Renowned investor Anthony Scaramucci has shared an ambitious outlook for the Solana blockchain, positioning it as a critical infrastructure for the future of global finance. Speaking at the Solana Accelerate event, Scaramucci announced that he is currently working on a new book titled Solana Rising, which is scheduled for release this September.
The upcoming book delves into real-world use cases of Solana, with a particular focus on how it could revolutionize the tokenization of financial assets. According to Scaramucci, Solana is rapidly evolving into the technological foundation for a new era of digital finance.
Solana’s Expanding Role in the Financial Sector
As the founder of SkyBridge Capital, Scaramucci revealed that his research includes in-depth interviews not only with Solana’s co-founders, Anatoly Yakovenko and Raj Gokal, but also with leading CTOs from major Wall Street institutions.
He noted that nearly $7 trillion is spent annually on transaction validation across the globe — a figure that blockchain technology could drastically reduce. Scaramucci emphasized that thanks to its speed, scalability, and low-cost architecture, Solana stands out as a prime candidate to lead this transformation.
“Just as Bitcoin serves as a settlement layer for money, Solana has the potential to be the core protocol for tokenized real-world assets like stocks and bonds,” he explained.
A New Era: On-Chain Public Offerings
Scaramucci also highlighted the potential of on-chain IPOs, which could significantly lower capital formation costs and open investment opportunities to populations traditionally excluded from legacy banking systems.
“You don’t need a bank account to participate in a blockchain-based IPO — all you need is a digital wallet,” he stated. He compared the traditional 7% underwriting fees with blockchain’s ability to offer equivalent services at a fraction of the cost.
Institutional Adoption on the Horizon
Despite ongoing regulatory uncertainty, Scaramucci argued that institutional adoption of blockchain is inevitable. While financial leaders like JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon have expressed skepticism, Scaramucci believes that major firms will soon embrace protocols like Solana for custody, lending, and yield strategies.
He also confirmed that SkyBridge is actively developing strategies aligned with this future. “We’re entering a phase where digital assets will generate yield, not unlike how traditional finance works,” he said. “Solana will be one of the key layers enabling that transition.”
Demystifying Blockchain Through Solana Rising
With Solana Rising, Scaramucci aims to break down complex blockchain concepts into accessible language and advocate for greater regulatory and institutional acceptance of on-chain financial technologies.
