The Jito Foundation has acquired Solana ecosystem media and analytics platform SolanaFloor and plans to relaunch the site after it shut down earlier this year following a security breach at its parent company.

SolanaFloor went offline in February after Step Finance wound down operations when a treasury wallet breach drained roughly $40 million in Solana tokens.

Under the acquisition, the platform will resume publishing news, research and onchain analytics covering the Solana ecosystem while operating under the Jito Foundation, according to a company press release.

SolanaFloor editor Awais Afzal said the existing editorial team has been retained as part of the deal and that day-to-day newsroom operations will remain editorially independent from the Jito Foundation.

The Jito Foundation supports development around the Jito protocol, which focuses on liquid staking and block-building infrastructure while coordinating grants, partnerships and other initiatives across the Solana network.

Step Finance announced in February that it would shut down operations after a January treasury wallet breach, which also forced the closure of affiliated platforms including SolanaFloor and the lending and yield protocol Remora Markets.

Blockchain security firm CertiK later reported that more than 261,854 SOL tokens were unstaked and transferred during the attack, highlighting the ongoing security risks facing the cryptocurrency sector where hackers stole an estimated $3.4 billion in 2025.

At the time of reporting, Solana price was $85.71.
