$Circle Internet Corp.(CRCL)$ I'm really not sure but when the lock in period is lifted and peeps can start selling, that's when the doom happens. But for those keen on picking up this stock, then that will present an opportunity to buy in. Pasting what I found on Google for those keen: The Circle (CRCL) stock IPO lock-up period is 180 days, meaning insiders are restricted from selling their shares for that period after the IPO.
