Circle (NYSE: CRCL) stock price reached $199.59, with a total market capitalization of $44.417 billion, providing substantial profits for early investors. According to financing data from RootData and Circle's prospectus:

Accel and General Catalyst have key advantages from early entry. The A round investment of $9 million had the lowest cost, with an initial valuation low (possibly in the millions), resulting in a nominal multiple exceeding 4000 times based on the current market value, but the prospectus shows significant dilution of their holdings.

IDG Capital is an important player in early investments in Circle in China. Although its participation in rounds C, D, and E may be affected by dilution, post-IPO, IDG Capital holds 10.4% of Class A shares, ranking first, followed by General Catalyst (10%), Breyer (6.7%), and Accel (5.4%). Circle co-founders Jeremy Allaire and P. Sean Neville hold 78.9% and 21.1% of Class B shares, respectively.

DCG strategically invested $25 million in Circle and supported Circle in promoting USDC through Genesis Trading, although the valuation was not disclosed. Based on estimates from previous rounds, the valuation is approximately $3-4.5 billion. If calculated at a $3.5 billion valuation, DCG's $25 million investment would translate to the current market value of $44.4 billion, yielding a potential multiple of about 12.6 times. Combining the financing rounds and the prospectus, DCG's low-cost entry and holding until the IPO peak have provided it with a high return on investment.
