Nomura Weighs Sale of Crypto Unit Laser Digital, Marex Evaluating Deal

Cointime reports: Nomura Holdings is considering selling its crypto subsidiary Laser Digital Holdings AG and is in talks with potential buyers including Marex Group, which is evaluating the deal, people familiar with the matter said. No final decision has been made and Nomura could sell to another party or keep the business, the people said; both companies declined to comment. Zurich-based Laser Digital posted a loss last year amid sharp crypto market swings, dragging Nomura’s European operations into the red.
