Circle Internet Financial, the company behind stablecoin USDC, said on Thursday that it had confidentially filed for a U.S. initial public offering as part of plans to become a publicly-traded company. LONDON/WASHINGTON, Jan 11 (Reuters) - Circle Internet Financial, the company behind stablecoin USDC, said on Thursday that it had confidentially filed for a U.S. initial public offering as part of plans to become a publicly-traded company. Circle did not disclose the number of shares it plans to sell or the proposed price range for its new IPO filing. Based in Boston, Circle controls the issuance and governance of USDC, a cryptocurrency pegged to the U.S. dollar. The IPO is expected to take place after the Securities and Exchange Commission completes its review process, subject to market and other conditions, the company said. The company had previously said it was valued at $9 billion, in a 2022 deal to go public via a special-purpose acquisition company. It ended that deal in December 2022. Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire said at the time that he was disappointed that the proposed transaction "timed out," but that the company still intended to go public. USDC is the second-biggest stablecoin, after Tether, and the seventh-biggest cryptocurrency overall, according to crypto market tracker CoinGecko. The tokens are backed by cash and cash equivalents, including short-term Treasury bonds. There are around $25 billion worth of USDC tokens in circulation, down from a peak above $56 billion in mid-2022, according to CoinGecko. After a period of rapid growth, the crypto industry slumped in 2022 and token prices dropped as investors grew more cautious and various high-profile crypto firms collapsed, including crypto exchange FTX. Circle announced layoffs in July 2023 and said it had ended investments in non-core business areas. $USDC #circle #usdc #ipo

稳定币 USDC 背后的公司 Circle Internet Financial 周四表示，作为成为上市公司计划的一部分，该公司已秘密申请在美国进行首次公开​​募股。
路透伦敦/华盛顿 1 月 11 日 - 稳定币 USDC 背后的公司 Circle Internet Financial 周四表示，作为成为上市公司计划的一部分，该公司已秘密申请在美国进行首次公开​​募股。
Circle 没有透露计划出售的股票数量或新 IPO 申请的拟议价格范围。
Circle 总部位于波士顿，控制着 USDC（一种与美元挂钩的加密货币）的发行和治理。
该公司表示，预计首次公开募股将在美国证券交易委员会完成审查程序后进行，具体取决于市场和其他条件。
该公司此前曾表示，在 2022 年通过一家特殊目的收购公司上市的交易中，其估值为 90 亿美元。该交易于 2022 年 12 月结束。Circle 首席执行官杰里米·阿莱尔 (Jeremy Allaire) 当时表示，他对拟议的交易“超时”感到失望，但该公司仍打算上市。
根据加密货币市场跟踪机构 CoinGecko 的数据，USDC 是仅次于 Tether 的第二大稳定币，也是第七大加密货币。这些代币由现金和现金等价物支持，包括短期国债。
据 CoinGecko 称，流通中的 USDC 代币价值约为 250 亿美元，低于 2022 年中期 560 亿美元的峰值。
经过一段时间的快速增长后，加密行业在 2022 年陷入低迷，随着投资者变得更加谨慎，以及包括加密交易所 FTX 在内的各种知名加密公司倒闭，代币价格下跌。
Circle于2023年7月宣布裁员，并表示已结束对非核心业务领域的投资。
