DeFi Development Corp. Releases August & September 2026 Recap Highlighting CHAD Launch, Renewed SOL Accumulation, and Treasury Growth Above 2.5 Million SOL

BOCA RATON, FL, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV) (the “Company”), the first U.S. public company with a treasury strategy built around accumulating and compounding Solana (SOL), today announced the release of its August & September 2026 Recap, highlighting renewed SOL accumulation, the launch of CHAD, continued execution of the Company’s SOL Boost strategy, and expanded engagement across the Solana ecosystem.

During the period, the Company resumed active SOL accumulation and surpassed 2.5 million SOL and SOL equivalents, adding more than 226,000 SOL and SOL equivalents since its August 12 shareholder update.

The Company also launched CHAD, its Nasdaq-listed Variable Rate Series C Perpetual Preferred Stock, establishing a second capital markets engine alongside common equity. DeFi Dev Corp. subsequently established a $300 million at-the-market offering program for CHAD, providing additional capacity to raise perpetual preferred capital that may be used to support future SOL accumulation without increasing DFDV’s common share count.

The recap also highlights the SOL Boost Framework in action during a strong quarter for SOL, as the Company continued to focus on increasing SOL exposure per common share through disciplined capital formation, staking yield, validator operations, and long-term growth in SOL Per Share.

Additional highlights include the launch of State of Solana, a real-time platform tracking Solana market, network, DeFi, staking, governance, and ecosystem data, as well as the Company’s support for SIMD-0550 and SIMD-0553, two governance proposals intended to strengthen Solana’s long-term tokenomics.
