$10.00 Issuance Price Floor

-
SOL Treasury Grows to 2.39M
SOL and SOL equivalents increased by 55,491 to 2,388,923 between August 27 and September 11, 2026, a 2% increase driven by continued purchases and organic treasury growth.

Analysis · DFDV · Crypto Assets
DeFi Development Corp. has materially expanded its CHAD preferred stock ATM program from the 30 million shares disclosed three days ago to a $300 million aggregate offering, with a stated intention to issue at or above the $10.00 par value. The company also reported its SOL treasury grew by 55,491 SOL to 2,388,923 SOL and equivalents, a 2% increase since August 27, 2026. The ATM provides a significant new funding engine for the company's SOL accumulation strategy, though it creates substantial potential dilution for existing CHAD holders if fully utilized. The $10.00 floor is notable because CHAD was priced at $8.00 per share in the Series C offering that closed on September 8, 2026 — the company is now signaling it will not issue below par, which is a stronger pricing stance than the recent deal.
