TL;DR
- DeFi Development launches the “DFDV Treasury Accelerator” to build international treasury operations using Solana’s blockchain.
- The company will hold equity in each regional partner and deliver validator and staking infrastructure to strengthen the network.
- Solana’s real-world asset (RWA) value has surged 218% in 2025, while its token trades near crucial resistance levels, challenging Ethereum’s dominance.
DeFi Development has officially introduced its global treasury platform built on Solana, targeting crypto firms eager for more dynamic treasury management than simply hoarding bitcoin. Named the “DFDV Treasury Accelerator”, this new structure allows regional partners to run their own Solana treasuries with direct support from DeFi Development, which keeps a stake in each franchise. The concept merges staking infrastructure with capital strategies and a global network of operators, setting it apart from conventional treasury models.
Cosmo Jiang, general partner at Pantera Capital, emphasized that the DFDV approach pushes beyond the MicroStrategy mold. Rather than recycling old methods, the firm is evolving treasury operations for the crypto era. Pantera, known for backing Bitmine Immersion Technologies, joins Kraken, Arrington, RK Capital, and Borderless Capital as potential partners ready to bring in capital, validator services, and custody solutions.
Major Players Eye Global Rollout
These partnerships go beyond funding alone. They include the technical backbone needed to keep large-scale treasuries operational and secure through robust staking and validator networks. The timing fits the market’s current trend, as companies increasingly create crypto treasuries or explore alternative investments to diversify balance sheets. Firms like Bitmine and SharpLink Gaming have already pivoted toward ether-focused treasury models, proving there is demand for new treasury playbooks.
DeFi Development plans to expand globally without issuing new shares. CEO Joseph Onorati said the company is exporting its Solana treasury framework to partners worldwide, aligning everyone through shared economics, staking rewards, and validator infrastructure. Currently, the firm controls 857,749 SOL spread across 18.8 million shares and has set a goal of reaching 1 SOL per share by 2028.
Solana Strength Gains on Ethereum
Price trends add momentum to this strategy. Solana is trading near $175.56, testing the neckline of a long-formed “cup and handle” pattern that emerged from a $120 base earlier this year. With nearly 10% growth this month and a 218% surge in RWA value, Solana is accelerating while Ethereum tries to keep its larger lead. According to RWAxyz, Solana’s tokenized real-world assets jumped from $173.8 million in January to $553.8 million. By contrast, Ethereum’s RWAs have climbed 81% to $7.7 billion in the same timeframe.
