BitGo Files for $200 Million IPO as Institutional Demand for Crypto Custody Grows

• BitGo has filed for a $200 million IPO on the New York Stock Exchange
• Investors are favoring compliant crypto infrastructure firms as traditional finance expands digital asset exposure.

BitGo, a major Cryptocurrency custody company, wants to go public in the U.S. market. It plans to list on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and raise about $200 million by getting help from the big banks like Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. 

BitGo is known for its crypto custody and was founded in 2013. It basically stores Crypto for the institutions and protects assets using a regulated, high-security infrastructure. It mainly focuses on the security and regulations. As more traditional institutions enter the crypto space, the value of crypto custody firms like BitGo increases. 

Key Factors Behind BitGo’s IPO Push

The four major reasons for BitGo to go public are:

1. Rising institutional demand – Big companies are buying more crypto, and they need a safer place to store it. 
2. Increases safe crypto businesses – After the crypto prices started to crash, people trust on the security, custody, and regulations more than the training platforms. 
3. Momentum for the other crypto IPOs – Recent public listing by firms like Circle shows crypto companies are increasingly entering the public markets. 
4. The IPO market is slowly recovering – the IPO market was weak after the crypto crash and is now slowly regaining its momentum. Investors are now avoiding the hype and choosing companies with real customers and revenue. BitGo already exists and has institutional clients worldwide. 

This signals growing confidence in the regulated crypto infrastructure and shows Wall Street’s interest in crypto custody rather than speculation. Custom companies like BitGo are the backbone of this shift. Even though markets remain cautious, BitGo’s IPO suggests investors are still willing to back core, regulated crypto services. 

If BitGo’s Ipo succeeds, then more crypto infrastructure companies will go public, and regulators will feel more comfortable with crypto becoming more stable and long-term. Institutions will increase in adoption, and crypto becomes more stable.
