Some major players are betting big on Solana this week. Kalshi just rolled out tokenized event contracts on the network—think elections, sports outcomes, all tradeable on-chain. Meanwhile, Vanguard quietly flipped the switch, now letting clients access funds with SOL exposure. That's not a small deal for traditional finance.
On the institutional side, FWDind brought in Ryan Navi as Chief Investment Officer. Navi's coming off a stint at ParaFi, and his job? Steering their Solana treasury game plan. The ecosystem's pulling serious attention from both retail and institutional corners right now.
