First Digital Group to go public via merger with KOYN
First Digital Group, the issuer of stablecoin FDUSD, has agreed to merge with CSLM Digital Asset Acquisition Corp III (KOYN) in a deal that values First Digital at $250 million on a pre-money basis. The transaction is expected to take First Digital public by listing it on Nasdaq through this merger.
