Circle Internet Group, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, has officially launched its Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "CRCL". The company priced its upsized offering at $31 per share, raising approximately $1.05 billion. This marks a significant milestone for the stablecoin industry, as Circle aims to expand its global reach and further develop its financial technology offerings.
