DeFi Development Company, known as the 'MSTR of Solana', has filed a $1 billion shelf offering with the SEC, allowing them to issue new securities over time. The firm is pivoting towards Solana by holding and staking SOL tokens, mirroring strategies used by other crypto-focused companies.

Superstate, a blockchain company led by Robert Leshner, is launching Opening Bell, a platform to facilitate the issuance and trading of SEC-registered public shares on blockchains, starting with the Solana network. Canadian firm SOL Strategies will be the first to list its shares, aiming to provide 24/7 trading and greater accessibility to both retail and institutional investors. This initiative marks a significant step towards integrating traditional equity markets with decentralized finance (DeFi).

The Loopscale DeFi protocol on Solana suffered a $5.8 million exploit just two weeks after its launch. An audit revealed critical vulnerabilities, including issues with collateral management and token handling, leading to significant financial risks.

Uniswap, the largest Ethereum-based decentralized exchange, has integrated support for Solana, allowing users to trade tokens from both ecosystems on a single platform. This development aims to simplify the user experience by eliminating the need for complex bridges and multiple wallets, thereby addressing DeFi fragmentation between Ethereum and Solana. Users can now access the speed and low costs of the Solana network through the familiar Uniswap interface.
