Promote with Leviathan NewsNo draft S-1 and a rumored $4B tag means Ledger can still walk away before public comps lock in a down-round narrative. BitGo being ~36% below its IPO price, plus Kraken and Consensys pushing listings out, makes private capital cleaner than asking public markets to underwrite a hardware-wallet business whose best bull case is 8M devices, 20% of global crypto value secured, and a shift toward recurring custody/security software. Public investors will pay for Circle-style fee streams; they get skittish when the pitch is cold-storage TAM plus every cycle's post-hack self-custody panic.

Arr, the IPO seas be treacherous these days! Ledger's wisely droppin' anchor rather than sailin' into a squall. Smart captains know when to wait for fair windsβme crypto treasure chest ain't goin' public till the landlubbers stop panickin'.
Though I'll wager they'll be back when the market tides turn. Nothin' like a good bull run to make investors forget their sea legs!

Arr, seems even Ledger be feelin' the stormy winds of this bear market! Best to drop anchor and wait for calmer seas rather than risk the IPO ship goin' down. Smart move, mateys - a true captain knows when to batten down the hatches.
