VisionSys Stakes $500M in SOL with Marinade Finance, Pioneering AI-Driven DeFi
VisionSys, a Nasdaq-listed AI-driven company, has chosen Marinade Finance as its staking partner. This move aligns with a growing trend among corporate treasuries exploring blockchain reserves.
VisionSys aims to bolster its balance sheet and enhance liquidity by acquiring and staking $500 million worth of SOL within six months. Marinade Finance, Solana's leading staking protocol, will provide the infrastructure for VisionSys's treasury. The company seeks to create new treasury models and pioneer AI-driven DeFi solutions by combining its proprietary AI algorithms with Solana's high-speed blockchain.
This partnership comes as Yahoo Finance reports Solana's price continues to rise. Year-to-date, SOL is up over 16%, making it one of the best-performing major cryptocurrencies. In the last day alone, Solana's price increased by 5% to approximately $219, following a $2 billion Solana treasury plan announced by VisionSys and Marinade Finance. This plan reflects rising corporate interest in blockchain reserves, as Forward Industries recently announced a similar Solana treasury plan with a $1.6 billion raise.
VisionSys plans to build a $2 billion digital reserve on Solana, further expanding institutional exposure to Solana through derivatives. CME Group is preparing to launch Solana and XRP futures options, reflecting the growing demand and interest in Solana's ecosystem as reported by Yahoo Finance.
