Digital Currency Firm Will Establish Global HQ at One World Trade Center

Digital currency firm Circle on Friday unveiled plans for a new global corporate headquarters for Circle Internet Group, Inc. at One World Trade Center. The announcement was made in Lower Manhattan at an event hosting industry, political leaders and key partners who have been central to Circle’s growth and success.

“Circle’s vision for a new internet financial system is coming alive in a tremendous and exciting way,” said Jeremy Allaire, co-founder and CEO of Circle. “One World Trade Center and all it stands for – freedom, strength and a projection of America’s central role in the global economy – are the catalysts of global prosperity. Our new headquarters near the top of One World Trade Center is a symbol of the trust, security and stability we’re building as a critical infrastructure provider for the future of finance.”

Configured as a convening space to reflect Circle’s mission of building a more open, inclusive, safer and efficient global economic system, the new headquarters spans the entirety of the 87th floor and is set to open in early 2025. The company is relocating its headquarters from Boston, although its regulated U.S. money transmission business will remain Boston-based for the time being.
