**Sol Strategies Stock Price Blasts 27% Higher After Launch of Solana Mobile Staking App**
Publicly traded Canadian Solana infrastructure investor and holding company Sol Strategies (CSE:HODL OTCMKTS:CYFRF) has announced the launch of its new Solana mobile staking application from OrangeFin Ventures.
Sol Strategies completed the acquisition of Solana validator OrangeFin Ventures at the end of December 2025.
OrangeFin Ventures is a trusted provider of non-custodial staking solutions, making a name for itself because of exceptional performance and security.
The innovative app, now available on the Solana dApp Store, is the first non-custodial staking solution that allows investors to stake Solana (SOL) directly from their phones, delivering a streamlined and intuitive experience.
The mobile app will enable its users to access staking rewards of between 8-10% APY, in a move that revolutionizes mobile staking for Solana.
On January 9, the firm announced a CAD $27.5 million private placement financing with ParaFi Capital, which will be used to increase Sol Strategies’ SOL tokens treasury holdings.
Sol Strategies stock was up 27% on the news yesterday (Thursday 16 January) at CAD $4.66. According to sources, Sol Strategies is highly profitable.
Sol Strategies CEO Leah Wald on the revolutionary SOL staking app: “simple, secure and high-yield”
“This app will allow Solana investors the ability to get the most out of their Solana investment with a simple, secure, and high-yield staking solution,” said Leah Wald, CEO of Sol Strategies.
“As our first major technology initiative, this launch represents a pivotal step in our journey investing in and fostering innovation, enabling us to build cutting-edge solutions within the blockchain infrastructure.”
Well connected on Wall Street, Wald is co-founder of Valkyrie Investments and its former CEO.
Key features include:
– **Non-Custodial Model:** Investors retain full control of their keys, enhancing security and ownership of their assets.
– **Higher Staking Returns:** Investors can expect returns ranging from 8% to 10%, significantly surpassing traditional custodial platforms.
– **Compliance and Security:** OrangeFin, an ISO 27001-compliant validator, upholds the highest standards of security and reliability.
“OrangeFin has been dedicated to building top-tier validator technology for the Solana community,” said Max Kaplan, Founder of OrangeFin and Head of Staking at Sol Strategies.
“With the resources and strategic expertise from Sol Strategies, we’ve elevated everything we’ve built to new heights. This marks another step forward in our mission to deliver even greater value and performance to the Solana ecosystem.”
**Available now on Solana dApp Store and coming to Google Play and Apple App Store**
The app is available now on the Solana dApp Store and is expected to launch on Google Play and the Apple App Store later this year.
This latest news follows Sol Strategies’ steady stream of validator acquisitions over the past six months, as the company seeks to become a major player in the Solana staking ecosystem.
The fast-growing firm now stakes 1,505,145 SOL (CAD $440,249,107) across all of its validator operations, of which it directly owns 142,801 SOL.
Sol Strategies has taken a leaf out of the MicroStrategy cryptocurrency acquirer playbook, but with the important difference that it provides its shareholders with exposure to income generated from its Solana staking activities. MicroStrategy was recently admitted to the Nasdaq 100.
Meanwhile, Sol Strategies has applied to be listed on the Nasdaq, which is expected to unlock a torrent of liquidity into the stock. The company’s primary listing is on the Canadian Securities Exchange where it trades under the HODL ticker. The stock is also available in the US via its OTC secondary listing (OTC Pink: CYFRF).
