Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, is resolute in its pursuit of going public despite facing a prolonged IPO approval process.
Earlier this year, in January, the company filed a draft registration statement with the SEC for an initial public offering.
Despite the nine months that have elapsed since this filing, Circle’s CEO, Jeremy Allaire, remains optimistic, expressing a strong commitment to entering the stock market.
He emphasized that the company is well-positioned financially and has built a robust business model, indicating that they are not currently seeking additional funding.
Circle’s earlier attempt to merge with Concord Acquisition, a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC), fell through in 2022, which would have facilitated its public listing. Nevertheless, Allaire is hopeful that a significant stablecoin regulatory bill may be enacted after the upcoming November elections.
He believes that clearer regulations would attract traditional financial institutions to the crypto sector, as they typically prefer working within a regulated framework. Circle has already been aligning its operations to meet these regulatory standards.
