Blumer, it should be noted, was among the team that led the record-breaking, year-long $4 billion EOS ICO in 2017.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The crypto exchange is currently led by Thomas Farley, the former president of the NYSE. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bullish is unique because it operates an institutional-focused crypto exchange targeting over 50 countries, excluding the United States. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Bullish IPO <a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/bullish.com\/news-insights\/news\/bullish-announces-pricing-of-upsized-initial-public-offering\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">launched<\/a> with 30 million shares, up from the initial 20.3 million, following a huge investor demand after a 20X oversubscription.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The success of this Bullish IPO meant the public company raised $1.1 billion, a solid reflection of strong demand, which was further bolstered by interest from BlackRock, the world\u2019s leading asset manager; and ARK Investment Management. These asset managers each committed up to $200 million at the IPO price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With BLSH stock prices rallying, Blumer, who controls 30.1% of the exchange, saw its position rise to $2.8 billion. Meanwhile, Kokuei Yuan, a board member controlling 26.7% of the company, saw his stake rise to $2.5 billion. On the other hand, Farley, who controls 3.8% of the company, saw his position increase to $355 million.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">DISCOVER: <\/span><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/next-crypto-to-explode\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">20+ Next Crypto to Explode in 2025<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Why is The Bullish Stock Rallying?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Several factors drove the BLSH surge, cementing its position as the best crypto stock to buy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">First, the Bullish IPO is timely. It is when crypto is booming and Ethereum and Bitcoin bulls are targeting fresh all-time highs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Earlier today, Bitcoin soared to as high as $124,700, printing new all-time highs. Meanwhile, Ethereum is on the cusp of breaking $5,000, registering fresh all-time highs, and breaking above 2021 highs. The uptick also lifted <\/span><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/best-solana-meme-coins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">top Solana meme coins<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, including TRUMP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Beyond the timely launch, the signing of the GENIUS Act into law in July 2025 created clarity that encourages institutions to explore and invest in some of the best cryptos to buy. Specifically, the GENIUS Act provides consumer protections for stablecoins, which, in turn, reduces uncertainty for the Bullish exchange and its stablecoin holdings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How Does Genius Act Signing Impact Stablecoin Market?\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qMxCKViqefE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bullish is also not new to crypto. The founder was involved with EOS, and the success of the EOS ICO provided precedent. However, the IPO is when the investment world had seen the success of the Circle IPO in June. CIRCL soared by over 150% after listing on the NYSE, setting a high bar for crypto stocks. Moreover, the BLSH stock was backed by BlackRock and ARK Investment. The two are heavily engaged in crypto, with BlackRock the top issuer of spot Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">DISCOVER: <\/span><a class=\"general-link\" href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/cryptocurrency\/best-meme-coin-icos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Best Meme Coin ICOs to Invest in 2025<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways\">\n<h2 class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__title\">Bullish IPO: Is BLSH the Best Crypto Stock to Buy?<\/h2>\n<ul class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list\">\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bullish IPO a huge success<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">BLSH stock soars to over $110 hours after trading began<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Institutions flowing to crypto, lifting sentiment<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<li class=\"nnbtc-key-takeaways__list-item\">\n         <span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Will Ethereum and Bitcoin spike to new all-time highs<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span>    <\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/news\/altcoins\/bullish-ipo-blasts-on-launch-is-blsh-the-best-crypto-stock-to-buy\/\">Bullish IPO Blasts On Launch: Is BLSH the Best Crypto Stock to Buy?<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/99bitcoins.com\/\">99Bitcoins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday, Bullish, a crypto exchange backed by billionaire Peter Thiel, one of the founders of PayPal, debuted on the NYSE under the ticker BLSH.
