Circle rings the opening bell to celebrate listing on the NYSE

Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, marked its debut as a publicly traded company by ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), where its Class A common stock is listed under the ticker CRCL. The ceremony, hosted by the NYSE and featuring Circle executives including co-founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire, was held to celebrate the company’s initial public offering (IPO) and formal listing on the exchange. NYSE highlighted Circle’s role over the past decade in connecting traditional finance with digital assets as part of the event messaging. Circle had previously announced the pricing of its upsized IPO at $31.00 per share for 34 million Class A shares, comprising both newly issued shares from Circle and shares sold by existing stockholders, with an additional 5.1 million-share over-allotment option granted to underwriters. The stock began trading on the NYSE on June 5, 2025, under the symbol CRCL, with major investment banks such as J.P. Morgan, Citigroup, and Goldman Sachs acting as joint lead bookrunners. The listing represents one of the most prominent U.S. public market entries by a stablecoin-focused fintech firm, further integrating a core crypto-market infrastructure provider into mainstream capital markets and providing public investors direct equity exposure to a major stablecoin issuer.
