History
Bullish was founded in 2020 in Hong Kong by Brendan Blumer, who had previously launched Block.one.[2] It began its operations in May 2021.[2] The company was initially seeded by Block.one with 164,000 Bitcoins valued at around Template:US$, Template:US$ in cash, and 20 million EOS.IO tokens. It also raised Template:US$ from investors including Peter Thiel, Alan Howard, Louis Bacon, Christian Angermayer, and Richard Li.[3]
Bullish was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on June 22, 2021.[4]
In 2021, Bullish announced plans to become a public company through a Template:US$ merger with a special-purpose acquisition company (SPAC); however, the deal was canceled in December 2022 after the SPAC was unable to secure the necessary approvals.[2]
In November 2023, the company acquired CoinDesk for approximately Template:US$.[5]
In August 2025, Bullish became a public company via an initial public offering (IPO), raising Template:US$.[6]
In May 2026, Bullish agreed to acquire transfer agent Equiniti from Siris Capital for $4.2 billion, including $1.85 billion of assumed debt and $2.35 billion in Bullish stock.[7][8]
