VisionSys AI Unveils $2 Billion Solana Treasury Strategy With Marinade
VisionSys AI Launches $2 Billion Solana Treasury Strategy in Partnership With Marinade
Nasdaq-listed VisionSys AI, a Beijing-based brain-machine interface and artificial intelligence firm, has unveiled an ambitious $2 billion Solana treasury strategy through its subsidiary Medintel Technology. The initiative, announced Wednesday, underscores growing corporate adoption of Solana as a blockchain platform for institutional treasury management.
Strategic Partnership With Marinade
As part of the strategy, VisionSys has partnered with Marinade, a leading Solana staking operator that manages over $2.2 billion in total value locked (TVL). Marinade will serve as the exclusive staking and ecosystem partner, responsible for operations, compliance, security, and performance optimization.

The first phase of the plan aims to acquire and stake $500 million in Solana within six months, though VisionSys has not disclosed how it intends to fund the purchases.
New Leadership for Blockchain Initiatives
Earlier this week, VisionSys appointed Hakob Sirounian, an early backer of Solana, as its new chief strategy officer. Sirounian will oversee the company’s blockchain and decentralized technology initiatives, signaling VisionSys’s deeper push into Web3 and decentralized finance (DeFi).
Market Reaction and Corporate Positioning
Despite the bold announcement, VisionSys stock fell 20% in premarket trading on Wednesday, though shares remain up over 300% since April. With a current market capitalization of $34.2 million, VisionSys remains a nano-cap firm. However, the company’s long-term goal of building a $2 billion Solana treasury mirrors the bold treasury strategy pioneered by MicroStrategy under Michael Saylor, which turned the company into the world’s largest corporate Bitcoin holder.

CEO Heng Wang framed the move as a groundbreaking step, describing the initiative as positioning VisionSys as a pioneer in AI-driven blockchain treasury management. By combining proprietary AI algorithms with Solana’s high-speed blockchain, the company aims to explore new models of intelligent DeFi solutions and tokenomics.
Solana’s Expanding Role in Corporate Treasuries
While corporate crypto treasuries were once dominated by Bitcoin, companies are increasingly diversifying into Ethereum and Solana to access yield opportunities in DeFi. Firms such as Forward Industries, DeFi Development, and Upexi collectively hold more than $3 billion in Solana.
Institutional backing for Solana has accelerated. Last month, Helius Medical Technologies raised over $500 million from Pantera and Summer Capital to launch a Solana treasury vehicle. Meanwhile, Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital pledged $1.65 billion to Forward Industries, making it one of the largest Solana treasury firms.
Market Impact and Industry Reaction
Following the news, Solana (SOL) rose 6% to $219 on Wednesday, cementing its position as one of the strongest performers in the current crypto market rally.

Scott Gralnick, Head of Institutional Growth at Marinade Finance, welcomed the partnership, calling it a “perfect fit” that combines VisionSys’s leadership in AI with Marinade’s extensive track record in Solana delegation services. Gralnick emphasized that Marinade’s institutional expertise will help maximize staking yields while upholding stringent security standards.
Outlook
VisionSys’s bold foray into Solana treasury management highlights the growing intersection between AI and blockchain. If successful, the strategy could establish the company as a trailblazer in corporate DeFi adoption, while reinforcing Solana’s role as a leading blockchain for institutional capital.
