Cameron und Tyler Winklevoss prophezeien: Bitcoin könnte 1 Million US-Dollar erreichen

Die Winklevoss-Zwillinge, frühe Bitcoin-Pioniere und Gründer der Gemini-Börse, sehen den Krypto-König auf dem Weg zu einer siebenstelligen Bewertung. Ihr jüngster Ausblick elektrisiert die Community – und treibt traditionelle Finanzanalysten in den Wahnsinn.

Warum eine Million Dollar?

Bitcoin durchbricht immer wieder Erwartungen. Die Zwillinge argumentieren mit Knappheit, institutioneller Adoption und der Flucht vor inflationären Fiat-Währungen. Während Banker noch über Zinssätze debattieren, schmiedet die Krypto-Community bereits Pläne für die nächste Bullenphase.

Ein Stich ins traditionelle Finanzherz

Natürlich rollen sich in der Wall Street die Teppiche hoch bei solchen Prognosen. Dort rechnet man lieber mit konservativen Renditen – Hauptsache, die Gebühren stimmen. Bitcoin hingegen schert sich wenig um etablierte Modelle und macht einfach sein eigenes Ding.

Die Zukunft ist dezentral – oder gar nicht.

Gemini prices shares and sets cap on proceeds

Gemini’s initial public offering priced at $28 per share late Thursday, higher than the earlier expected range of $24 to $26, according to Bloomberg. That put the company’s valuation at about $3.3 billion. Tyler said, “we’ve come a long way,” during the same CNBC interview.

Demand for shares far outstripped supply. People familiar with the sale told Bloomberg that Gemini drew more than 20 times the orders for the shares available. The company and its bankers decided to stop taking new requests and set an unusual cap on proceeds at $425 million.

Without that cap, Gemini WOULD have raised up to $433 million based on filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The sale included an extra investment from Nasdaq, which committed $50 million in a private placement at the time of the IPO. That deal came on top of the capped proceeds and was first reported by Reuters.

Investors drive up crypto listings amid White House support

The company had already raised the proposed share price before the final sale, moving the range up from $17 to $19 per share to $24 to $26. At the top of that range, Gemini’s value would exceed $3 billion, Reuters reported. The final price at $28 showed how strong the interest was from investors.

The IPO added to a streak of crypto listings. Earlier this week, Figure Technology raised $787.5 million in an upsized offering. CoinDesk owner Bullish and stablecoin issuer Circle also boosted their sales earlier in the year.

The backdrop for these deals included new regulatory wins under President Donald Trump’s WHITE House, more companies using crypto, and rising inflows from exchange-traded funds. Together those factors pushed the sector’s value above $4 trillion.

Gemini’s shares started trading Friday under the ticker GEMI on the Nasdaq. The lead bookrunners for the IPO were Goldman Sachs and Citigroup, who guided the offering through the heavy demand.
