What to know:
- Thailand-based Bitkub is considering an IPO in Hong Kong to raise approximately $200 million.
- The exchange had previously considered an IPO in Thailand but was deterred by the poor performance of the local stock market.
Thailand-based digital assets exchange Bitkub is mulling an initial public offering (IPO) in Hong Kong, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg.
The exchange may look to raise roughly $200 million from the IPO, possibly next year, the sources said, adding that discussions are ongoing and details could still shift.

Bitkub, founded in 2018, previously considered an IPO in Thailand, but the dour performance of the domestic stock market played spoilsport. Thailand's stock market, one of the worst performers globally this year, has seen an average of over 12% drop in listings in 2025, with the index itself falling 10%.
Bitkub is Thailand's largest cryptocurrency exchange with a total 24-hour trading volume of $60.75 million, according to data from Coingecko.
Hong Kong is actively looking to establish itself as the regional digital asset hub, supported by a clear regulatory roadmap from the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) and Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA).

IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge!
The post IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 18:00 Discover why BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet launch makes it the best crypto to buy today as Story (IP) price jumps to $11.75 and Hyperliquid hits new highs. Recent crypto market numbers show strength but also some limits. The Story (IP) price jump has been sharp, fueled by big buybacks and speculation, yet critics point out that revenue still lags far behind its valuation. The Hyperliquid (HYPE) price looks solid around the mid-$50s after a new all-time high, but questions remain about sustainability once the hype around USDH proposals cools down. So the obvious question is: why chase coins that are either stretched thin or at risk of retracing when you could back a network that’s already proving itself on the ground? That’s where BlockDAG comes in. While other chains are stuck dealing with validator congestion or outages, BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet will be stress-testing its EVM-compatible smart chain with real miners before listing. For anyone looking for the best crypto coin to buy, the choice between waiting on fixes or joining live progress feels like an easy one. BlockDAG: Smart Chain Running Before Launch Ethereum continues to wrestle with gas congestion, and Solana is still known for network freezes, yet BlockDAG is already showing a different picture. Its upcoming Awakening Testnet, set to launch on September 25, isn’t just a demo; it’s a live rollout where the chain’s base protocols are being stress-tested with miners connected globally. EVM compatibility is active, account abstraction is built in, and tools like updated vesting contracts and Stratum integration are already functional. Instead of waiting for fixes like other networks, BlockDAG is proving its infrastructure in real time. What makes this even more important is that the technology is operational before the coin even hits exchanges. That…
