Cryptocurrency exchange Bullish has formally filed for an IPO, aiming to raise up to $629 million. The Peter Thiel-backed firm seeks to capitalize on renewed market optimism and regulatory easing. This marks Bullish’s second attempt at going public after a failed SPAC merger in 2022.
- Bullish aims for a $3.8-$4.2B valuation in its IPO, offering 20.3M shares at $28-$31 each.
- The exchange previously attempted a $9B SPAC merger in 2021, which collapsed due to market conditions.
- Bullish owns CoinDesk and plans to expand options trading and geographic reach, targeting institutional adoption.
