PANews February 14 News, according to Arkham’s release of the 2026 Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko’s net worth and on-chain holdings analysis report, Yakovenko’s personal wealth is estimated to be between $500 million and $1.2 billion, primarily derived from his holdings of SOL tokens and his equity in Solana Labs. His wealth is closely tied to Solana’s market price.
At the time of Solana’s genesis, 500 million SOL were minted, with 12.5% allocated to the founding team. The market widely suspects that address 9QgXq is associated with Yakovenko; this wallet holds over 136,000 SOL (about $11 million). Between August and November 2024, this account unstaked and transferred over 3 million SOL, with more than 1.5 million re-staked to a new address. If these addresses are also owned by Yakovenko, his SOL holdings are worth approximately $122 million. Additionally, the owner address associated with his X username “Toly” and the domain toly.sol holds about $16,500 in liquid assets.
Yakovenko owns approximately 5-10% of Solana Labs. Solana Labs has received investments from institutions such as a16z, Polychain Capital, and Multicoin Capital, with a valuation estimated between $5 billion and $8 billion. His equity stake is valued at roughly $250 million to $800 million. He has also invested as an angel investor in over 40 Solana ecosystem projects, including Jito Labs, Drift Protocol, and Helius.
