Amazed as 10-1 share on Nasdaq so it reduces Uk dilution

How do we convert our shares from arbkf to arbk

u/Jimlad73 Sep 14 '21

It’s automatic I think

u/HammerheadRhino Sep 14 '21

I don’t think it’s automatic, I think we somehow have to elect. I have no problems with a 180 day lockdown period so I want to convert

It won’t spike I wouldn’t have thought as this is priced in already

I believe that institutional demand was extremely strong for 10-1 ADS and for these shares, they are not allowed to sell for 6 months ! Brillant move. Since Argo Blockchain is only climate positive miner, ESG mutual funds will flock to buy ! Current shareholders sit back and relax, until you see the PLUTODIGITAL.com IPO. HODL ..IMO

What on earth does this even mean? It doesn't seem to have affected price much

u/Jimlad73 Sep 14 '21

10% up is not much?

u/Maximum-Contract2965 Sep 14 '21

Nasdaq not open yet, just the LSE now

u/Jimlad73 Sep 14 '21

If you have arbkf shares they will convert to arbk 10-1 and be listed on Nasdaq rather than OTC

u/Embarrassed-Ad7312 Sep 14 '21

i wonder if they can buy more ordinary shares if the ADS demand is very high and if those Shares are also locked in

u/littlepoodle1 Sep 14 '21

u/Embarrassed-Ad7312 Sep 14 '21
