Solana-Linked $1 Billion DeFi Dream Crushed By SEC Intervention
DeFi Development Corp. hit a major roadblock this week when the US Securities and Exchange Commission blocked its $1 billion registration filing. The move came after regulators found that the company’s Form S-3 lacked a key internal controls report tied to its 10-K. As a result, DeFi Development—formerly known as Janover—pulled the filing and said it will fix the paperwork before trying again. Related Reading: Bitcoin To $1 Million? Michael Saylor Laughs Off Crypto Winter Fears Missing Controls Report According to the SEC, the registration was ineligible because it did not include the required internal controls over financial reporting. That report is a must for any firm raising capital through public offerings. Without it, the commission won’t even consider your request. DeFi Development filed in late April 2025 but overlooked this step, a basic requirement in US securities law. DeFi Development (formerly Janover) has withdrawn its $1 billion Form S-3 registration after the SEC deemed it ineligible due to missing a required internal controls report in its Form 10-K.

Withdrawal And Next Steps DeFi Development confirmed that no securities were issued during this process. It said it plans to refile once the controls report is in place. A quick resubmission—perhaps within 30 or 45 days—would signal they were almost ready. Investors will watch whether the company brings in an experienced underwriter or auditor to prevent another slip.

Now that the filing is on hold, those bets may stall. Markets often react when big purchases are delayed.

What Comes Next DeFi Development’s experience highlights that crypto firms must meet the same rules as any other public issuer. Skipping standard checks can derail even the boldest plans. The company’s next move will show how well it can balance its blockchain ambitions with straightforward regulatory steps. For now, the token-buy plan waits in limbo, and everyone from investors to developers will be watching the next filing. Featured image from Reuters, chart from TradingView
