In a move that reflects the growing popularity of direct listings as an alternative to traditional IPOs, Bitcoin miner and AI infrastructure firm Ionic Digital filed for a direct listing on Nasdaq on Monday. The company, which operates in Bitcoin mining and AI infrastructure, seeks to go public by allowing existing shares to trade without issuing new stock through a conventional underwritten offering.
A direct listing allows current shareholders to sell their shares directly on the exchange without underwriters, reducing costs and offering more flexibility. The filing comes as the Bitcoin mining sector increasingly pivots toward AI infrastructure to diversify revenue streams. Peers such as Marathon Digital and Riot Platforms have similarly tapped public markets to fund expansions.
The timeline for Ionic Digital's Nasdaq debut has not been set, pending SEC approval. Investors will monitor regulatory developments and the market's valuation of the company upon listing, especially as Bitcoin price volatility continues to impact mining profitability.
