Gemini Space Station, the crypto company founded by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, priced its initial public offering at $28 per share late Thursday.

Gemini, a cryptocurrency exchange founded by Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, began trading on the Nasdaq with an initial surge of 45% above its IPO price. The stock opened at $37, significantly higher than its $28 per share pricing, despite the company's declining revenues and widening losses in the first half of the year.

Trading was temporarily halted due to volatility, a common occurrence for IPOs with small floats that can lead to outsized price swings. The debut follows strong initial performances by other crypto companies like Circle and Bullish, though those stocks later traded below their highs. Market observers noted potential rotation from established crypto stocks into Gemini.

Gemini halted for trading

Gemini is open for trade, a pop of 45%. Let's get to Leslie Picker at the Nasdaq. Les. Hey, Mel. Yeah, that stock opened just moments ago. Currently trading up about 45%. It opened at $37. That was about 33% higher than the $28 per share that Gemini priced at last night. I don't know if you can see behind me, but you have Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss. They're the founders of the cryptocurrency exchange Gemini. They're behind me at the trading desk giving each other big hugs when this one opened up again, 45% right now. This is a company that's about 11 years old, and in fact, its top line is declining. Losses have been widening in the first six months of the year, but it plays into this space cryptocurrency, which has seen tremendous demand from the buy side in the deals we've seen come to market this year, including Circle and Bullish. Both have performed very well on their first day of trading. So we'll keep an eye on this one throughout the day, but so far off to a very big start up about 45% here at the Nasdaq Stock Exchange. Guys, I'll send it back to you. It seems like maybe the stock was halted. Sometimes that happens because of the volatility bands that they put around there, just because of the extreme movement. You mentioned Circle and Bullish. They did have massive one-day pops, but they've also traded way off their highs in the subsequent weeks. Yeah, that's always the risk here is that obviously, you've got some pretty small floats with these IPOs, and therefore, you get the volatility. It's always a matter of supply and demand. And when you have the small float coming out of the IPO, you tend to see those outsized volatility moves. And I believe a lot of the other crypto names are actually trading lower today. Some of the discussion over here at the Nasdaq was this idea of maybe it's a rotation out of the legacy crypto names that are already trading, and then some of the demand coming into Gemini today. But that's definitely one to watch in the coming days as, of course, this stock finds its footing and settles down a bit. All right, Leslie, thanks very much.
