Crypto exchange Gemini is facing a proposed class-action lawsuit filed in New York following an abrupt pivot in its core business model. The legal complaint alleges that the company transitioned toward a prediction-market-centric model shortly after its 2025 initial public offering (IPO). Plaintiffs argue that this unannounced strategic shift is directly responsible for a significant decline in the company's share value. In addition to the legal battle, the firm is grappling with mounting financial pressures, including widening losses and a series of staff layoffs. These compounding factors are expected to exert further downward pressure on equity prices and damage investor confidence. The outcome of this case highlights the increasing regulatory scrutiny and fundamental challenges facing crypto firms in public markets.
