According to its registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company reported a net loss of $159 million in 2024 and a loss of $283 million in the first half of this year. The Winklevoss brothers, who are recognized as early Bitcoin investors and the first Bitcoin billionaires, have consistently advocated for Bitcoin as a superior store of value compared to gold. In a recent interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box, they expressed their belief that the price of the market’s leading cryptocurrency could reach $1 million within the next decade, saying it could easily increase tenfold from its current price. GEMI Stock Peaks At $40 The Winklevoss twins’ exchange debut on the Nasdaq follows those of Circle (CRCL), the issuer of the second-largest stablecoin by trading volume (USDC), and Bullish (BLSH), the Peter Thiel–backed exchange, which were among the first crypto firms to go public this year.

Since, the stock has retraced toward its current valuation of $34. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com
