Stablecoin issuer Circle Internet's shares climbed 48% on Friday, extending a stellar run after a blowout market debut on the New York Stock Exchange a day earlier.

The shares of the stablecoin giant Circle surged on its first day as a public company. In a post on the social media platform X, the issuer of the second-largest dollar-pegged stablecoin USDC and the euro-pegged Euro Coin (EURC) says its shares can now be traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE).

The stock price soared and opened at $69.50, a gain of 124 percent. In afternoon trading, shares traded at $92.68. Circle’s initial public offering is one of the biggest public listings for a crypto-related company in years.
