Nasdaq FinTech Group acquires institutional-grade encrypted communication platform, strategic positioning behind 340,000 subscribers

【BlockBeats】Institution-level cryptocurrency media platform makes another big move. Nasdaq-listed financial technology group Aether Holdings announced the completion of its acquisition of Coinstack. Founded at the end of 2020, this platform has accumulated over 340,000 subscribers and serves global professional investors including hedge funds, venture capital, and family offices.

Specifically, Coinstack mainly provides institutional investors with insights into Bitcoin, Ethereum, decentralized finance, and the entire blockchain market. After the acquisition, it will retain its independent brand operation but will gain access to Aether’s full suite of technological infrastructure, data analysis capabilities, and distribution channels. How does this combination look? It means expanding coverage while also enhancing professionalism and depth.

From Aether’s perspective, this acquisition fills a key gap in their media and data ecosystem. Group CEO Nicolas Lin stated that Coinstack, with its highly interactive user base, mature brand value, and quantitative metrics, has become a strategic complementary asset. In the future, Aether plans to gradually integrate Coinstack’s content and audience data into a larger platform ecosystem, creating more comprehensive digital asset and financial market data solutions for institutional investors.

In simple terms, this is an integration around institutional-grade crypto market information and data. As the share of digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum in institutional investment continues to grow, those who control high-quality data and insights will hold the dominant voice in this market. Through this acquisition, Coinstack can maintain content independence while leveraging the technology and distribution capabilities of a major platform, further deepening its service to institutional investors.
