Solana Company (NASDAQ:HSDT), Formerly Helius, Continues Amassing SOL, the Native Asset of Solana Blockchain

NEWTOWN, Pa., Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. (the "Company" or "HSDT"), today announced its continued acquisition of Solana (“SOL”) tokens as part of its digital asset treasury strategy. The Company now holds over 2.2 million SOL. The Company also holds in excess of $15 million of cash, which it intends to use to further the digital asset treasury strategy. The Company’s combined Solana holdings (at $232.50 per SOL as of October 6^th at 12:00AM ET) and cash holdings exceed $525mm of value, exceeding the amount of gross proceeds from the initial private placement offering that closed on September 18^th.

These SOL purchases underscore HSDT’s commitment to the Company’s Solana treasury strategy and long-term confidence in the Solana ecosystem.

“Following in the footsteps of Michael Saylor at MSTR and Tom Lee at BMNR, HSDT Solana Company is focused on maximizing shareholder value by efficiently accumulating Solana. As evidence of that focus on efficient accumulation, HSDT’s Solana and cash holdings now exceed the initial capital raise amount in less than three weeks,” said Cosmo Jiang, General Partner at Pantera Capital and Board Observer at HSDT.

“HSDT Solana Company’s investment narrative is resonating with institutional investors. We are encouraged by the strong interest coming out of Asia after the major digital assets conferences last week, and we look forward to continuing to be a leading advocate for the Solana ecosystem to a whole new set of investors,” said Joseph Chee, Executive Chairman of HSDT and Chairman of Summer Capital.

Solana has historically been the fastest growing blockchain, leading the industry in transaction revenue and processing more than 3,500 transactions per second. The network is also the most widely adopted, averaging about 3.7 million daily active wallets and surpassing 23 billion transactions year to date. SOL is financially productive by design, offering a ~7% native staking yield, whereas assets like BTC are non-yield-bearing. As an independent treasury company, HSDT’s mission is to support the growth and security of tokenized networks by serving as a long-term holder of $SOL, in addition to continuing the development of its neurotech and medical device operations.
