Why This Solana Treasury Can’t Get Liquidated
Crypto nuked this week, but Joseph Onorati, Chairman and CEO of DeFi Development Corp ($DFDV), says his Solana treasury wants "max leverage and max SOL" at these levels.
Jack Dunham, Finn Miller, and Thomas Bahamas sit down with Joseph to break down how the first US public SOL treasury plans to keep buying through the drawdown, why its CHAD preferred can't be margin called, and why he thinks Solana treasury M&A is harder than the market assumes. Then the team covers the week's top stories, from JTX Equities going live to KAST scrapping its airdrop and Kamino's new token vision.
