Coincheck is making history as the first Japanese cryptocurrency exchange to be listed on Nasdaq

This news comes after the US SEC gave the green light for Coincheck’s listing.

Headquartered in Tokyo, Coincheck is a subsidiary of Monex Group , and it’s expected to debut on the Nasdaq Global Market as early as December 10th. This move marks a major milestone for both Coincheck and the cryptocurrency world.

SEC Approves Coincheck’s Historic Nasdaq Listing

On November 13th, the SEC approved Coincheck’s application to list on Nasdaq. This will happen through a merger with Thunder Bridge Capital Partners (TBCP). TBCP is a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC). This merger is a big deal because it means that Coincheck will be the first Japanese crypto exchange to be listed on a U.S. stock exchange. Once the merger is finalized, Coincheck will remain part of the Monex Group, but it will also become an official player on the Nasdaq.

The process to get here has been quite the ride. Coincheck filed a Form F-4 registration statement with the SEC on November 7th, and that statement was approved by November 12. With the SEC’s approval now in place, TBCP can move forward with a shareholder vote on December 5. If the vote passes, Coincheck will officially close the merger and list it on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol CNCK.
