After merging with Thunder Bridge Capital Partners IV, Coincheck received the necessary approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This Nasdaq listing is seen as a significant step in the company’s global expansion strategy. Additionally, being a subsidiary of Monex Group, the exchange will remain under Japanese control, boosting trust in local markets.
Monex Group Chairman and Coincheck’s Executive Chairman Oki Matsumoto described the process as the “fusion of Japan’s robust business foundation with U.S. capital markets.” Meanwhile, Thunder Bridge IV CEO Gary Simanson stated that Coincheck is advancing towards becoming a leader in the global crypto and Web3 sectors.
