Digital asset custody giant BitGo has submitted an initial public offering (IPO) application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). As a leading provider of institutional-grade custody solutions in the industry, BitGo's move marks an acceleration of Web3 infrastructure companies integrating into mainstream financial markets. This application has garnered widespread industry attention—after all, custody security has always been a core consideration for institutions entering crypto asset allocation. Whether BitGo can successfully go public will not only impact the company's own development but could also serve as another indicator of traditional capital's recognition of the crypto industry.

Custody security is indeed key, but let's look at the data—how are BitGo's cold storage audit records? This is the real factor determining whether a company can go public, not public opinion.

The term "industry barometer" is a bit too optimistic; the SEC's stance is still unclear.

Is BitGo going public? Honestly, it all depends on the attitude of the SEC folks, that's the key. --- The security of custody sounds good as a selling point, but will institutions really buy it... --- Another Web3 project trying to integrate into the mainstream, let's wait and see how it ends. --- If this gets approved, the crypto community will celebrate once again haha. --- I think BitGo's move is quite steady, at least hitting the pain points. --- They've already submitted the IPO application, which shows they are confident. --- Custody is indeed a necessity, but whether the SEC will give face is hard to say. --- Instead of worrying about whether it will pass, it's better to think about what will happen afterward. --- Institutions' biggest concern when allocating crypto assets is security. BitGo highlighting this is clever.

BitGo going public is a good thing. If it weren't for strict custody regulations, institutions would have rushed in long ago. If it gets listed this time, it will probably trigger a wave.

Is BitGo going public? This time, traditional finance really can't sit still anymore. Everyone wants a piece of the custody cake. Will the SEC cause some trouble again? Anyway, I don't have high hopes. Honestly, this is what infrastructure should be doing. Making big money quietly is much more comfortable than going public. Going public means having to look at Wall Street's face. Not sure if it's a blessing or a curse. Institutions have been wanting to enter but lacked an anchor. BitGo has seized the opportunity. It's promising, but we still have to wait for the SEC's response. The approval process is truly extraordinary. Once custody security is in place, it’s worth this position. Now it all depends on whether it can withstand the review.
