Core Viewpoint - Faraday Future (FF) announced a strategic investment of $41 million in Nasdaq-listed QLGN, marking a significant step in its "dual flywheel and dual bridge strategy" to integrate Web2 and Web3, as well as AI and Crypto, aiming to create the first stock in the U.S. that combines these elements [1][3][4]. Investment Details - FF will invest approximately $30 million to acquire about 55% of QLGN, while founder Jia Yueting will invest $4 million for around 7% ownership, resulting in FF and Jia collectively holding about 62% of QLGN post-transaction [5]. - The investment is expected to create the fastest spin-off listing in Nasdaq history, with the strategic investment initiated on August 16 and the announcement of the spin-off on September 13 [4][5]. Strategic Significance - The investment signifies three major implications: 1. Enhanced independent operation and mutual empowerment of FF's EAI and Crypto businesses, maximizing value for shareholders and blockchain community [3]. 2.
