Jito Foundation Acquires and Revives SolanaFloor News Platform

SolanaFloor is a news, research and onchain data platform focused on the Solana ecosystem. DeFi portfolio service provider Step Finance acquired it in July 2022. The platform had long tracked network activity as well as market and technology developments, so its shutdown affected more than its media operations: it also deprived the Solana community of an important independent source of information.

Step Finance ceased all operations on February 23, 2026, after an attack on its treasury wallet resulted in the transfer of about 261,854 SOL, worth roughly $27 million. SolanaFloor shut down as a result. On March 10, Jito Foundation announced that it had completed an acquisition of the platform and immediately resumed publication. Financial terms were not disclosed. The existing editorial team will remain and retain independence over story selection, reporting and data presentation.
