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).
