Together with the launch, SOL Strategies, a publicly traded Canadian company dedicated to investing in and providing infrastructure for the Solana blockchain ecosystem, also announced its intention to use Superstate’s facilities to list its shares on the Solana blockchain in the coming months, the firm said.
Robert Leshner, CEO of Superstate, commented, “The technology behind USTB and USCC, our first two tokenized assets, is now ready to power the most important capital markets in the world—public equities. Through Opening Bell, stock will become fully transferrable, programmable, and integrated into DeFi.”

As a Solana-first company we believe real world assets, such as our stock, being accessible on the blockchain unlocks many valuable traits, including 24/7 trading, instant settlement and global access with deep liquidity. By pioneering this approach, we’re delivering on our commitment to drive innovation, increase global accessibility to our shares, and deepen our presence in the ecosystem we both invest in and help build.”
