The crypto sector saw a strong momentum last year with companies securing $3.4 billion through IPO exits. But 2026? That's shaping up to be a game-changer.
Market insiders are eyeing several heavyweight players potentially making their exchange debut next quarter. BitGo's infrastructure play could attract institutional flows. Kraken's established user base positions it well in the current climate. A leading international exchange (previously known for its Asia-Pacific dominance) is weighing options. Consensys brings ConsenSys's Ethereum ecosystem credentials to the table. And Animoca Brands' Web3 gaming portfolio adds diversification to the mix.
The window for going public is widening. Regulatory clarity, institutional adoption, and stronger crypto market sentiment are all converging. If even a few of these materialize, 2026 could dwarf last year's numbers. The question isn't whether we'll see more IPOs—it's how many, and which ones move first.

Opportunities don't come often. I mentioned early on that this IPO window would open. If you're still on the sidelines now, you're really missing out.
Who will go public first, BitGo or Kraken? That's the key. Seizing the first-mover advantage is the secret to wealth.
I've been following the Consensys line for three years, and now it's finally coming to fruition. The trend is clear, everyone.
Don't wait until 2027 to regret it. 2026 is the peak. Time waits for no one.
The signals of institutional entry in this wave are so obvious. Why are some still debating the rise or fall? The big picture isn't clear enough, brother.
Animoca's move in the Web3 gaming sector is truly brilliant. I’ve always emphasized the importance of diversified strategies.
Clear regulations + institutional entry + market sentiment turning positive—these three conditions are all in place. What are you waiting for?
I've long said that the blockchain IPO wave will far surpass last year. Still, only a few people believe it now. What a pity.

The 2026 listing wave is coming, it feels like the crypto world is about to take off... but whether it can actually be realized is the real win.
