Blockchain.com is aiming to go public by the end of the year, Bloomberg reported on Monday, citing people familiar with the matter.
The cryptocurrency financial services company is looking to raise about $500 million at a valuation of $4 billion-$6 billion amid discussions with prospective investors, according to the report.
London-headquartered Blockchain.com, which offers exchange, wallet, trading and lending services, filed confidentially for a proposed initial public offering (IPO) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) earlier this year.

Blockchain.com did not respond to CoinDesk’s request for comment.
