Aletheia Capital Starts Circle Internet Group (CRCL) at Buy

May 8, 2026 7:40 AM

Aletheia Capital analyst Brooksley Kang initiates coverage on Circle Internet Group (NYSE: CRCL) with a Buy rating and a price target of $145.00.

The analyst comments "Circle is a regulatory toll booth on the digital dollar. As global compliance tightens, regulated issuers collect rent on every dollar that moves through the perimeter, and Circle is the only fully-regulated, public-market stablecoin pure-play. We see three independent drivers: Coinbase renegotiation, the non-reserve growth driver (CPN, CCTP, Arc, x402), and structural USDC growth. We initiate Circle on Buy rating with $145 TP (28% upside)"
