SOL Strategies has announced a new staking partnership with DigitalX Limited, a publicly traded blockchain technology company based in Australia. Under the agreement, DigitalX will stake its Solana (SOL) holdings through BitGo’s institutional custody platform, using SOL Strategies as its validator partner. BitGo’s recent integration with SOL Strategies enables institutional clients to access a high-performance, secure validator network with minimal friction. The partnership represents a key development for both companies. For SOL Strategies, it builds on its recent entry into BitGo’s validator offering, placing the firm among a small group of validators available to institutional clients. For DigitalX, the move supports its goal of expanding exposure to Solana while maintaining strong security and operational standards.
