According to Foresight News, The Information cited industry insiders as saying that investment bankers from leading Wall Street institutions such as JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have been meeting with cryptocurrency executives, hoping to gain access to possible initial public offerings (IPOs) of cryptocurrency companies after the election. This enthusiasm reflects people's optimism about improved market and regulatory conditions after Donald Trump won the US presidential election, which may pave the way for companies such as Kraken, Fireblocks and Chainalysis to go public.
Bankers’ appetite for the conference is also a departure from much of the past two years, when many investment banks viewed cryptocurrency companies as too risky to do business with.
