Second Annual Centri Capital Conference summary

14 Apr, 2026

Strategic vision and Solana focus

  • DFDV was founded to launch a digital asset treasury company focused on Solana, aiming to bridge traditional finance and DeFi.

  • Chose Solana over Bitcoin due to its lower market cap, higher usage, and perceived undervaluation.

  • Concentrated strategy on Solana to simplify investor education and maximize conviction in a single asset.

  • Delivered approximately 600% equity returns since inception in April of the previous year.

  • North Star metric is SOL per share growth, targeting one SOL per share by December 2028.

Differentiation and ecosystem participation

  • Outperforms SOL by compounding exposure through active treasury management and ecosystem participation.

  • Owns validator infrastructure, enabling staking and organic yield generation with low fixed costs.

  • Organic growth allows for 8%-11% annualized treasury expansion, even without new capital.

  • Diversifies on-chain deployments across multiple protocols to manage smart contract risk.

  • More than 15% of treasury is deployed on-chain, with risk spread across several protocols.

Risk management and capital strategy

  • Exercises common sense and expertise to avoid high-risk protocols and quickly adapt to market changes.

  • Uses unsecured, low-coupon, five-year convertible debt to weather bear markets.

  • Prefers intelligent leverage and is cautious about aggressive equity issuance at current valuations.

  • Preferred equity offering is a top priority for future financing.
