Circle Internet Group (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>), the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, made a powerful public debut this week, with shares surging 37.8% to $114.57 Friday following Thursday's IPO. The stock opened at $69, more than double its $31 IPO price, giving the company an initial valuation of $6.9 billion.
What To Know: Circle <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/b45782777/circle-announces-pricing-of-upsized-initial-public-offering">raised</a> approximately $1.1 billion by offering 34 million Class A shares, including 14.8 million from the company and 19.2 million from selling shareholders. The company also granted underwriters a 30-day option to purchase an additional 5.1 million shares.
This IPO marks a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45800399/circle-surges-to-69-in-nyse-debut-raising-1-1b-as-investors-bet-on-stablecoins-going-mainstream">milestone</a> for Circle after a failed SPAC attempt in 2021.

This strategic pivot follows Circle's high-profile NYSE debut and may underscore Ark's conviction in the future of stablecoins.
The Circle Trade
On Thursday, Ark Invest purchased an eye-popping 4,486,560 shares of Circle, totaling approximately $373.42 million. The transactions were made through ARK Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKK#BATS">ARKK</a>), ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKW#BATS">ARKW</a>), and Ark Fintech Innovation ETF (BATS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ARKF#BATS">ARKF</a>). For the day, Circle shares closed at $83.23, rising a whopping 168.48%. The shares rose another 5.4% in the after-hours trading to $87.71.
This move comes on the heels of Circle's impressive NYSE debut, where the company <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45800399/circle-surges-to-69-in-nyse-debut-raising-1-1b-as-investors-bet-on-stablecoins-going-mainstream">raised $1.1 billion</a>, signaling strong investor confidence in the mainstream adoption of stablecoins. The acquisition by Cathie Wood's team could highlight Ark's bullish outlook on the stablecoin sector, as Circle positions itself at the forefront of digital payments and blockchain innovation. The timing of the trade, closely following Circle's successful listing and capital raise, suggests Ark is betting on the company's ability to capitalize on the growing demand for regulated, transparent stablecoin solutions. 
The Palantir Trade
Ark sold 76,654 shares worth about $9.2 million of Palantir through its ARKK and ARKW funds. On Thursday, Palantir shares dropped 7.8% to $119.91. In the after-hours trading, the shares registered a 1.4% rise. The move came as Palantir CEO Alex Karp <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/45800099/palantir-ceo-alex-karp-refutes-ridiculous-surveillance-reports-says-company-is-winning">addressed surveillance concerns</a> and emphasized the company's momentum in securing new contracts.
The Coinbase Trade
Ark trimmed its position by 161,304 shares in ARKK, ARKW and ARKF, a transaction valued at roughly $39.4 million.On Thursday, Coinbase shares closed at $244.20. This comes after Coinbase <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/crypto/cryptocurrency/25/06/45764843/coinbase-crushed-tesla-amazon-and-other-mag-7-peers-in-recent-rally-heres-what-drove-the-stunning-comeback">outperformed major tech peers</a> in a recent rally, fueled by renewed optimism in the crypto sector.
The Robinhood Trade
Ark sold 255,327 Robinhood shares through ARKK and ARKW, amounting to $18.51 million. Robinhood shares closed at $72.51 for the day. The trade followed a period of gains for Robinhood stock, as the platform continues to evolve its offerings and attract retail investors. Robinhood shares rose Thursday after the company reported <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45794817/robinhood-stock-is-rising-thursday-whats-going-on">record-high platform assets</a> and trading volumes for May, along with a 40% year-over-year increase in net deposits. The stock may also get a boost from a potential inclusion in the S&amp;P 500.

Cathie Wood Drops $373 Million On Circle's 168% Rally, Dumps Coinbase And Crypto Holdings — Is Ark Ditching Bitcoin for Stablecoins?

Circle (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/">USDC</a>) made a powerful entrance onto the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday, with shares of the stablecoin issuer (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRCL#NYSE">CRCL</a>) opening at $69, more than double <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/offerings/25/06/45785682/chamath-palihapitiya-says-circle-ipo-valued-at-7-billion-means-its-a-genius-buy-for-coinbase-heres-why">its $31 IPO price</a>.
The company raised approximately $1.1 billion through the sale of 34 million shares, securing a valuation of $6.9 billion and marking a major milestone after a previously unsuccessful public listing attempt via SPAC in 2021.
The timing of Circle's debut comes amid broader market uncertainty. 
As earnings season concludes, a majority of companies have offered cautious guidance, suggesting continued pressure on U.S. equities in the near term. 
Despite that backdrop, Circle&#8217;s business model has positioned it to benefit from a growing demand for digital dollars.

At the heart of the company's operations is USDC, a dollar-backed stablecoin increasingly used in digital payments, cross-border transfers, and corporate treasury management. 
That demand has accelerated in 2025, partly fueled by improving regulatory clarity in the U.S. which is expected to strengthen the legitimacy and utility of stablecoins within traditional finance.
A recent report from Deutsche Bank supports this outlook, suggesting stablecoins are nearing mainstream adoption. 
The bank highlighted their role in reinforcing the global dominance of the U.S. dollar and improving efficiency in international finance.
Circle's public listing is seen by some analysts as more than just a tech IPO, it reflects a broader market belief that stablecoins are evolving into foundational tools for the global financial system.
