Crypto IPOs are heating up as many crypto firms plan to go public, aiming to capitalize on a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment and growing investor interest. Crypto exchange Gemini IPO could debut at the end of Q3, a Wall Street expert claimed on Wednesday.
In an X post on July 16, prominent Wall Street and crypto expert Andrew Parish revealed that Gemini IPO is the next big thing in line following the blockbuster debut of Circle Internet IPO on the NYSE. He expects the firm to release another S-1 filing and roadshow soon to disclose further details on the number of shares and price range for the proposed offering.
He disclosed that Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, and Citi will serve as principal underwriters for the initial public offering of the Winklevoss twins’ crypto firm Gemini.
On June 6, Gemini confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form S-1 to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for an initial public offering (IPO) of its Class A common stock.
The firm will join several crypto firms, including Galaxy Digital and eToro, in filing to go public amid the pro-crypto regulatory environment. In addition, $33 billion AUM crypto fund manager Grayscale also filed for an initial public offering secretly with the U.S. SEC on July 14.
Circle Internet’s market cap has skyrocketed to over $42 billion, multiple times its valuation during the IPO. The stock price has rallied by over 636% in a month due to huge demand from institutional investors. Gemini and Grayscale Investments are expected to see similar demand if the SEC approves their S-1 registration.
