Expected listing
Crusoe was founded in 2018, initially focusing on cryptocurrency mining powered by flared natural gas. Since then, the company has transitioned to building hyperscale data center campuses for clients such as Oracle and OpenAI.
Last month, Axios reported that Crusoe recently met with investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to discuss the possibility of advancing an IPO in the near term.
