Built by the team behind Dialect, Leap is a new mobile app on Solana for trading tokenized stocks, ETFs, metals, currencies and crypto with an elevated experience for retail.

BOULDER, Colo., Nov. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Leap, a mobile trading app focused on an informed, elevated trading experience announced its beta launch today. Leap brings tokenized stocks, ETFs, metals, currencies and crypto into one place, with market context, simple and clear execution and precise profit and loss tracking. It’s available now in early access on iOS.

The Solana blockchain is designed to be the network behind internet capital markets. Leap is a front end built on that network to make onchain markets accessible to anyone, with a precise, high-quality trading experience.

A different approach

Fast, short-term memecoin crypto trading has helped bring many people onchain. Leap is built for what comes next: people who want to make better-informed decisions and trade in the market for the long term.

“The network is ready for every kind of market. What matters now are the products that help people use it well and keep them coming back. Every app that brings new people onchain makes the whole ecosystem stronger, and Leap is built to do that for the long run.” – Anatoly Yakovenko, Co-Founder and CEO, Solana Labs

Building with the Solana ecosystem

Leap works with teams across Solana to create a best in class, fully onchain trading experience. That includes Jupiter for trade routing, Helius for infrastructure and Birdeye for market data, with more partners to come. As Leap grows, it plans to give back to the network: by using future fees to buy and burn SOL and to reward users who refer friends.

The team behind Leap

The Dialect team was acquired earlier this year to build Leap, a new business under the Solana Labs umbrella. Dialect’s best-known work is Solana Actions and Blinks, a protocol that turns blockchain actions into shareable links, and X’s popular cashtags feature, both technologies that make crypto easier to use and more accessible.

“With Leap, we’re bringing that work to the people who trade. The Solana blockchain now confirms a trade in about 150 milliseconds thanks to Alpenglow, so the network is now faster than ever. Our job is to get the rest right, from the infrastructure to the app itself, so traders can make better decisions and see how they’re really doing. That’s what high performance means to us.” – Chris Osborn, General Manager, Leap

What Leap does

Stories moving the market. The goal is to help traders skip the noise and focus on what’s moving the world and the markets. Leap’s research team curates the stories that matter and marks each one on the price chart at the moment it broke.Markets. Tokenized stocks, ETFs, commodities, currencies, crypto and millions of tokens on Solana, all tradable 24 hours a day, subject to restrictions.Spot trading. Users enter an amount in dollars and confirm with one tap.

Institutions can now earn continuous Treasury yields on idle operating balances with atomic, around-the-clock redemptions.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Multiliquid, the instant settlement layer for tokenized assets, today launched Multiliquid Treasury: an institutional cash management solution enabling corporate treasuries, fintechs, and asset managers to earn short-duration Treasury yields on idle capital, with instant redemption available 24/7.

Traditional corporate cash management forces a hard compromise between yield and velocity. Operating floats held for payroll, vendor obligations, and margin requirements routinely sit idle in non-interest-bearing operational accounts because money market funds can only be redeemed on business days, before strict daily cut-offs, and close completely over weekends and bank holidays.

Multiliquid Treasury eliminates this cash drag by using tokenized assets. Depositors access a formulaic interest rate tied directly to the 3-month U.S. Treasury Bill rate, while retaining the ability to sweep back into cash or stablecoins atomically in a single transaction, at 2:00 AM on a Sunday just as easily as midday Tuesday.

Solving the Weekend Float Problem

For an enterprise holding $25 million in liquid reserves, leaving cash idle costs hundreds of thousands of dollars annually in forgone interest. At an indicative annualized rate of up to 3.5%, that capital could generate up to approximately $875,000 a year in continuous yield without impairing same-day liquidity needs.

“For decades, corporate cash has had to choose between earning a return and being available, because the systems that move money close every evening and every weekend. On-chain settlement removes that constraint. Multiliquid Treasury is what cash management looks like in the new financial system: every idle dollar earns T-Bill yield, and every dollar is back in cash the moment you need it.” — Will Beeson, Founder and CEO, Multiliquid

How it works

Diversified Money Market Fund Backing: Depositors lend to an SPV whose reserves are programmatically allocated across regulated, blue-chip tokenized government funds—including the WisdomTree Government Money Market Digital Fund (WTGXX) and the Janus Henderson Anemoy Treasury Fund (JTRSY), mitigating single-issuer concentration risk.Instant Exits via Dedicated Buffer. A programmatic 5–10% liquidity buffer, reinforced by institutional repo lines, supports atomic instant redemptions under normal market conditions, with no notice periods or redemption windows.Unified Onboarding: Replaces fragmented fund-by-fund documentation with a single KYB/KYC verification covering the entire underlying portfolio. U.S. and international accredited institutions can typically onboard within 24 hours.API-first. Accessible via institutional APIs and smart contracts for automated treasury sweeps, alongside a no-code dashboard for manual execution.Verifiable. Reserves and fund allocations are verifiable on-chain in real time, with core settlement contracts audited by Cantina and Zellic.

Availability

Multiliquid Treasury is live today across Ethereum Mainnet and Solana for eligible accredited and institutional investors. Onboarding at https://www.multiliquid.xyz/tsy-onboarding
