Circle CEO makes the case for Anthropic IPO: public scrutiny is a net good
Kr00ney · x · 2026-09-19
Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire penned a long post urging Anthropic to push ahead with its IPO despite jittery markets, a crowded calendar, loud valuation debates and legitimate AI safety concerns. Arguing from experience — he took Circle public on the NYSE fifteen months ago while operating contested financial infrastructure — he contends that going public subjects frontier AI companies to public scrutiny and accountability, making it a net good for society.
