Its subsidiaries operate an additional 33,862 active mining rigs in the U.S., while around 12,000 units remain inactive in facilities across the U.S. and Hong Kong.
The company’s financials reveal a significant reliance on cryptocurrency mining. In the 2022 fiscal year, mining accounted for nearly all of Bgin’s revenue.
The company diversified in April 2023 by launching its line of mining machines, which contributed to over 85% of its revenue for that year. Proceeds from the IPO are expected to bolster research and development efforts, supporting the firm’s push into more efficient mining technologies.

Bgin’s IPO Plans Align with Renewed U.S. Crypto IPO Surge
Bgin’s public offering plans coincide with renewed interest in crypto-related IPOs in the U.S., particularly after former President Donald Trump’s recent election win, which has been seen as favorable for the crypto industry.
Several crypto companies, including trading platform eToro, crypto custody firm BitGo, and exchange Gemini, are also reportedly preparing for public listings.
eToro announced on February 12 that it had confidentially submitted IPO plans to the SEC, while BitGo is reportedly in discussions for a potential launch in the latter half of 2025. Gemini is also said to be exploring IPO options this year.
BitGo reignited IPO speculation after launching a global over-the-counter (OTC) crypto trading desk on February 19. At a conference the same day, CEO Mike Belshe emphasized the importance of crypto firms going public to engage more effectively with Wall Street.
