Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - July 27, 2026) - SOL Strategies Inc. (CSE: HODL) (NASDAQ: STKE) ("SOL Strategies" or the "Company"), a digital asset infrastructure company focused on high-performance blockchain and privacy technologies, today reported preliminary, unaudited figures from the first month of operating Houdini Swap ("Houdini"), the non-custodial, privacy-focused cross-chain swap aggregator the Company acquired on June 1, 2026. SOL Strategies also announced the appointment of aktiencheck.de AG ("Aktiencheck") as an Investor Relations Partner focused on bringing awareness of the Company to the German market.

In its first full month under SOL Strategies, Houdini generated approximately $1.1 million CAD in revenue and approximately $740k CAD in EBITDA, which is an approximately 63% EBITDA margin, on approximately $92 million CAD in transaction volume across 34,427 orders. Houdini is the Company's first purely transactional business line, acquired to give SOL Strategies a source of revenue that runs on activity rather than the price of SOL.

In June, Houdini added a new wallet integration with Jumper, the flagship app built on LI.FI's routing infrastructure, and in July went live on pump.fun's Terminal, a multichain trading platform, embedding private deposits and withdrawals directly into Terminal's onboarding flow. Together with existing integrations including Jupiter and Solflare, the additions bring Houdini's total application integrations to 39, reaching tens of millions of potential customers. †

"Being able to capture value during market volatility is key to sustained revenue generation regardless of underlying asset movements," said Michael Hubbard, Chief Executive Officer of SOL Strategies. "That's why we bought Houdini. People value privacy, keeping their net worth out of transaction data and seamlessly accessing tokens across 120+ blockchain networks. With Houdini, users are able to direct what information they share with the world, while unlocking liquidity and access across blockchain ecosystems. The focus on B2B expansion through partnerships with Jumper and Terminal are deliberate and show strong velocity for the product with key industry players."

The Company also announced the appointment of Aktiencheck as its Investor Relations representative focused on building awareness of the Company in Germany, commencing on or about August 1, 2026. The Company will pay Aktiencheck 25,000 Euros for a three month engagement with an option to extend. Aktiencheck is independent of the Company. Its office is located at Bahnhofstrasse 6, 56470 Bad Marienberg, Germany, +49 2661 9890018, info@aktiencheck.de. Aktiencheck will provide newsletter placement services, email services, German social media campaigns and placement within the Aktiencheck advertising network, largely focused on German-language outreach in line with existing investor relations activity the Company has been conducting.
