Crypto Firm BitGo Eyes up to $1.96 Billion Valuation in US IPO
BitGo seeks $201 million from 11.8 million shares to leverage growing institutional demand for crypto custody services amid recovering IPO market momentum.
On Monday, BitGo filed for a US IPO targeting a valuation of up to $1.96 billion and aims to raise $201 million by offering 11.8 million shares priced between $15 and $17.
Rising sector momentum has prompted more crypto firms to plan public listings, including crypto exchange Kraken, after Circle and Bullish posted strong debuts last year.
Founded in 2013, BitGo has grown into one of the largest crypto custody firms in the United States, storing and protecting digital assets for institutional clients including banks, funds and asset managers.
Market turbulence from October has raised the bar for IPO hopefuls, while pressure on AI and tech valuations prompts a 'flight to quality', Lukas Muehlbauer said.
BitGo intends to list on the New York Stock Exchange under BTGO, with Goldman Sachs and Citigroup as lead underwriters for the offering.
