Fitell CEO Sam Lu commented on the investment with the following words:
“We are deepening our participation in Solana’s growth story and aiming to capture long-term growth opportunities for our stakeholders by diversifying our digital asset portfolio.”
Last month, the company announced a convertible bond agreement with a US-based institutional investor for up to $100 million. It was also announced that the initial $10 million allocated under this agreement would be used to acquire SOL.
Fitell’s move is quite ambitious for a Nasdaq-listed company with a market capitalization of just $6.8 billion. Shares of the company fell 15% to $5.14 after the acquisition was announced.
