Animoca Brands Eyes U.S. Stock Market Debut in 2025, Bets Big on Web3 Gaming
Animoca Brands, the powerhouse behind some of the hottest projects in Web3 and blockchain gaming, is making waves again. According to CEO Robby Yung (yes, the Web3 champion himself), the company is gearing up for a major listing on a U.S. stock exchange in 2025—a bold move that could set the stage for the next era of decentralized gaming.
Not only is Animoca surviving the ups and downs of cryptocurrency markets (including the infamous “flash crash”), but it’s thriving. Yung revealed that roughly 25% of the company’s investment portfolio is now locked into Web3 gaming. For anyone new to the concept, Web3 is all about giving users more control over data, identity, and finances on the internet—think decentralized apps, digital collectibles, and play-to-earn experiences.
Crypto’s Wild Ride and Animoca’s Confidence
Earlier this year, the crypto world was rocked by a huge flash crash—where prices plummeted in minutes, sending shockwaves through exchanges and traders globally. But while some legacy industries might have crumbled, the robust foundation of projects like Animoca’s stayed strong. As Robby Yung mentioned, these storms have only made the Web3 sector more resilient.

A $5 Billion Vision: Animoca’s Plans to Bring Web3 to the Mainstream
With a reported valuation back in 2022 of nearly $5.9 billion (Fortune), Animoca Brands is no stranger to thinking big. Its hope for a U.S. public offering means more transparency, access, and opportunities for young investors and gamers alike. For Gen Z and millennials, this could spell a new dawn where financial empowerment and digital freedom go hand-in-hand.
Why Young People Should Care: The New Digital Politics
Some might shrug off Web3 as just another tech trend, but the reality is much more powerful. As governments around the world, including U.S. regulators (SEC), grapple with how to police cryptocurrency and blockchain tech, young people find themselves at the heart of the action. Web3 gives you—not legacy banks or Silicon Valley giants—control over your assets and digital identity. It’s a chance to redefine financial participation and even influence policy.
Animoca Brands’ approach isn’t just about games—it’s about empowering a generation to own their economic future. As debates over tech regulation and digital rights heat up (just look at the latest coverage from CoinDesk Policy), it’s clear that what happens in crypto could shape democracy, privacy, and power for decades to come.
