In partnership with Sharps Technology (NASDAQ: STSS) J.D. Durkin sat down with James Zhang, Strategic Advisor at Sharps Technology. Sharps Technology is making waves in the medical device and pharmaceutical packaging sectors, and notably, it has embraced Solana as a treasury reserve asset, holding millions of Solana tokens.
Zhang recently returned from Asia, where he attended two major crypto conferences: Korea Blockchain Week and Token 2049. He shared insights on how Asia has lagged in the digital asset treasury space despite being a hub for digital assets and trading volume and discusses the current state of the digital asset market, including a slowdown in trading volumes and the impact of regulatory hurdles in the U.S., particularly regarding ETF approvals for Solana.
The pair also explore the concept of Digital Asset Treasury 2.0, which emphasizes revenue generation within the Solana ecosystem highlighting Solana’s commercial viability, its impressive revenue generation compared to Ethereum, and the growing interest from Asian investors.
Additionally, we touched on Sharps Technology’s recent partnerships with Coinbase and Crypto.com, which are crucial for providing institutional exposure to digital assets. Zhang also discusses the company’s $100 million share repurchase program, emphasizing its importance in generating shareholder value and demonstrating the management team’s financial acumen.
