Consensys plans IPO: JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs on board!

On October 30, 2025, Ethereum software company Consensys' preparation for a possible IPO is in full swing. The company, founded in 2014 by Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin, has expanded significantly in recent years. Consensys specializes in developing infrastructure and tools for the Ethereum ecosystem, including services such as Infura and Linea, a Layer 2 network.

The renowned banks JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs were selected as leading institutions for the planned IPO. The possible IPO could take place as early as the end of 2025, although exact details on timing or valuation have not yet been announced. The selection of these two banks indicates the trust placed in the company, especially given the positive development of the crypto business market.

New features and investments

With the introduction of new features in MetaMask, Consensys' widely used crypto wallet, investor interest could increase significantly. This includes the introduction of the MASK token as well as expanded trading functions. These developments could not only increase the user base, but also significantly increase the monetary funds required for the IPO.

Consensys has already invested over $200 million in on-chain yield strategies and most recently raised a funding round (Series D) in 2022 that raised $450 million and valued the company at $7 billion. Such significant investments indicate Consensys' growth potential and innovation, which will be crucial for its upcoming IPO.

Legal challenges and market environment

Recent developments also show that Consensys is capable of overcoming legal challenges. In February 2025, the company won a legal battle when the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dropped a lawsuit against MetaMask. This result could increase investor confidence and have a positive impact on the upcoming IPO.

Additionally, Consensys could benefit from a more favorable regulatory environment that may accompany the expected return of the Trump administration. With successful IPOs from other crypto companies this year, such as Circle and Bullish, market sentiment is optimistic. These factors combined could help Consensys IPO become a milestone in the crypto space.
