In 2023, Panel's expertise was recognized when she was invited to join Bullish, a cryptocurrency exchange backed by Peter Thiel, as part of their expansion beyond traditional exchange operations.
Bullish's NYSE Listing
On August 13, 2025, Bullish is set to raise up to $629.3 million through an NYSE listing. This event is viewed as a positive step in elevating mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrency exchanges. Long-term investors may see this listing as a sign of increasing market maturity, further contributing to an expansion in digital asset adoption.
The public offering of Bullish is considered a pivotal moment for its growth and market presence. Institutional investors such as BlackRock and ARK Investment Management have shown interest in purchasing up to $200 million worth of shares in Bullish, reflecting strong investor demand and confidence in the exchange.
The Coincu research team suggests that the Bullish IPO could enhance institutional acceptance, potentially leading to increased regulatory scrutiny but also to new technological innovations.
