-term potential of blockchain technology. He stated that the company’s continued investment in Solana reveals its belief in the network’s viability and its importance in the growth of decentralized finance.
More Firms Follow Strategy’s Investment Approach
Since 2020, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) has pioneered the corporate investment approach by making Bitcoin purchases to diversify treasury assets. Today, Janover is just one of several companies that have adopted this approach of channeling significant funds into the crypto market to tap into its growth potential.
Metaplanet has also shifted its traditional business model toward a digital-first strategy, incorporating crypto investments. The company intends to leverage digital assets by hedging against the Japanese yen. Similarly, Semler Scientific has begun its strategy by gradually integrating crypto into its treasury management.
The Bitcoin Bond Company was recently launched. It aims to introduce innovative financial instruments that blend traditional finance with crypto assets. The company, led by Pierre Rochard, plans to invest $1 trillion in Bitcoin for its targeted institutional clients.
