According to Lex Sokolin (@LexSokolin), the upcoming IPOs of Monzo, Revolut, and Chime will result in over 15,000 employees with equity, potentially creating a significant influx of new angel investors in the cryptocurrency and DeFi markets. Lex Sokolin highlights that Monzo's IPO will empower 4,000+ equity-holding employees, Revolut's will impact over 10,000, and Chime's will include 1,000+ staff. This anticipated liquidity event could drive increased funding and trading activity in DeFi projects, injecting fresh capital and potentially accelerating innovation and token launches in the crypto ecosystem (source: Lex Sokolin on Twitter, May 15, 2025).
