Swan Bitcoin, a leading financial services firm, has pulled the plug on its IPO plans due to the closure of its mining division. The decision was made by CEO Cory Klippsten on July 22, stating that the company had to cut expenses and address the consequences of mining revenue loss. 
Klippsten talked about staff cuts and said that the firm will not sustain its Managed Mining business in the short term. Klippsten said that due to the absence of the mining revenues the company cannot proceed with the IPO.&nbsp;

Klippsten explained, “Swan is pulling back from our accelerated spending plan for our core financial services business. Unfortunately, this includes staff cuts across many functions.” 
In January, Swan Bitcoin had begun mining and planned on going public within a year. The firm generated $125 million in revenue since 2023 and doubled the number of employees at that period. 
Klippsten’s statement comes at the back of the latest Bitcoin halving that has cut down mining incentives from 6.25 to 3.125 BTC per block. This occurrence resulted in a decline in the revenues of key mining corporations such as Bitfarms, which is in the crosshairs of Riot Platforms for an acquisition takeover. 
However, other mining companies are better off in 2024, with Swan Bitcoin being among the struggling firms in the industry. Mining firm from Germany, Northern Data intends to go for an IPO in the US in the first half of 2025. Also, Genesis Digital Assets is planning to go public soon as well as some other companies. 
This decision by Swan Bitcoin shows that the crypto firms are facing a lot of difficulties in the current market. It will now concentrate on solidifying and maintaining its base business of financial services as it adapts to the environment.
