Both I & my position here hope that scenario is the case & yes it does make perfect sense to believe & hope. As we have learned in the fintech/FX industry however, shared booths at expos (like iFX Expo, Dubai Fintech Summit, etc.) do often signal Commercial collaboration @ the very least as perhaps one firm uses another’s platform, liquidity, or payments rails. Joint marketing companies under the same umbrella (or exploring partnerships) co-brand to show strength. (a good thing) Vendor–client relationship for instance, Xoala might handle payments for Alchemy clients, or Alchemy could provide trading connectivity for Xoala users.
Relationship maintenance?? even if the acquisition hasn’t closed, both parties may stay friendly for optics or to keep doors open for future deals. So yes agreed 100% it definitely shows continued engagement or interest, but not necessarily an active acquisition under the previously announced LOI. As I have not been able to find any available loopholes for the missing & required filings/updates. I will as you have learned keep looking,
for the good the bad & the ugly.
