According to the Form 40-F filing, in case it is accepted by the agency, the company will have its shares listed on the Nasdaq under the STKE ticker symbol. The market capitalization of Nasdaq is over $30.12 trillion, including over 3,300 listed companies. Compared to Sol Strategies, the offering currently trades at the Canadian Securities Exchange under the symbol HODL, where relatively few firms are listed. The fact that Sol Strategies is listed on the Nasdaq would give it the ability to access a far more sizeable and diverse investor base.
