Gemini Plans to Go Public via Nasdaq as Crypto IPOs Boom
Gemini, the cryptocurrency exchange founded by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, has filed with the SEC for an initial public offering (IPO), advancing the wave of crypto companies entering the public market. The exchange intends to list on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the ticker symbol GEMI. Specific details about the number of shares or pricing for the offering have not yet been disclosed, nor is there a timeline for the IPO. Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley are among the lead bookrunners for the public offering.
