We’re not simply holding SOL, we’re serving to energy the community,” stated Bo Yu, the Chairman and Chief Working Officer of the Firm. “It demonstrates our perception in Solana’s potential and our dedication to constructing significant infrastructure that helps its development, safety, and decentralization.”
As BIT Mining deepens its dedication to Solana, the Firm is actively exploring further alternatives throughout the ecosystem. By combining a rising SOL treasury with hands-on validator operations, BIT Mining is well-positioned to seize each the monetary and strategic upside of Solana’s quickly increasing on-chain economic system.
