The cryptocurrency market in 2026 is experiencing a fundamental shift in investment priorities. While previously speculative capital was attracted to token projects promising rapid growth, the focus is now shifting towards companies demonstrating a proven business model and clear regulatory compliance. This reorientation is especially evident in the growing number of crypto IPOs from infrastructure sector companies.

Successful examples like the BitGo IPO and announced plans for the public offerings of Ledger and CertiK indicate a reevaluation by investors of their selection criteria. Instead of speculative assets with high volatility, proven solutions in digital asset custody and blockchain security are taking the lead. Institutional investors are showing a clear demand for such platforms—those that offer reliable enterprise-level infrastructure.

This means that crypto IPOs are becoming not just a way to raise capital but a recognition of the industry’s transformation. Companies that provide security guarantees and full transparency to regulators gain a competitive advantage in the market. According to analysts, the trend toward regulated crypto IPOs will only intensify, reflecting the maturity and professionalism of the crypto sector as a whole.
