Asset manager CoinShares PLC listed under the ticker CSHR on the Nasdaq exchange today. Known for its focus on digital assets, especially cryptocurrency, the firm has more than $6 billion in assets under management. Currently headquartered in New Jersey, it primarily operated in Europe before launching U.S. products several years ago.
The listing comes about via a special purpose acquisition deal between CoinShares International Limited and Vine Hill Capital Investment Corp. that formed CoinShares PLC. The new entity is now the holding company for CoinShares International Limited, according to the firm’s press release.
“Today CoinShares begins a new chapter. After more than a decade of building institutional-grade digital asset infrastructure in Europe, we are bringing that expertise to the world’s largest capital market,” said Coinshares CEO, Co-Founder and President Jean-Marie Mognetti.
The SPAC deal supports CoinShares’ efforts to broaden its product and revenue mix. With the move, the firm takes its place in the world’s largest capital market. “It reflects the strategic evolution of CoinShares from a pure-play ETP provider into a diversified asset manager specializing in digital assets,” Mognetti added.
According to CoinShares, listing in the U.S. will provide the company with better access to liquidity pools. Moreover, it will allow for better analyst coverage and a platform to help drive its expansion into U.S. markets. The U.S. listing also places the firm under the jurisdiction of key regulatory agencies at the forefront of global policy as it pertains to digital assets and institutions. That puts CoinShares on a more level playing field alongside U.S.-domiciled industry giants like BlackRock and Fidelity.
“The combination of CoinShares’ decade-long track record in digital assets with a U.S. listing creates a compelling investment proposition for investors at a time of accelerating institutional adoption,” Vine Hill Capital CEO Nicholas Petruska said.
