Crypto Companies Rises in Valuation

The rise in cryptocurrencies price this bull season along with growing demand from institutions and retail traders alike has propelled it to the mainstream. Amid the growing adoption of cryptocurrencies, the valuation of crypto companies has seen a significant rise as well, where the likes of Coinbase, Bakkt, and many other mining companies are set to make their public debut. The Coinbase crypto exchange has a pre-market valuation of $100 billion.

Many other crypto companies might join the growing trend of going public this year and their rising valuation and growing investment is proof of the mainstream market showing acceptance for these digital asset companies.

The growing demand for cryptocurrencies related products and services has not just helped crypto service providers to gain traction among mainstream financial giants, it has also forced traditional financial companies to start offering crypto services to meet growing clients’ demands. Many wall street hedge funds and commercial banks are actively looking to gain exposure to Bitcoin and Bitcoin-related products.
