Samsung is bringing stablecoin payments to Solana.
From late October, US Samsung Wallet users can send cross-border USDC on @solana, built natively into 82 million Galaxy devices.
This is just the start.
$FWDI Chairman @KyleSamani is on stage at the Digital Asset Summit 2026 Asia, making the case for Solana versus Hyperliquid for institutions.
@solana is the institutional chain.
THE BLOCK: Forward Industries increased its Solana treasury by nearly 949,000 SOL during the last quarter, bringing total holdings to 8.5 million SOL, or roughly 1.4% of the circulating supply.
The company said the solana:So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 added during the quarter came at an average cost of $83.
Forward is joining @BlockchainAssn's Vaults Workstream to advance policy for onchain infrastructure.
We look forward to engaging with the SEC and indusrty peers to address regulatory questions and support financial innovation in the U.S.

I'm looking forward to joining @RepRitchie and Chairman @RepFrenchHill at @CoinDesk’s Policy & Regulation conference.
Two champions who have put in the work to move crypto policy forward. Plenty to discuss about what comes next – and how we keep building here in America.
Two forces moving in opposite directions: issuance falling on a fixed schedule, network fees rising with usage.

Everything is being tokenized on @solana.
There’s no sense in sugarcoating it: today’s vote was a major disappointment—and, I believe, a failure of American leadership. The full cost of today’s result may not be known for years to come, but this much is clear: it increases the risk that the standards that global financial markets adhere to in the future will be those of Brussels or Beijing, rather than Washington and New York.
I want to thank @POTUS for the opportunity to work on this important legislation and for the remarkable concessions he was willing to make to give this bill a chance; @DavidSacks for his wise leadership on not only crypto but all frontier tech policy; and all the Senators and their staffs who devoted countless hours to working on this bill, chief among them @SenLummis who deserved much better than this.
Lastly, I also want to thank my colleagues across the administration at Treasury, SEC, and the CFTC. Their partnership helped us find creative solutions to challenging issues throughout this process, and their patience made it possible for us to see it all the way through to a vote.
On that last point: @SECPaulSAtkins and @ChairmanSelig, you’re up!
This is a good bill, and it is a true shame that partisan politics got in the way. Importantly, the votes are now on the record and legislators will be held accountable by their constituents.
The industry, however, has been here before and like life, we will find a way. Fortunately, the applicable regulatory agencies have rolled up their sleeves and seem willing to fill in the legislative gaps in the wake of this vote.
I was in the room for the vote, and it was disappointing to watch live.
One way or another, we will get clarity for crypto. I look forward to working with Congress and the agencies to find the path forward.
Our work isn’t done.
Commissioner @HesterPeirce signalled the SEC will address vaults and lending protocols. Forward Industries didn't wait to react.

Moving Solana Forward.
We're seeing new highs in activity on Solana with each passing month from both retail and institutional participants. A clear framework to enable developers to innovate with regulatory clarity and for users to understand how the products they use are regulated is a critical step for this growth to accelerate. While this is just a first step, we are grateful for the opportunity for dialogue and industry input. I’ll be at the Solana Policy Institute event next week if you want to chat…https://t.co/H4MDlxANIw
Forward Industries General Counsel @GeorgiaQuinnEsq authored this Digital Asset Vault Framework for the SEC to push forward a clearer path for DeFi builders and users across the industry. https://t.co/tuVfWr3fGG
A closed network with a toll on top isn't novel enough to win on merit. The risk is that it gets written into a standard instead.
@GeorgiaQuinnEsq, General Counsel of Forward Industries, on why open networks matter.
Build on Solana.
I’m taking the stage September 14 at Solana Summit DC – where policy, finance, and digital assets converge! Hope to see you there! RSVP: https://t.co/3IXtmJAWJD
