Overview
Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. is a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in Cayman Islands and registered with the SEC under CIK 0002052162. It completed its initial public offering in Apr 2025, raising $173M in gross proceeds and listing on Nasdaq. Class A shares trade under the ticker DAAQ, units under DAAQU, warrants under DAAQW on Nasdaq. The vehicle is sponsored by DAAQ through DAAQ Sponsor LLC. The mandate targets digital assets. Definitive business-combination agreement signed, closing pending.
“we intend to focus our search initially on identifying companies in the digital asset and cryptocurrency and adjacent sectors that power transformation and innovation.”
Reading the filings
Arithmetic on what Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. has disclosed, written the way a desk would read it. These are observations, not a rating. Nothing here scores the vehicle or implies a view on it.
Trading at a premium to trust
At $10.48 the shares trade 1.26% above the $10.35 redemption floor. Above trust the market is paying for the announced or expected deal rather than for the cash, so the premium is what is at risk if the combination does not close.
Trust versus the $10 unit
The trust holds $10.35 per public share, 3.5% above the $10.00 the units were sold at. That spread is accrued interest on the trust and, where the charter provides for it, sponsor contributions paid in to buy more time. It is the floor a public shareholder can redeem at, not a valuation of the business.
Time on the clock
90 days to the Jan 30, 2027 deadline. Inside ninety days a sponsor has three routes and no others: close, call a shareholder vote to extend (which opens a redemption window and usually costs a monthly contribution into the trust), or liquidate and return the cash. This is the window where redemption arithmetic starts to dominate the share price.
Warrant coverage
Each unit carried one-half warrant per unit. Warrants are dilution deferred: they cost the holder nothing until exercised, and they overhang the post-combination share count. Thinner coverage is generally a sign of a stronger book at pricing.
Underwriting
Clear Street led the offering. It has been named on 43 SPAC IPOs, book-running 34 of them, and 87.5% of its resolved vehicles closed a deal. The syndicate has no control over whether a sponsor finds a target, but the quality of the book at pricing shapes who ends up holding the units.
From listing to the date Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. must close a deal, extend again, or return the trust. The marker is today.
Filings per month since the first one. A vehicle that has gone quiet with a deadline ahead is a different proposition from one that is still working.

Attention is not quality. FOMO rises on news volume and on the market paying above trust, both of which have preceded plenty of disappointments.

definitive agreement signed
Potential is about execution, not about the target. It says nothing about whether the eventual deal is worth owning, because the target is usually unknown when the score is computed.
These are derived measures, not ratings of investment merit. They carry no view on the target, no price target and no recommendation, and a high score is not a reason to buy anything.

Digital Asset Acquisition Corp.: questions answered
What is Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. (DAAQ)?
Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. is a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in Cayman Islands and registered with the SEC under CIK 0002052162. It completed its initial public offering in Apr 2025, raising $173M in gross proceeds and listing on Nasdaq. Class A shares trade under the ticker DAAQ, units under DAAQU, warrants under DAAQW on Nasdaq. The vehicle is sponsored by DAAQ through DAAQ Sponsor LLC. The mandate targets digital assets. Definitive business-combination agreement signed, closing pending.
How much does Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. hold in trust?
Approximately $180,097,053, or about $10.35 per public share, as at the most recent filing on record. Trust balances move: shareholders redeem at extension votes and at the combination vote, and sponsors pay contributions in to extend. Treat the figure as a point-in-time disclosure, not a running balance.
When must Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. complete a merger?
By Jan 30, 2027. If no combination closes by then the sponsor must seek a further extension or wind the vehicle up and return the trust.
What happens if Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. does not find a target in time?
The charter requires the vehicle to redeem 100% of the public shares and return the trust, pro rata, to public shareholders. That is the mechanism working as designed rather than a default. Founder shares and warrants are worthless in that outcome, which is why the sponsor's incentive is to get a deal done or to buy more time. Across the market, deadline lapsed without a deal; trust returned to public shareholders.
Can I redeem shares in Digital Asset Acquisition Corp., and at what price?
Public shareholders may elect to redeem in connection with a combination vote and at each extension vote, at the pro-rata trust value on the relevant record date, most recently disclosed at about $10.35 per share. Redemption is a right attached to the public shares only; warrants and rights carry no claim on the trust. The mechanics and the deadline for electing are set out in the proxy statement for the vote in question.
What tickers does Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. trade under?
Class A shares trade as DAAQ on Nasdaq, the units as DAAQU, and the warrants as DAAQW. Units trade first and separate into their component securities roughly 52 days after the IPO; only the Class A shares carry the redemption right against the trust.
Is the trust value the same as the share price for Digital Asset Acquisition Corp.?
No, and the gap between them is the whole trade. Trust per share is a disclosed, contractual figure of $10.35, being what a redeeming holder receives. The market price is whatever the shares change hands at: most recently $10.48, a premium of 1.26% to the redemption value. Quotes on this site are delayed and indicative; confirm on your own venue before trading.
How much dilution do Digital Asset Acquisition Corp.'s founder shares and warrants create?
Each unit also carried one-half warrant per unit, which is dilution deferred until exercise. Both are disclosed in the prospectus and both survive into the combined company, which is why a de-SPAC at $10 is not economically the same as an IPO at $10.
Who sponsors Digital Asset Acquisition Corp., and what is their track record?
DAAQ Sponsor LLC is the sponsor entity, part of the DAAQ franchise. This is the only vehicle we have attributed to that sponsor.
Which banks underwrote the Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. IPO?
Clear Street, Cohen & Company. Clear Street and Cohen & Company were credited as book-running managers on the cover. Syndicate membership and role are read from the prospectus cover and the underwriting section.
Is Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. tradeable, and where?
Yes. DAAQ returned a live quote of $10.48 on Nasdaq. Quotes here are delayed and refreshed on a schedule rather than streamed, so treat the figure as indicative and confirm on your own venue. Units and warrants trade under their own symbols and are quoted separately.
Is Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. a good investment?
That is not a question this site answers. Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. is covered here as reference data: what the company filed, when it filed it, and what the numbers in those filings say. The Edge, FOMO and Potential scores on this page are derived measures with a published formula, not ratings of investment merit: they describe the setup, and every component is shown so you can take them apart. We publish no price targets and no recommendations, and nothing here should be read as advice. The figures are a starting point for your own work, and each one carries the accession number of the filing it came from.
Where does this Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. data come from?
Filings Digital Asset Acquisition Corp. submitted to the SEC under CIK 0002052162: the registration statement and final prospectus for the structure, quarterly and annual reports for the trust, current reports and proxy statements for deals, votes and extensions. Trust economics are taken from the registrant's own XBRL tags rather than parsed from prose, which is why they are exact. Every filing in the history above is listed with its accession number, which identifies the document uniquely on EDGAR; Pro accounts open it directly from the row.

Every figure on this page is read from documents the registrants filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, principally the IPO prospectus (Form 424B4), quarterly and annual reports, current reports and proxy statements, the registrant's own XBRL tags for trust economics. Nothing is sourced from press coverage, from the companies themselves, or from a third-party aggregator. Where a filing does not disclose something, the field is left blank rather than estimated.
