Bullish Stock Makes Blockbuster Debut on Wall Street The much-awaited IPO for crypto exchange Bullish went live for trading on Wall Street, on August 13. On the debut day itself, the BLSH stock witnessed strong trading activity, ending the trading session at $68, up from its IPO price of $37. The crypto exchange had previously upsized its IPO offering to 30 million shares, while receiving 20 times the subscription.
