Diginex Ltd. is on track to go public in September on Nasdaq after the Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency and blockchain-services firm first announced the move via a reverse merger more than a year ago.

The deal with 8i Enterprises Acquisition Corp., a special purpose investment holding company, had been delayed from June but has now secured listing approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and will be voted on by shareholders on Sept. 15, said Richard Byworth, Diginex’s CEO.
