Forward Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: FORD) announced on October 8, 2025 that it has launched an institutional‑grade validator node on the Solana blockchain, powered by DoubleZero’s high‑performance global network. The validator is already operational and will allow ecosystem participants to delegate stake directly to Forward Industries at 0% commission, creating a new, low‑cost revenue source for the company.
All tokens currently held by Forward Industries are delegated to this validator, and the company has committed to run all future validators on DoubleZero. The partnership will pilot validator and network optimizations aimed at increasing revenue, bandwidth, and reducing latency, with the goal of ranking among the top ten Solana validators globally. This launch is part of Forward Industries’ broader Solana treasury strategy, which is supported by Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital.
By expanding its blockchain infrastructure, Forward Industries strengthens its position as a leading Solana treasury company and opens additional avenues for capital generation and market influence within the rapidly growing decentralized finance ecosystem. The move underscores the company’s strategic shift toward active participation in high‑performance blockchain operations, potentially enhancing shareholder value through diversified revenue streams.
