Jito Foundation Acquires SolanaFloor, Plans to Relaunch Ecosystem Data Analytics Platform

Jito Foundation recently announced the acquisition of SolanaFloor, a platform that was once a key provider of data and news content within the Solana ecosystem. It had suspended operations earlier this year due to a security incident involving its parent company, Step Finance. This acquisition marks the resumption of content updates for SolanaFloor under new ownership, continuing to provide the community with on-chain analysis, project updates, and market trend reports.

SolanaFloor was originally affiliated with Step Finance, which disclosed on January 31 that its funds wallet had been hacked, resulting in the illegal extraction of over 261,000 SOL. As a result, Step Finance and its related projects, including the lending and yield protocol Remora Markets, ceased operations. As one of the affected platforms, SolanaFloor was temporarily taken offline, but its core editorial team was retained and will continue to operate as an independent unit, with daily content production not directly interfered with by the Jito Foundation.

Jito Foundation is an ecosystem organization focused on promoting the development of the Jito protocol, primarily dedicated to optimizing liquid staking and block building infrastructure, and supporting the continued growth of the Solana network through funding, collaboration, and other means. This acquisition is seen as an important step by the foundation to strengthen the ecosystem's content infrastructure, helping to improve the transparency and accessibility of on-chain information. Currently, the Jito Foundation has not disclosed the specific financial details of the transaction, nor has it announced a specific timetable or business model for the relaunch of SolanaFloor. More information about the team structure, content direction, and new services is expected to be gradually disclosed after the platform is officially launched.
