VisionSys AI Inc. announced on October 1 that its subsidiary, Medintel Technology Inc., has entered into an exclusive agreement with Marinade Finance to create a Solana-based digital treasury program worth up to $2 billion.
The initiative, which marks one of the largest corporate treasury projects involving the Solana blockchain to date, will involve the acquisition and staking of Solana (SOL) tokens. VisionSys said the move is intended to bolster its balance sheet and provide long-term liquidity.
First Phase Targets $500 Million in SOL
Under the framework, VisionSys plans to acquire and stake $500 million in SOL within the next six months. The long-term goal is to establish a $2 billion digital currency reserve. Marinade Finance, a provider of Solana’s leading staking protocol, will oversee the staking operations.
The company said it will manage security, compliance, and performance optimisation while facilitating VisionSys’s entry into the broader Solana ecosystem. The partnership places VisionSys among a small but growing number of technology companies integrating digital asset reserves as part of their corporate financial strategy.
Marinade to Serve as Exclusive Staking Partner
As part of the agreement, Marinade Finance will act as VisionSys’s exclusive staking and ecosystem partner. Marinade currently supports more than 154,000 SOL holders and has undergone multiple independent security audits.
Scott Gralnick, head of institutional growth at Marinade Finance, said the arrangement represents an alignment between VisionSys’s expertise in AI and Marinade’s role in Solana’s staking infrastructure. VisionSys, which specialises in brain–machine interaction and artificial intelligence systems, said it intends to combine its proprietary AI models with Solana’s blockchain to explore new applications in decentralised finance.
Broader Push Into AI and Blockchain Integration
Heng Wang, VisionSys AI’s chief executive officer, said the partnership reflects the company’s broader strategy of using blockchain technology alongside its AI-driven systems. He described the effort as a step toward building intelligent DeFi tools and tokenomics models that could apply to future corporate treasury management.
The announcement underscores a continued trend of collaboration between blockchain infrastructure firms and technology companies seeking to diversify treasury strategies. Solana, known for its high-speed blockchain architecture, has seen increased institutional interest in recent months despite market volatility. The companies did not disclose the expected timeline for completing the full $2 billion program, but said the initial $500 million phase is expected by mid-2026.
