ConsenSys to pursue IPO next year…JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs selected as joint lead managers
Summary
- It reported that ConsenSys has selected JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs as joint lead managers to pursue an IPO.
- It stated that examples of virtual asset companies, such as Circle, that successfully went public this year and the recently improved market environment are positively influencing ConsenSys's push to go public.
- It reported that ConsenSys's flagship service, MetaMask, is preparing to issue its own token, 'MASK'.
ConsenSys, the parent company of MetaMask, is pursuing an initial public offering (IPO).
According to an Axios report cited by The Block on the 30th (local time), ConsenSys has selected JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs as joint lead managers to prepare for a listing.
ConsenSys is expected to leverage the recently improved market environment, similar to virtual asset (cryptocurrency) companies such as Circle and Bullish that successfully went public this year. In particular, the successful IPO of Circle, the issuer of the stablecoin USDC, has positively affected investor sentiment toward digital asset companies.
Meanwhile, ConsenSys's flagship service MetaMask is preparing to issue its own token 'MASK'. Joseph Lubin, ConsenSys's chief executive officer (CEO), said last month, "The launch of the MetaMask token is imminent."
