Sol Strategies, a cryptocurrency investment firm based in Canada, has decided to shift its portfolio by selling its Bitcoin holdings and investing in Solana.
The firm announced that it sold 24.5026 BTC, yielding approximately $2.35 million CAD at an average price of $95,878.28 CAD.
With the proceeds from this sale, Sol Strategies acquired 12,389 SOL tokens, boosting its total Solana holdings to 130,125.2186 SOL, currently valued at around $32.2 million CAD ($23.51 million USD).
Leah Wald, the CEO of Sol Strategies, emphasized the firm’s strategic decision, stating that reallocating funds from Bitcoin to Solana aligns with their vision of capitalizing on Solana’s potential in the decentralized finance sector.
She noted that while Bitcoin remains foundational to the digital asset ecosystem, Solana’s growth and innovative features position it well for the future of blockchain infrastructure.
With this move, Sol Strategies aims to leverage Solana’s capabilities to navigate the evolving landscape of cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin tumbled sharply today, shedding more than 3.5% in a matter of hours and briefly flirting with the critical $100,000 level.
Bitcoin is treading water near $105,000, but pressure is building on both sides of the trade as macro forces tighten.
While Bitcoin continues to capture attention with its strong 2025 outlook, several altcoins may be facing near-term turbulence.
BlackRock is making another assertive move into digital assets, quietly expanding its crypto portfolio with sizable purchases of both Bitcoin and Ethereum.
