TradingKey – On Monday, July 14, as Bitcoin (BTC) surged past $123,000 to a new all-time high, crypto asset manager Grayscale announced it had confidentially filed for an IPO with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). 

While the company did not disclose a timeline, it stated that the offering would proceed after SEC review and subject to market conditions.

The timing has drawn comparisons to Coinbase’s 2021 IPO, which coincided with Bitcoin’s then-record high of $65,000. Following its debut, Coinbase (COIN) stock plunged more than 90% from peak to trough, raising concerns that Grayscale’s IPO could follow a similar trajectory.

While the parallel may be coincidental, analysts caution that record-breaking Bitcoin prices often fuel bullish sentiment, creating an ideal window for institutions to offload shares at premium valuations. Grayscale’s IPO could be seen as a strategic move to capitalize on heightened investor enthusiasm while liquidity is abundant.
