Solana raises $314 million from a16z, others
Cryptocurrency startup Solana announced earlier today that it had raised $314 million in a private token sale round. The Solana blockchain is one of the leading decentralised application networks in the world.Solana raised funds via a private token sale. The token sale round was led by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Polychain Capital. Solana revealed that the other participants are Alameda Research, CMS Holdings, Multicoin Capital, CoinShares, Jump Trading, Sino Global Capital, and more.
The startup has expected to raise anywhere from $300 million to $450 million from the token sale. With the funds obtained, the team would launch an incubation studio that would make it easier and faster to develop projects on the Solana blockchain. The team would also launch a venture investing division for the Solana ecosystem.
The Solana network is growing
The Solana network is one of the fastest-growing in the cryptocurrency space. The ecosystem already houses over 90 projects, including Raydium, Serum, and Pyth Network. Although it is becoming popular in the DeFi space, it is still small compared to Ethereum. Current, the total value locked (TVL) by Ethereum projects is nearly $60 billion, while Solana projects have a TVL of less than $1 billion.The fund could allow Solana to boost its DeFi ecosystem. Polychain Capital's managing partner Olaf Carlson-Wee stated that "In our view, Solana is a compliment to Ethereum," he said. "We're thrilled to see strong developer activity and a continually expanding community grow around the project."
The $314 million raised by Solana is its highest to date. The startup raised $20 million in a Series A funding round two years ago and another $1.8 million last year.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
