Coincheck Group N.V. said on Jan. 8 in a statement that it signed a stock purchase agreement with Monex Group to acquire about 97% beneficial ownership of Canada-based digital asset manager 3iQ Corp., via a stock swap.
Coincheck Group and Monex agreed to value 3iQ at $111,840,476 and Coincheck Group stock at $4.00 per ordinary share. Monex’s stake would be exchanged for 27,149,684 newly issued Coincheck Group ordinary shares, and Coincheck Group said it plans to offer substantially the same terms to minority holders, issuing up to 810,435 additional shares to reach 100% ownership. Closing is targeted for the second calendar quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals and confirmatory due diligence.
CEO Gary A. Simanson positioned the deal as a strategic lever for institutional-grade product and infrastructure, while Monex CEO Yuko Seimi called the reorganization a “win-win” for shareholders. Coincheck Group said it will pursue revenue synergies across 3iQ, its prime brokerage Aplo, and staking services unit Next Finance, while broadening its revenue base to absorb public company costs more efficiently.
