Animoca Brands Eyes U.S. Listing Amid Shifting Crypto Regulatory Landscape
Animoca Brands, a prominent Web3 investment firm, is preparing for a public listing in New York, capitalizing on what it describes as a "unique moment" under the TRUMP administration’s evolving stance on digital asset regulation. Executive Chairman Yat Siu revealed the plans in an interview with the Financial Times, signaling a potential announcement in the near term.
The move contrasts sharply with the regulatory environment under former President Joe Biden, which saw aggressive enforcement actions against major crypto entities like Coinbase and Kraken. Those cases have since been dropped, reflecting the current administration’s more accommodating approach to the industry.
