Ledger, the French firm widely recognized as a global leader in cryptocurrency hardware wallets and self-custody solutions, is reportedly planning a significant Initial Public Offering (IPO) on a New York exchange. According to a report by the Financial Times (FT), citing individuals close to the matter, the company is aiming for a valuation exceeding $4 billion through the listing. This exploratory phase marks a major strategic step for Ledger, which currently dominates the secure storage market for digital assets. The move to list in the United States, rather than Europe, is driven by the deeper capital markets and the established investor base receptive to high-growth technology and crypto-adjacent businesses. While the discussions are considered preliminary and no final decision regarding the timeline or exchange has been made, sources indicate that Ledger is actively working with advisors to structure the offering. Ledger last secured funding in a round that valued the company significantly lower than the projected IPO target, highlighting the market’s growing appetite for essential blockchain infrastructure.
