: Due to weak trading volumes and macro pressures weighing on valuations, crypto companies are pausing their long-awaited IPO plans. Hardware wallet manufacturer Ledger and MetaMask developer ConsenSys are among the companies that have delayed their IPOs. Ledger had previously planned to list on the New York Stock Exchange with a valuation of $4 billion.Sean Farrell, Head of Digital Asset Strategy at Fundstrat, stated that crypto trading volumes have fallen by approximately 75% year-to-date, putting pressure on the valuations of publicly listed crypto companies. In contrast, demand for IPOs from tech companies related to AI remains strong.Additionally, Bitcoin miners pivoting to AI infrastructure have become one of the better-performing segments in the crypto market. Sean Farrell also pointed out that Hyperliquid is one of the standout crypto ecosystems in 2026, generating approximately $850 million in revenue over the past 12 months. Its recent partnership with Coinbase has made USDC the canonical stablecoin on the platform. (coindesk)
According to NADA NEWS, ReYuu Japan, a company listed on Japan’s Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market, announced that, following mutual consultation, it has terminated the basic agreement with Canadian investment firm Universal Digital Inc. regarding a financing framework of up to USD 100 million (approximately JPY 15 billion). The agreement was originally intended to advance external financing arrangements related to ReYuu Japan’s Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) strategy; however, it was not a formal loan agreement, and neither the financing framework nor any actual borrowing had been finalized prior to termination. ReYuu Japan stated that the capital market environment for publicly listed companies pursuing digital asset treasury strategies has changed, with investors adopting a more cautious stance. The termination does not signify the suspension of its digital asset treasury strategy; rather, the company will continue evaluating the strategy in light of market conditions, financial soundness, and shareholder value.

Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated that privacy is becoming a core infrastructure direction for the next phase of the crypto industry. Recently, three institutional-grade blockchains focused on stablecoins and asset tokenization—Arc, Canton, and Tempo—have accumulated over $1 billion in total funding, indicating a rapidly growing demand from institutions for "privacy-friendly on-chain financial systems."Among them, stablecoin issuer Circle contributed $222 million in funding for Arc, giving it a valuation of approximately $3 billion; Digital Asset’s Canton blockchain is reportedly seeking $300 million in funding at a $2 billion valuation; and Tempo, backed by Stripe and Paradigm, has previously completed $500 million in funding at a valuation of $5 billion.Hougan noted that this funding wave reflects three major trends: the gradual clarification of the U.S. regulatory framework, increased institutional demand for on-chain privacy, and intensified competition among new blockchain networks supported by large enterprises. Current public blockchains still face structural trade-offs between speed, cost, security, and privacy. However, scenarios involving stablecoins and RWA tokenization require systems that simultaneously offer high performance, compliance, and privacy, making “verifiable privacy” a critical prerequisite for institutional adoption of on-chain finance.Hougan further stated that, for enterprises, “all transactions being publicly broadcast” is not an advantage but a potential flaw. In the future, users and institutions may find it increasingly difficult to accept a fully transparent on-chain financial environment. He believes that privacy capabilities could become the “killer app” driving the crypto industry into its next phase of mainstream adoption. Additionally, following the passage of the U.S. Genius Act in 2025, regulatory certainty has significantly increased, providing a clearer policy foundation for institutional funds to enter the crypto infrastructure space.
