Harneys acted as Cayman Islands legal counsel to Finfront and Bitfufu, a Singapore-based crypto mining platform, on Bitfufu’s de-SPAC business combination with blank-check company Arisz Acquisition Corp. The transaction completed on 29 February 2024. Following completion, the listed company BitFuFu Inc. commenced trading its Class A ordinary shares and warrants on the Nasdaq Stock Market on 1 March 2024 under the ticker symbols “FUFU” and “FUFUW”.

BitFuFu is a fast-growing digital asset mining service and a world-leading cloud mining service provider. Following completion of the merger, Bitfufu received US$74 million in private investment in public equity which it will use to expand its crypto mining offerings.

The Harneys team was led by Partner Raymond Ng with support from Counsel Denise Chan. Harneys Fiduciary serves as the Registered Office for Bitfufu and was actively involved in the merger. Wilson Sonsini acted as onshore counsel to Finfront and Bitfufu. Raymond commented: “We are pleased to have advised our clients on this transaction and wish Bitfufu every success in its plans to expand its crypto mining offerings. We anticipate this to be the first of many such strategic endeavours as we continue to advise clients on de-SPAC mergers throughout the year.”
