Original Title: Crypto custodian BitGo down 12%, falling well below IPO price on second trading day
Original Link:
Shares of BitGo (BTGO), which went live on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on Thursday, are down 12% midday on Friday, largely underperforming other crypto stocks.
The stock, which traded as high as $24 following its IPO at $18 per share, was last changing hands at $16.53, down 8% from that IPO price.
After a difficult week in crypto as bitcoin plunged from $95,000 towards the end of last week to its current $90,000, some crypto-related names are reclaiming a tiny bit of lost ground. Galaxy Digital (GLXY) is up 3% as is Riot Platforms (RIOT). Strategy (MSTR) is ahead 2%, and Hut 8 (HUT) 7%.
BitGo provides custody and security services for digital assets. Its IPO, which valued the company at about $2 billion, marks the first public offering for a crypto firm in 2026 after an IPO-heavy year in 2025. Among last year’s offerings: stablecoin issuer Circle (CRCL), digital asset platform Bullish (BLSH), and crypto exchange Gemini (GEMI).

Another story of an IPO falling below expectations... BitGo dropped 12% just on the second day, I think this time it's a bit uncertain.

12%? It's only the second day... But then again, the competition in crypto custody is already fierce, and BitGo doesn't really have any special moat, right?
