Gemini is exploring the possibility of going public, with an IPO potentially happening later this year.
Although no final decision has been made, discussions with advisors are underway. The exchange, however, has not commented on the matter yet.
This move comes as more cryptocurrency companies are eyeing IPOs, fueled by a favorable political environment under the Trump administration’s pro-crypto policies.
