DeFi Development Corp. Introduces New Treasury Strategy Compensation Plan Tied to SOL Per Share (SPS)

Core Viewpoint - DeFi Development Corp. has introduced a new compensation framework that ties executive bonuses to the growth of Solana ("SOL") per Share ("SPS"), making it the first public company to link compensation directly to per-share crypto asset accumulation [1][2][4]. Compensation Framework - The new compensation structure aligns management incentives with long-term shareholder value, with bonus payouts based on achieving specific SPS targets by April 30, 2026 [2][8]. - The framework consists of four tiers based on SOL/share targets: NGMI Tier, SOLid Tier, LFG Tier, and WAGMI Tier, with the SOLid Tier being the minimum performance threshold for any bonus payout [3][4]. Bonus Structure - If the company falls into the NGMI Tier, no bonuses will be paid, while achieving the SOLid Tier results in a 100% bonus payout [3][6]. - The bonus amounts increase with higher performance tiers, with executive officers eligible for up to 200% of their target bonus if they achieve 1.0 SOL/share (pre-split) by the measurement date [7]. Transparency and Accountability - The company believes this compensation alignment reinforces its commitment to transparency, accountability, and long-term compounding [8]. Company Overview - DeFi Development Corp. has adopted a treasury policy that allocates its principal holding to Solana (SOL), providing investors with economic exposure to the Solana ecosystem [9].
