Circle's CEO explains why the dollar is going digital

It has been a very eventful year for stablecoin player Circle (CRCL). The company completed its IPO in June. Then, in July, President Trump signed the GENIUS Act, which is seen as a significant future tailwind to the crypto and stablecoin industries. While Circle’s stock price is well off its highs amid a broader pullback in the crypto space, it’s hard to deny the company’s business progress and how it sets it up for success in the years ahead. At the helm of Circle is CEO and co-founder Jeremy Allaire, who has been winning over industry critics, including those on Wall Street and in government, for years. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi sits down with Allaire on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast to discuss what drives him to push Circle to new heights and what he has in store for 2026. If you are a believer in crypto and stablecoins — or not — then this is the conversation you need to hear for the best possible context! Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid Unfiltered brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves, and shrewdest commentary in the business world. Executive Editor Brian Sozzi puts Wall Street's finest through their paces in this essential conversation for every investor, before the stock market opens.
