Shares of crypto-linked companies diverged sharply on Tuesday, with Hong Kong’s QMMM Holdings rocketing more than 1,700% after unveiling a blockchain strategy, while Canada’s Sol Strategies tumbled 42% in its Nasdaq debut.
QMMM, a Hong Kong–based investment holding company, said Tuesday it will integrate artificial intelligence with blockchain to build a platform combining crypto analytics and a Web3 autonomous ecosystem. The firm also plans to establish a “diversified cryptocurrency treasury” focused on Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL).
QMMM’s stock performance shot through the roof after the announcement, rising over 2,100% before closing its Nasdaq trading up 1,737%.
Meanwhile, Sol Strategies, a Canadian Solana treasury and staking company, saw its stock move in the opposite direction. Newly listed on the Nasdaq, its shares plunged 42% on Tuesday. Trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange fared slightly better but still dropped by 16%.
“While share prices can fluctuate, our approach centers on what we call our DAT++ model,” Sol Strategies CEO Leah Wald told Cointelegraph. “We remain focused on building long-term value through disciplined execution of our business strategy.”
