Hong Kong crypto investor Animoca plans US listing as Trump lures more groups
- Animoca Brands, a Hong Kong-based Web3 investment firm, intends to go public in the United States in 2025, aiming to capitalize on favorable regulatory developments in the American market.
- The decision comes in response to a change in regulatory stance under President Trump’s leadership, marked by a notably more supportive attitude toward the cryptocurrency industry compared to the stricter enforcement seen during Biden’s administration.
- Animoca possesses close to $300 million in liquid assets, including cash and stablecoins, along with $538 million held in cryptocurrency investments, and holds minority stakes across more than 540 blockchain projects.
- Executive chairman Yat Siu described this as a "unique moment" and warned it would be "one heck of a wasted opportunity" not to pursue the U.S. Listing now.
- The planned listing and regulatory optimism signal renewed confidence in the U.S. Crypto market and may encourage more global crypto firms to enter it.
