Key Takeaways:
- SBI plans majority control of Coinhako, per Tech in Asia reporting.
- Not a completed deal; coverage calls it a majority-stake plan.
- No MAS approval announced; stake size, valuation, and closing date undisclosed.
SBI Holdings plans to acquire a controlling stake in Singapore-based trading platform Coinhako, as reported by Tech in Asia. Coverage characterizes this as a majority-stake plan rather than a completed transaction.
Details such as stake size beyond โmajority,โ valuation, and a closing date have not been disclosed in the reports referenced. No Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) approval has been announced in these materials.
Separate reporting concerns SBIโs majority acquisition of CoinPost, a Japan-based Web3 media and events company. As reported by odaily.news, SBI signed a share transfer agreement on August 22, 2025, with completion targeted by October 1, 2025.
โThrough the Proposed Transaction, the SBI Group intends to acquire a majority stake in the Coinhako Group,โ said FX News Group in its cryptocurrency markets report. The wording in multiple outlets may have contributed to overlap across headlines.
Coinhako is a Singapore digital-asset trading platform, whereas CoinPost operates media and conferences in Japan. The similar naming and the proximity of these announcements likely fueled confusion in secondary summaries.
At the time of this writing, SBI Holdings (8473.T) traded around JPY 3,489, based on data from Yahoo Finance. This pricing context is informational and does not signal deal timing or regulatory outcomes.
