COINNEWSSolana opens office in Shanghai and launches events in China
Solana has opened an office in Shanghai, despite the ongoing ban on crypto business in China. The project occupies one of the world's tallest office spaces with panoramic city views.
A large-scale advertisement was placed on the Citigroup Tower for the project presentation, and an event was organized on a yacht featuring Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko.
Industry reaction and launch of Accelerate China
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao expressed surprise at such scale, noting that BNB Chain has not yet achieved similar presence in China.
Meanwhile, Solana is launching a series of Accelerate China events in four Chinese cities, focused on development, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technologies.
However, the first event in Shanghai was unexpectedly suspended. Police arrived at the scene; the official reason remains unknown.
