Upexi Partners With Blueprint to Put Its 2.4M SOL Treasury to Work

Upexi is putting its Solana treasury to work. The NASDAQ-listed company, which holds approximately 2.4 million SOL (making it one of the largest corporate SOL holders globally), announced Monday a partnership with Blueprint, the institutional staking affiliate of Hivemind Capital Partners, to stake a portion of those holdings and begin generating yield at scale.

The partnership, announced via GlobeNewswire on June 30, moves Upexi beyond pure accumulation into an active yield-generation posture. Blueprint will provide validator infrastructure, performance monitoring, audit-ready reporting, and operational oversight for Upexi's staking operations.

What Blueprint Brings to Corporate Staking

Blueprint is Hivemind Capital's institutional-grade orchestration platform for digital asset management. Hivemind manages approximately $1 billion in client assets across six strategies spanning venture, private equity, liquid tokens, and public equity. Blueprint sits within its digital asset treasury operations, providing organizations with unified staking infrastructure, portfolio dashboards, and compliance-ready reporting.

The platform offers both public and white-label validators, with performance metrics accessible to all delegators. For treasury operators like Upexi, the value proposition is the institutional plumbing around staking, since any holder can delegate on Solana: auditable records, customizable monitoring, and the operational oversight that large public-company boards require when they put a nine-figure asset to work.

Upexi's Treasury Position

Upexi built its SOL position over the past year through capital markets issuance, purchases of discounted locked tokens, and staking yield. The company crossed 2 million SOL earlier this year and its official site now shows approximately 2.4 million SOL in treasury, with a net asset value of $182 million at current prices.

Staking was already generating revenue before this deal. Staking income totaled $6.1 million in the fiscal first quarter ended September 30, 2025 and $5.1 million the following quarter. The Blueprint partnership formalizes and expands that infrastructure, adding institutional-grade oversight as the treasury position has grown to a size where operational rigor matters.

Upexi's website targets a 7–9% staking yield on its holdings. At 2.4 million SOL and current network rates, that represents material annual revenue relative to its $58 million market capitalization.

The Pre-Existing Hivemind Relationship

This is not Upexi's first deal with the Hivemind ecosystem. In January 2026, Upexi reached a $36 million securities purchase agreement with Hivemind Capital Partners for a convertible note secured by locked Solana. That transaction added approximately 265,000 SOL to Upexi's treasury at an average price of $135.93, a 12% increase in holdings at the time.

Bringing in Hivemind's staking affiliate to run the infrastructure after Hivemind previously funded the treasury acquisition reflects a deepening institutional relationship.

Corporate SOL Treasuries Move Into Active Management

Upexi is part of a small but growing cohort of NASDAQ-listed companies that have adopted Solana as a primary treasury asset. The company and peer Forward Industries both entered major US equity indexes including the Russell reconstitution effective June 29, adding index-driven buying pressure to their equity.

The Blueprint partnership represents the next phase of that playbook: a large SOL position converted from a static balance sheet asset into a yield-generating one. Staking on Solana is non-custodial, so the delegator retains ownership of the underlying SOL, meaning Upexi earns network rewards without relinquishing control of the treasury.

For the Solana validator ecosystem, large institutional stakes delegated through managed platforms like Blueprint increase total stake weight on high-performance validators, which over time can strengthen network decentralization if that stake is spread across independent operators rather than concentrated on a single one.
