Cryptocurrency wallet provider Blockchain.com is considering going public as soon as this year, people familiar with the matter told <a href="https://www.bloombergquint.com/business/crypto-firm-blockchain-com-said-to-plan-ipo-as-soon-as-this-year" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bloomberg</a>. However, the plans for IPO are not completely confirmed this year and could move until next year.

In April, Blockchain.com rival Coinbase went public in a historic direct listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange that valued the US-based exchange at more than $100 billion.

While Blockchain.com is the latest large crypto business to look at the IPO route, it’s unlikely to be the last. A host of high-profile crypto players, including crypto exchanges Kraken and stablecoin issuer Circle, are also considering the prospect, and more could do so soon.

Earlier last month, Blockchain.com reached a $14 billion valuation in a Series D funding round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners and UK-based independent investment manager Baillie Gifford, the London-based company said.

The U.K.-based company also raised $300 million in March last year at a valuation of $5.2 billion which also included Lightspeed and VY Capital participated in that round.
