Technology services firm VisionSys AI announced a strategic treasury initiative to acquire and stake up to $2 billion in Solana (SOL), partnering exclusively with Marinade Finance, a leading Solana staking protocol.

The initial phase involves purchasing and staking $500 million worth of SOL over the next six months, aiming to bolster Solana's staking infrastructure and ecosystem integration.

The announcement coincided with a rally in Solana's price, which surged to around $218.07 amid market enthusiasm, and with Helius Medical Technologies raising over $500 million to launch a Solana treasury.

The partnership aims to explore decentralized finance solutions and tokenomics, with VisionSys seeking to strengthen its liquidity and financial position through strategic SOL acquisition and staking.

Marinade Finance will handle security, compliance, and operations for the staked assets, leveraging its extensive experience supporting over 154,000 SOL holders.

Other institutions, including Forward Industries and Crypto.com, have also made significant Solana treasury acquisitions, collectively holding over $3 billion in SOL, indicating growing institutional confidence in the blockchain.

This move reflects a broader trend of corporate digital asset diversification, with other companies like ZOOZ Power also acquiring Bitcoin for treasury reserves, despite the inherent risks of volatility and regulatory uncertainty.

The company also plans to explore integrating AI technology into Solana for potential 'intelligent DeFi' applications, positioning itself at the forefront of blockchain and AI convergence.

VisionSys appointed Hakob Sirounian, an experienced DeFi and Solana expert, as Chief Strategy Officer to lead ecosystem partnerships and long-term strategic development.

This project exemplifies the evolving role of corporate treasuries as liquidity hubs powered by blockchain and AI, potentially setting new standards in efficiency and transparency across industries.

While aiming for its $2 billion target to become a market leader in blockchain treasury solutions, VisionSys acknowledges risks from market volatility and reserve concentration, emphasizing the importance of regulatory compliance.

VisionSys CEO Heng Wang emphasized that integrating Solana’s high-performance blockchain with AI will enable innovative DeFi solutions and position the company as a leader in blockchain treasury management.
