Strong Market Opening Above IPO Price

The company's shares debuted at $37.01, significantly higher than the initial public offering price of $28. Gemini raised $425 million by selling around 15.2 million shares, according to a Reuters report. The initial price range for the offering was set at $24-$26 per share but was raised due to high investor demand.

Crypto IPO Wave Drives Market Recovery

Gemini’s debut marks the conclusion of a strong week for cryptocurrency companies in the U.S. IPO market. Blockchain lender Figure Technologies Inc. (NYSE:FIGR) also had a standout performance on Thursday, following the impressive debut of cryptocurrency exchange Bullish Global, whose shares more than doubled last month.

According to reports, billionaire twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss now own around 75 million shares of Bullish Global after its IPO, which are worth about $2.78 billion according to Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Financial Performance and Outlook

Despite reporting a net loss of $282.5 million in the first quarter, up from $41.4 million year-over-year, institutional adoption continues driving trading volumes. Nasdaq‘s (NASDAQ:NDAQ) $50 million strategic investment earlier this week boosted investor confidence.

Gemini joins Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN), Bullish (NYSE:BLSH), and Robinhood Markets Inc. (NASDAQ:HOOD) as publicly-listed digital asset exchanges serving U.S. investors.

Price Action: According to Benzinga Pro data, on Friday, the cryptocurrency exchange closed at $32.00, marking a 14.29% increase.
