BitMining also adds SOL to reserves BitMining, one of the smaller public companies, also extended its treasury purchases. The company added 17,221 SOL to its holdings, for a treasury of 44,000 SOL, valued at about $9.95M. Following the purchase, BitMining BTCM shares traded at $2.91, still in the green, but below the peak of $6.25. In total, Solana treasuries are valued at around $1.47B , still holding only 1.2% of the SOL supply. On-chain financing means not all SOL purchases are announced immediately. SOL treasuries may have a higher share of staking, sending the funds to some of the top validators. Treasury companies will also have access to liquid staking tokens to be used in the SOL ecosystem. Because the SOL is used within the DeFi ecosystem, treasuries are also boosting the total value locked (TVL) on Solana. Solana’s TVL reached another peak at $12.52B, with JitoSOL and Jupiter expanding their reserves from staking and liquidity inflows. Stablecoins on Solana are now $12.32B in total, with $1.5B in USDC minted in the past month. If you're reading this, you’re already ahead. Stay there with our newsletter .
