Leading stablecoin issuer Circle finally launched an IPO. It has been preparing for this launch for almost a year, and joins several other crypto firms that are interested in an IPO filing.
This gives Circle a number of opportunities, both to benefit financially and to better integrate with the financial infrastructure and regulatory apparatus.
Circle’s IPO Comes At Last
Circle, one of the world’s largest stablecoin issuers, just filed for an IPO. The firm has been planning this move for nearly a year, relocating to the United States to make the process easier. Since Trump won the most recent Presidential election, the firm’s chances of an IPO increased, and now it has finally pulled the trigger:
“For Circle, becoming a publicly traded corporation on the New York Stock Exchange is a continuation of our desire to operate with the greatest transparency and accountability possible. We are building what we believe to be critical infrastructure for the financial system, and we seek to work with leading companies and governments around the world in shaping and building this new internet financial system,” founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire claimed in the filing.
By launching this IPO, Circle has opened a few new doors for itself. Of course, it’s a substantial opportunity for revenue, but it’s also an important way to intensify the firm’s connections to the financial infrastructure. In this respect, it joins a number of other crypto firms that have sought their own IPO in the last month.
Circle’s IPO filing doesn’t list many concrete numbers, such as initial public offering price, number of available shares, proceeds to the selling stockholders, etc. However, this development is very recent. Further details will likely come to light as the sale progresses.
