BOCA RATON, FL, Oct. 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DeFi Development Corp. (Nasdaq: DFDV)<\/b> (the \u201cCompany\u201d), the first US public company with a treasury strategy built to accumulate and compound Solana (\u201cSOL\u201d), today announced that its Variable Rate Series C Perpetual Preferred Stock (Nasdaq: CHAD) is now available for trading on Robinhood, one of the world\u2019s leading retail brokerage platforms.<\/p>\n

The addition marks a significant milestone in CHAD\u2019s continued expansion, making the security accessible to a broader audience of self-directed investors through one of the most widely used brokerage platforms in the United States.<\/p>\n

Since its Nasdaq debut in September, CHAD has become a central component of DFDV\u2019s capital markets strategy, introducing a new digital credit instrument designed to combine an attractive variable dividend rate with business-day payments and the accessibility of publicly traded preferred equity.<\/p>\n

With CHAD now available on Robinhood, DFDV continues to expand its distribution across major brokerage platforms, supporting its broader objective of establishing CHAD as a widely accessible digital credit instrument.<\/p>\n

\n Expanding Access as CHAD\u2019s Dividend Rate Rises to 14%<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

The Robinhood addition follows DFDV\u2019s recent announcement that CHAD\u2019s annual dividend rate will increase from 13.00% to 14.00%, effective November 2, 2026. The increase represents an approximately 7.7% improvement in annualized dividend income per share, bringing CHAD\u2019s annualized dividend to $1.40 per share based on its $10.00 stated amount.<\/p>\n

Unlike many traditional income securities that distribute dividends monthly or quarterly, CHAD\u2019s cumulative dividends are payable each business day, when, as and if declared by DFDV\u2019s Board of Directors.<\/p>\n

The combination of a double-digit annual dividend rate, business-day payments, and expanding brokerage availability positions CHAD to reach a broader audience of income-oriented investors.<\/p>\n

\n Building the Next Generation of Digital Credit<\/b>\n <\/p>\n

CHAD represents more than a new income security. It is a central component of DFDV\u2019s long-term strategy to build a scalable capital markets engine around Solana.<\/p>\n

As the first SOL-backed digital credit instrument, CHAD introduces a differentiated approach to preferred equity financing. Unlike traditional common equity financing, CHAD enables DFDV to raise permanent capital without issuing additional common shares, with proceeds from future issuances intended to support continued SOL accumulation.<\/p>\n

SOL can generate recurring rewards through staking, validator operations, and other treasury activities, creating a productive asset base that supports the Company\u2019s broader capital structure.<\/p>\n

By expanding investor access, deepening secondary-market liquidity, and supporting CHAD\u2019s progression toward its $10.00 stated amount, DFDV aims to establish a repeatable source of capital that supports continued treasury growth and long-term SOL Per Share accretion. The addition of Robinhood represents another meaningful step toward achieving that objective.<\/p>\n
