The Treasury Optimization Challenge
Modern enterprise treasury operations face significant headwinds. Idle cash earns sub-1% yields while inflation erodes value, with banks typically offering just 0.1-0.5% returns. Settlement friction compounds the problem—cross-border payments take 3-5 days and lock up millions in nostro accounts. Meanwhile, operational complexity drains resources through manual reconciliation, wallet pre-funding for gas, and fragmented payment rails.
The Solution: Institutional-Grade Infrastructure
Solana and Fireblocks have partnered to deliver a complete treasury operating system that moves at internet speed while maintaining enterprise-grade controls.
Solana Delivers the Performance Layer
Solana provides the raw infrastructure performance that treasury operations demand:
-
High-throughput processing: 1,295 TPS with 400ms slot times
-
Stablecoin hub: $15.7B in stablecoins with 300%+ YoY growth, establishing Solana as the primary settlement layer for digital dollars
-
Predictable costs: Sub-cent transaction costs that remain stable even during 2x traffic spikes
-
Always-on infrastructure: 24/7 treasury operations without banking hours limitations
Fireblocks Delivers the Enterprise Control Layer
Fireblocks unlocks Solana’s potential for enterprise treasury through three integrated features:
Native Program Calls provide real-time transaction transparency and policy enforcement for all Solana smart contract operations. Treasury teams can whitelist programs, track operations, and avoid third-party risks.
Gasless Transactions centralize fee management so teams don’t need to pre-fund multiple wallets with SOL—streamlining payments and supporting compliance for regulated entities.
The Tokenization Engine enables businesses to issue Solana-based tokens with advanced compliance and privacy controls, managing supply and distribution for stablecoins or fund tokens.
Partner Value Proposition
Together, Solana and Fireblocks deliver a complete treasury operating system:
-
Stablecoin yield strategies: Generate 4-12% APY on treasury balances vs. 0.1-0.5% from traditional banking
-
Real-time liquidity management: Automated sweeping, rebalancing, and cross-border settlement in minutes vs. days
-
Programmable treasury operations: Fireblocks Automation combined with Solana’s native speed and cost advantages
-
Seamless payment rails: Merchant settlements, payroll, and vendor payments at less than $0.01 per transaction
Proven Under Pressure: The October 2024 Stress Test
On October 10, 2024, the crypto market experienced the largest liquidation event in history—a real-world stress test for blockchain infrastructure.
The Challenge
-
$19.5 billion liquidated across all markets
-
Approximately $1 trillion total market cap wiped
-
Competitors struggled: Binance halted trading, Ethereum L2s lagged, Arbitrum median fees hit $115+
Solana’s Response
The network demonstrated remarkable resilience:
-
100,000 TPS of inbound traffic processed by validators
-
6,000-10,000 sustained TPS throughout—6x normal peak traffic
-
Sub-penny median fees maintained (vs. Ethereum’s $100+)
-
400ms block times preserved without degradation
-
800+ validators processed without failures
-
Zero payment interruption for enterprise operations
What This Means for Treasury Operations
When $19.5 billion in liquidations hit and competitors failed, Solana processed enterprise payments without interruption at sub-cent costs. This proves:
-
Reliable payment rails: Network maintained operations during maximum stress when enterprise needs are highest
-
Predictable costs: Fees stayed below $0.01 even at 6x demand—critical for treasury planning and budgeting
-
Mission-critical reliability: The infrastructure enterprises need when it matters most
