Sharps Technology Plans $100M Stock Buyback Amid Solana Treasury Push
Sharps Technology announces $100M stock buyback while expanding Solana treasury strategy, blending shareholder value with blockchain-driven digital asset diversification.
Sharps Technology has announced plans to repurchase up to $100 million of its outstanding common stock. The move highlights its dual focus on shareholder value and expansion into the digital assets ecosystem with Solana.
The Nasdaq-listed medical device giant confirmed the buyback program on Thursday. According to its statement, the company will be buying shares on the open market and through negotiated transactions. The decision comes after it previously stated it would become the “largest Solana digital asset treasury.”
Blockchain Exposure Drives Shareholder Value
In August, Sharps Technology conducted a private investment in public equity transaction (PIPE) valued at more than $400 million. The deal attracted several large investors, including ParaFi Capital and Pantera Capital. It has always made it a point to showcase its plan to combine the conventional market strategies with blockchain-based treasury assets.

Earlier this week, the company also announced a deal with Crypto.com. The deal will allow Sharps Technology to utilize Crypto.com’s institutional-grade custody infrastructure and over-the-counter desk to run its DAA treasury. This step represents increasing institutional trust in existing crypto custodians.
The company’s stock buyback decision follows a similar move throughout the digital asset space. In September, Verb Technology (now known as TON Strategy Company) went ahead and approved a $250 million Stock Buyback Program. In addition, it used Toncoin as its primary treasury asset, indicating further integration with blockchain assets.
According to analysts, the reason for such tactics is volatile equity and crypto markets. Through buybacks, the companies, once again, endeavor to reduce shareholder value volatility while diversifying into blockchain treasury models. Moreover, these programs reflect changing investor expectations, with blockchain exposure becoming a growth driver.
Solana Emerges as Preferred Blockchain for Treasury Operations
Sharps Technology’s integration into Solana’s ecosystem is part of a larger treasury strategy. VisionSys AI’s subsidiary Medintel Technology, recently announced a $2 billion Solana treasury project. The first phase consists of $500 million worth of SOL being purchased and staked in the next six months. Medintel will be working alongside Marinade Finance, Solana’s leading staking protocol (with independent audits and compliance oversight).
The scale of these kinds of projects reflects the way in which Solana is becoming a popular blockchain for treasury operations. Marinade Finance, renowned for its community-driven governance, stands as a pioneering force in securing and optimizing staking operations.
Analysts believe Sharps Technology’s $100 million buyback is complementary to its blockchain plans. The firm’s strategy aims to balance the traditional capital return model with a strong foot in the digital finance space. By using share repurchases as a weapon together with asset diversification, the company attempts to safeguard investor interests while also being innovative.
On top of digital treasury schemes, regulators may also make consolidation of banks attractive by conducting regulated buybacks in a similar way to how this has been done in the UK. Licensed companies that have access to both equity markets and blockchain ecosystems would have an advantage over smaller unregulated platforms. As institutional adoption continues to grow, weaker players risk compliance issues and possible liquidation as a result.
This is an example of a new corporate philosophy in which the stock buyback program is now no longer an independent financial activity. Instead, they are part of an overall digital treasury system. With Solana at the heart of this initiative, the company proclaims its willingness to combine traditional tools of shareholder value with innovative blockchain finance.
