VisionSys AI and Marinade Finance Launch $2B Solana Treasury

VisionSys AI Partners With Marinade Finance to Launch a $2B Solana Treasury

VisionSys AI Inc., through its subsidiary Medintel Technology Inc., has struck an exclusive partnership with Marinade Finance to build a Solana-based corporate treasury program. The plan starts with a $500 million acquisition and staking of SOL within six months and targets a $2 billion reserve over time.

What happened

Marinade Finance, a leading Solana staking protocol, will serve as the exclusive staking and ecosystem partner. Marinade will manage staking operations, security, and compliance, supporting VisionSys as it integrates more deeply into Solana's network. The protocol reports a community-driven governance model, over 154,000 SOL holders, and multiple independent security audits. Learn more about Marinade at marinade.finance.

Why this matters for corporate finance

For CFOs and treasurers, this is a blueprint for using digital assets to increase balance-sheet flexibility and broaden liquidity options. The initiative signals a move to treat blockchain-based assets as a core component of corporate finance-subject to guardrails, risk limits, and clear reporting.

• Balance sheet: Potential non-correlated exposure and staking-based income streams, with strict risk controls.
• Liquidity: Access to on-chain liquidity while preserving treasury policies and redemption frameworks.
• Operations: Institutional-grade staking operations and auditability through a well-vetted protocol.

How the program is structured

The first phase targets $500 million in SOL acquired and staked within six months. Marinade will operate staking and compliance workflows, with plans to scale the reserve toward $2 billion as the framework proves out.

• Acquisition: Phased entries to reduce market impact and align with internal risk limits.
• Staking: Delegation across the Solana validator set through Marinade, with security and monitoring in scope.
• Governance: Community-driven oversight at the protocol level, backed by third-party audits.

AI meets blockchain

VisionSys CEO Heng Wang called the collaboration a "once-in-a-generation opportunity" to embed digital assets into the company's financial structure. VisionSys plans to pair proprietary AI algorithms with Solana's high-speed infrastructure to build new DeFi models and AI-powered tokenomics systems.

From Marinade's side, Scott Gralnick, Head of Institutional Growth, said, "Forming a treasury vehicle with the leading Solana delegation provider is a perfect fit," pointing to VisionSys's position at the intersection of AI and blockchain.

Risks and controls to consider

Any finance team evaluating a similar move should apply the same discipline used for cash, FX, and commodities-codified policy, segregation of duties, and independent oversight.

• Market risk: SOL price volatility and drawdowns; set allocation caps and hedging rules.
• Protocol risk: Smart contract, validator, and operational risk; require independent audits and live monitoring.
• Liquidity risk: Define redemption windows and counterparties; test emergency unwind procedures.
• Custody: Choose qualified custodians vs. self-custody; enforce multi-sig, key management, and access controls.
• Accounting and tax: Align with the latest guidance on digital asset classification, impairment, and revenue recognition for staking rewards.
• Compliance: KYC/AML, sanctions screening, and board-approved policy with periodic attestation.

What to watch next

• Execution of the initial $500 million within the six-month window.
• Disclosures on custody model, audit partners, and on-chain wallets for transparency.
• Reporting standards for staking rewards, valuation methods, and impairment testing.
• Roadmap for integrating AI-driven models into treasury management workflows.

Quick checklist for CFOs exploring a crypto treasury
