After a difficult week in crypto as bitcoin plunged from $95,000 towards the end of last week to its current $90,000, some crypto-related names are reclaiming a tiny bit of lost ground. Galaxy Digital (GLXY) is up 3% as is Riot Platforms (RIOT). Strategy (MSTR) is ahead 2%, and Hut 8 (HUT) 7%.
BitGo provides custody and security services for digital assets. Its IPO, which valued the company at about $2 billion, marks the first public offering for a crypto firm in 2026 after an IPO-heavy year in 2025. Among last year’s offerings: stablecoin issuer Circle (CRCL), digital asset platform Bullish (BLSH), and crypto exchange Gemini (GEMI).
