USDC Creator Circle Files for IPO, Eyeing NYSE Listing Under “CRCL”

USDC Issuer Circle Files for NYSE Listing with 99% of Revenue from Stablecoin Reserves

  • Circle, the stablecoin company behind USDC, has filed to go public on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol “CRCL”.
  • The company reported that 99.1% of its $1.7 billion revenue came from managing stablecoin reserves.
  • USDC is the second largest stablecoin with $60 billion in circulation, making Circle’s IPO one of the most anticipated in the crypto industry.

Circle, the company that issues the USDC stablecoin, has submitted paperwork to become a publicly traded company. The firm filed an S-1 form with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Tuesday, seeking approval to list on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “CRCL.”

According to the filing, Circle generated $1.7 billion in revenue by the end of 2024, with an overwhelming 99.1% of that income coming from managing its stablecoin reserves. This revenue stream highlights the company’s primary business model centered around its digital dollar product.

USDC’s Market Position

Circle is responsible for USDC (USD Coin), which currently ranks as the second largest stablecoin by market capitalization. With approximately $60 billion in circulation, USDC has established itself as a significant player in the cryptocurrency market. This strong market position has made Circle’s potential initial public offering one of the most eagerly awaited events in the crypto sector.

Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies designed to maintain a steady value by being pegged to a stable asset, typically the US dollar. USDC is backed by cash and short-term US Treasuries, providing stability in the often volatile crypto market.

Growing Trend of Crypto-Related Public Offerings

Circle is not alone in its pursuit of public market access. The filing comes at a time when other crypto-adjacent companies are also exploring public listings. For instance, CoreWeave (CRWV), an Artificial Intelligence firm with strong ties to Bitcoin mining company Core Scientific (CORZ), recently began trading on public markets on March 28.

If approved, Circle’s public listing would represent a significant milestone for the cryptocurrency industry, potentially bringing greater mainstream visibility and regulatory clarity to the stablecoin sector. The company’s ability to generate substantial revenue from reserve management demonstrates a viable business model within the digital asset ecosystem.
