iSpecimen Approached by Crypto Currency Companies
for $200 Million Treasury Discussions
Woburn, MA - September 4, 2025 - iSpecimen
Inc. (NASDAQ: ISPC), (the "Company"), a technology-enabled company modernizing the way human biospecimens are sourced
for scientific research, today announced an update on its major strategic initiative aimed at integrating digital assets into its business
model. The Company had previously announced that it is pursuing a strategic initiative aimed at integrating digital assets into its business
model, by seeking to build an up to $200 million corporate treasury reserve based on the Solana blockchain ecosystem.
Since announcing its intentions in August, iSpecimen
has been approached by several Crypto currency-related companies that have presented opportunities in tokenized real-world assets as well
as among highly ranked cryptocurrencies. In a parallel path, the Company has continued meetings to build a Solana-based treasury program.
"We are refining our approach to build a
digital asset treasury. While the acquisition of Locked Solana appeals, we recognize there are many opportunities that we continue to
explore," commented Mr. Robert Lim CEO of iSpecimen.
As for Solana, iSpecimen plans to establish a
SOL-based treasury program to diversify the Company's balance sheet and to support long-term growth initiatives. ISPC intends to source
treasury management expertise to assist with policy design, counterparty diligence, execution, custody coordination, risk management,
and reporting. The Company expects to fund the treasury program primarily from capital that may be raised from time to time.
To dive deeper, the Company's planned treasury
program contemplates purchasing SOL (the native token of the Solana network) including, where appropriate, Locked SOL, through over-the-counter
transactions with reputable cryptocurrency institutions. Any such purchases will be made only where legally transferable and following
legal, regulatory, and counterparty due diligence. "Locked SOL" refers to SOL subject to contractual transfer or vesting restrictions;
pricing may reflect a discount to prevailing spot prices to compensate for illiquidity and lock-up risk. The Company may also purchase
unlocked SOL on regulated or reputable venues for liquidity management.
Mr. Lim continued, "We plan to deliver shareholder
value primarily through a buy and HODL strategy as well as by purchasing locked SOL at a discount. We plan for the Solana to be staked
including liquid staking tokenization to increase yields for shareholders in the long-term. Nevertheless, we also plan to partially diversify
our Solana holding and allow a small percentage for spot trading." A HODL strategy is a long-term investment approach in Cryptocurrency
to hold assets even in times of market volatility, rather than trying to time the market by frequently buying and selling.

patients and specimens needed for medical discovery. Proprietary, cloud-based technology enables scientists to intuitively search for
specimens and patients across a federated partner network of hospitals, labs, biobanks, blood centers and other healthcare organizations.
