Yea, I'm pretty cool with this IPO as the company has built into filling quite a good niche while also putting pressure on MasterCard/Visa to clean up their monopoly softened act. I hope they find good success in the long term!
Edit: Oh please ignore my blindness, I didn't realize this was just a pure valuation announcement.
where does it say this is an ipo?
from the article: "Founded in 2010, Stripe is middle-aged by Silicon Valley standards, but Mr. Gaybrick and Stripe president John Collison said it had no plans to go public. "
