Solana Treasury Fund, operated by Sharps Technology, and Pudgy Penguins have announced a strategic partnership

The Solana Treasury Management Company Sharps Technology (hereinafter referred to as "Sharps Technology" or the "Company") (NASDAQ code: STSS), today announced a strategic partnership with the globally renowned Web3 brand Pudgy Penguins to jointly drive exposure and connectivity in the Solana digital asset treasury space.

Pudgy Penguins has become one of the most iconic and innovative brands in the crypto space, referred to as the "Mickey Mouse of the Internet" and the "Asian $DOGE." The brand's content has accumulated over 220 billion views and has partnered with well-known enterprises such as NASCAR, Walmart, and Lotte, continuously integrating blockchain innovation with mainstream culture. With an increase in institutional awareness, Canary's recent filing for the PENGU ETF also highlights this trend.

This partnership signifies another milestone for the STSS team in its differentiated digital asset treasury strategy. The company recently acquired over 2 million SOL tokens worth over $4 billion through a PIPE (Private Investment in Public Equity) transaction led by Cantor Fitzgerald & Co.

"We are excited to collaborate with STSS, who has built one of the most institutionally recognized Solana treasuries in the market." said Pudgy Penguins CEO Luca Netz. "Focus on attention is the core thesis of Pudgy Penguins, and partnering with forward-thinking enterprises like STSS that understand cultural value will help accelerate Pudgy Penguins' institutional adoption."

Through this partnership, Pudgy Penguins' top-tier IP will be combined with STSS's institutional-grade Solana treasury, creating new interactive opportunities for retail and institutional users.

"Pudgy Penguins is one of the most well-known brands in Web3 and a cultural phenomenon attracting millions of users globally." stated STSS Strategic Advisor James Zhang. "Our collaboration will create new and exciting ways for a broader audience to engage in the digital asset space."
