Airbnb, Inc. is an online marketplace for arranging or offering lodging, primarily homestays, or tourism experiences. The company does not own any of the real estate listings, nor does it host events; it acts as a broker, receiving commissions from each booking. The company is based in San Francisco, California, United States.
The company was conceived after its founders put an air mattress in their living room, effectively turning their apartment into a bed and breakfast, in order to offset the high cost of rent in San Francisco; Airbnb is a shortened version of its original name, AirBedandBreakfast.com.

While IPOs improved the public listing revenues, Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs) also saw an increased embrace in the US within the year.
Earlier, Coinbase was considering going public through a direct listing as opposed to the traditional IPO. But at that time it didn’t file with the SEC.
