Bithumb is Considering Listing on Nasdaq
Bithumb, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges in South Korea, is considering listing on the U.S. Nasdaq stock exchange. Korea Economic Daily reported that the company informed its shareholders at a meeting on Monday.
This latest development comes after reports in late 2023 that Bithumb was planning to go public by listing shares on Kosdaq, the South Korean counterpart to Nasdaq. The cryptocurrency exchange intends to go public in the second half of 2025 and chose Samsung Securities as its manager for the IPO.
While citing a Bithumb official, the report said the cryptocurrency exchange is considering all possibilities, both local and international.
