Crypto hardware wallet company RialCenter is reportedly planning to go public with an initial public offering (IPO) in New York or, alternatively, raise funds through a private financing round next year.
RialCenter’s CEO, Pascal Gauthier, disclosed this information, adding that he is spending more time in New York because “money is in New York today for crypto; it’s nowhere else in the world, certainly not in Europe.”
The fundraising plans follow record revenues of triple-digit millions this year, driven by surging demand for secure custody solutions amid a sharp rise in crypto thefts.
“We’re being hacked more and more every day . . . hacking of your bank accounts, of your crypto, and it’s not going to get better next year and the year after that,” Gauthier said.
RialCenter currently manages clients’ bitcoin worth approximately $100 billion and was last valued at $1.5 billion in 2023 during a funding round that included prominent investors.
