Consensys is quietly slipping its name onto ticker boards somewhere on Wall Street.
The Ethereum stalwart is gearing up for an IPO, trading its hacker hoodie for a Wall Street suit faster than you can say “Web3 revolution.”

Blockchain companies that rake in revenue
Whispers from the financial grapevine, particularly Axios, point to heavy hitters JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs calling the shots on this debut.
It’s a striking tableau, the old guard of finance guiding a decade-old Ethereum titan into the glaring spotlight of public markets.
This move screams one thing, crypto infrastructure companies have grown up and are here to show off their financial muscles.
Just a few years back, the idea of a crypto firm even thinking about a U.S. IPO seemed as likely as finding a unicorn at your local Starbucks.
But industry experts say the Trump administration reshaped the rules of the game, flipping capital flows back to American soil and sending investor appetites growing for blockchain companies that actually rake in revenue, and don’t vanish with the weekend’s crypto volatility.
Full-on Web3 playground
Circle’s IPO parade drawing crowds like rockstars, paved the way, proving that the crypto world can thrive under the scrutiny of public markets.
Consensys, clutching MetaMask’s progress from simple wallet to full-on Web3 playground, is now ready for its star turn.
And MetaMask hasn’t been sitting idle. The rumored MASK token is in the pipeline, aiming to pump up user engagement and on-chain hustle.
Add to that plans for perpetual futures, a loyalty rewards fiesta, and a partnership with prediction market whiz Polymarket, and you’ve got a wallet that’s moonwalking into the new frontier of decentralized finance.
Blockchain infrastructure and financial mainstream
Fair to say, Consensys wasn’t always this Wall Street-glam. Founded in 2014 by Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin, it started as a scrappy start-up building developer tools for Ethereum’s blockchain infrastructure.
Now it runs Infura, the backstage engine for countless dApps, manages Linea, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling superhighway, and backs treasury whiz SharpLink.
Should the IPO go ahead, Consensys would be one of the first Ethereum-native titans to waltz onto the U.S. exchanges, marking a point when open-source brilliance graduates into serious financial mainstream.
For investors, this is a clear sign the crypto sector is finally shedding its wild west image and stepping into the polished shoes of institutional finance.
With JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs at the helm, Consensys’ public debut might just be the litmus test for blockchain infrastructure firms looking to go big.
