Gemini is a cryptocurrency exchange and custodian founded in 2014 by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss. The platform provides a secure and regulated environment for buying, selling, and storing digital assets. Over the years, Gemini has expanded its offerings to include services such as staking, a crypto rewards credit card, and the Gemini Dollar (GUSD), a stablecoin pegged to the U.S. dollar. In September 2025, Gemini successfully launched its initial public offering (IPO) on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol ‘GEMI’, achieving a valuation of approximately $3.3 billion. The company has also obtained regulatory approvals, including a Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license from the Malta Financial Services Authority, allowing it to operate across all 27 European Union member states. Despite facing regulatory challenges, such as a lawsuit from the New York Attorney General in 2023 related to its ‘Earn’ program, Gemini has taken steps to resolve these issues and continues to prioritize security and compliance. As of July 2025, Gemini serves approximately 549,000 monthly active users and 10,000 institutions across over 70 countries, managing over $21 billion in assets on its platform.
