In the rising crypto markets, crypto companies continue to take noteworthy steps. Accordingly, the crypto mining company Phoenix Group announced it is preparing for a public trade launch after seeing significant excess demand during the pre-market sale on November 21st.
Final Decision on Share Listing
Phoenix’s planned public offering process has been postponed due to the firm’s revision of the initial public offering (IPO) launch date on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX). According to an announcement made to the public by the crypto mining company on November 28th, the listing of shares on the stock exchange is planned for December 5th, 2023, instead of December 4th, 2023, due to the official holidays announced for the United Arab Emirates National Day.
In the country, the UAE National Day celebrated on December 2nd includes activities commemorating the founding of the nation. The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratization has planned December 2nd, 3rd, and 4th as official holidays for the private sector. The announcement stated:
“To honor this occasion and to ensure comprehensive participation in the public offering, Phoenix Group has rescheduled the listing date to December 5th, 2023.”
