Digital Commodities Acquires Solana and Adopts AI and Digital-Infrastructure Strategy

Company establishes SOL as its first growth-oriented digital-asset position alongside a Bitcoin-led reserve foundation

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 28, 2026) - Digital Commodities Inc. (CSE: DIGI) (OTCQB: DGCMF) (FSE: W040) ("Digital Commodities" or the "Company") today announced the formal adoption of a two-tier digital asset treasury strategy and the acquisition of approximately C$100,000 of Solana (SOL), representing approximately 5% of the Company's estimated NAV as of September 28, 2026. This is the Company's first allocation under the strategy announced today, funded through the monetization of a portion of the Company's physical gold holdings.

The Company's reserve foundation remains anchored by 11 Bitcoin (BTC), together with cash. The Company also holds strategic investments in public and private companies. Alongside that reserve, the Company is establishing a second, separately governed allocation to digital assets that management believes are positioned to benefit from the growth of artificial intelligence as an economic driver of blockchain activity. Solana is the first position in this new allocation.

The strategy follows an extended reset in digital-asset markets and comes as artificial intelligence evolves from primarily generating information toward software capable of initiating transactions and coordinating economic activity. Management believes AI agents may become an additional source of demand for digitally native payment and settlement infrastructure, while listed-market exposure remains concentrated in conventional single-asset strategies.

A two-tier treasury framework

Going forward, the Company's treasury will operate under two distinct mandates:

• Reserve foundation - Bitcoin, held directly, together with cash. To fund the Company's initial AI-infrastructure position, the Company monetized a portion of its physical gold holdings; management does not intend to fund further AI-infrastructure allocations through additional reductions to the Bitcoin position without separate Board approval and disclosure.

• AI-infrastructure allocation - a separate allocation to select digital assets that management believes are positioned to capture economic value as artificial intelligence systems increasingly transact autonomously, requiring machine-native payment and settlement infrastructure. This tier will be built in measured stages, subject to market conditions, available capital and relative opportunity.

An asset qualifies for the AI-infrastructure allocation only where management identifies a live, disclosed mechanism by which network activity is expected to translate into asset value - such as transaction fee capture or network settlement demand - rather than on narrative alone. Solana is the Company's initial position in this tier, reflecting its role in programmable finance, stablecoins, tokenization and high-throughput, low-cost transaction processing, which management believes is well suited to the frequent, small-value transactions that autonomous software agents may generate. The Company will continue evaluating other established and emerging digital assets against this same framework.

The sizing and composition of each tier will be reviewed periodically by the Board as the strategy matures and market conditions evolve.

"Bitcoin remains the foundation of our treasury," said Brayden Sutton, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Commodities. "We funded our initial Solana position by monetizing a portion of our physical gold holdings. What we're adding is a second, disciplined allocation to digital assets we believe may become important infrastructure as AI systems increasingly transact and coordinate economic activity. "

The Company intends to provide appropriate disclosure regarding material digital-asset holdings and significant portfolio changes as the strategy develops.
