Quick Take Pantera was among the investors who won the bids for solana tokens at the FTX estate’s auction, according to Bloomberg. FTX’s 41 million locked solana has seen strong demand from institutional investors.

Pantera Capital, which maintains $5.2 billion in assets under management, has won the bid for another trove of Solana ( SOL -1.93% ) tokens from the FTX bankruptcy estate, according to Bloomberg.

Bloomberg reported today, citing a source familiar with the matter, that Pantera was among the bidding winners and that about 2,000 Solana tokens were sold this week.

As of early March, Pantera was reportedly raising money to create a fund to purchase up to $250 million worth of locked Solana from the estate.

Earlier this month, FTX’s estate sold around $1.9 billion worth of SOL to industry firms such as Galaxy Digital and Pantera.

Solana trades at around $143, down 2.35% over the past 24 hours at the time of publication, according to The Block’s Price Page .
