Evernorth's merger with Armada Acquisition Corp. II won shareholder approval, putting its 473 million XRP treasury on course for a Nasdaq listing. About 20.5 million shares voted in favor and 1.4 million against. Evernorth expects the deal to close on October 7, with trading under the ticker XRPN beginning October 8. The deal and private placements raised more than $1 billion, including about $300 million in gross cash.

Key points

  1. Armada Acquisition Corp. II shareholders approved the merger with Evernorth, clearing the main corporate hurdle.
  2. Evernorth is set to list with roughly 473 million XRP on its balance sheet.
  3. The deal and private placements raised more than $1 billion, including about $300 million in gross cash.

Why it matters

The listing would give public-market investors exposure to XRP through a company holding about 473 million tokens. Evernorth says its strategy is to put those tokens to work across the XRP Ledger ecosystem.

What's unclear

Neither the vote filing nor Evernorth's release says how many shareholders voted, only the share counts for and against.
