Circle, the company behind the USDC 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:stablecoin, has filed for a U.S. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:initial public offering, becoming the latest tech firm that is aiming to test the market as tariff uncertainty and worries about the economy’s health weigh on investors.
In its prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, Circle said it plans to list on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol “CRCL.” A stablecoin is a cryptocurrency wh𓄧ose value is pegged, or tied, to that of another currency, commodity, or financial instrument and so tends to be less volatile than other digital assets like Bitcoin. USDC, which was launched in 2018, is backed by U.S. dollar assets.
Circle, which had previously announced plans to go public in 2021 via a SPAC merger, said in Tuesday's SEC filing that its net income last year was $155.7 million, down from $267.5 million a year earlier. It had $1.68 billion in revenue and reserve income in 2024, versus $1.45 billion in 2023.
Circle will be braving a volatile 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:IPO market along with tech firms like 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:buy now, pay later giant Klarna, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:ticket reseller StubHub, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:online trading platform eToro, all of which filed IPO paperwork last month. IPOs have had a mixed performance in recent days. Nvidia-backed cloud computing company CoreWeave (CRWV) had a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:disappointing debut in the biggest U.S. tech IPO since 2023 though is now trading above its $40 IPO price. Meanwhile, conservative news channel Newsmax's (NMAX) shares surged on their🍎 first tradi🌳ng day Monday.
