Recently, the cryptocurrency exchange Bullish, supported by well-known investor Peter Thiel, announced an increase of its IPO target valuation to $4.82 billion, a move that has attracted widespread follow in the Web3 industry.

This valuation adjustment not only reflects Bullish's confidence in its own development prospects but also conveys a clear signal to the market: the profit potential of cryptocurrency exchanges is being reassessed. This trend could have far-reaching implications for the entire industry.

In the secondary market, this change may trigger a repricing of listed exchanges such as Coinbase, and it may also affect related companies that provide market making and custody services. Investors may reassess the valuations of these companies, looking for potential investment opportunities.

If the Bullish IPO progresses smoothly, we may see this valuation premium effect spread to the entire Crypto Assets infrastructure sector, particularly benefiting those enterprises with strong compliance.

It is worth noting that this valuation increase is not just an eye-catching story. It represents a substantial improvement in the financing environment of the Crypto Assets industry, marking the return of investor confidence. This wave of financing recovery is not limited to exchanges and may drive the development of the entire Web3 ecosystem.

As the market re-evaluates the profitability of crypto assets exchanges, we may see more similar financing activities. This is not only beneficial for the development of the industry but also provides new opportunities for investors. However, investors still need to be cautious and closely follow changes in the regulatory environment and their potential impact on the industry.
