Global digital asset trading network Apifiny Group announced its public debut plans on Thursday, January 27. Apifiny won't take the traditional initial public offering (IPO) route and merge with a blank-check company.

Apifiny is planning to merge with Abri SPAC I, a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), and the deal will likely close in the third quarter of this year.

According to the company website, the value of the combined entity will be approximately US$ 530 million and includes cash worth US$ 57 million in Abri's trust account.

Bottom line

Blockchain technology and cryptocurrency have become popular over the years and have given investors stellar returns. However, it is worth mentioning that the cryptocurrency market is highly volatile.

Those who are sceptical of the crypto market could focus on Apifiny stock to get exposure to the digital assets but not invest directly in the market.
