Bank of America Downgrades Coinbase Stock to Neutral, COIN Down 7%

Bank of America today said it is downgrading the stock of U.S. cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase from buy to neutral. The price of COIN is down 7% over the last 24 hours and is currently trading at $45.36—a drop of 86% from its all-time high of $357.39 on November 9, 2021.

Coinbase Posts Record Profit of $1.6 Billion in Q2, Ethereum Trading Surpasses Bitcoin

Coinbase announced second quarter earnings on Tuesday, posting a profit of slightly over $1.6 billion, which is nearly double what it posted in the first quarter. The company also announced revenue of $2.03 billion, which exceed analyst predictions of $1.88 billion. The company also reported a spike in user activity, noting that retail "Monthly Transacting Users (MTUs) grew to 8.8 million, up 44% from Q1 2021," and that its total base of verified users had climbed to 68 million.

Coinbase to Raise $1.25 Billion in Bond Sale Just 1 Month After Going Public

Coinbase on Monday announced it intends to raise an extra $1.25 billion by selling so-called convertible notes, a type of bond that lets the purchaser earn interest or else convert the holdings into stock. The move comes as something of a surprise given that the company is cash flow positive, and went public by means of a direct listing just over a month ago. That listing, however, did not involve the sale of new shares so the bond announcement appears to be a strategic decision to raise extra c...

Coinbase Narrowly Misses Earnings Predictions Amid Stock Slump

Coinbase reported first quarter earnings of $3.04 per share Thursday afternoon, narrowly falling short of analysts' estimates of $3.07. Overall, the company notched a profit of $771.5 million on revenue of $1.8 billion for the quarter. The profit and revenue numbers are impressive for a newly public company but are unlikely to make much of an impact on the market, given that Coinbase released a preliminary version of them on April 6, days before the company listed its shares. Thursday's numbers...

Coinbase To Acquire Crypto Data Service Skew

Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the US, is acquiring the London-based data and analytics startup Skew. The acquisition, announced today, will allow Coinbase to provide real-time data to institutional investors.  Skew was founded in 2018 by Emmanuel Goh and Tim Noat. It offers market data and charts tailored to crypto traders—it’s a little like Messari or TradingView. In an email to Decrypt, a spokesperson for Coinbase said that skewAnalytics—one of Skew’s data offerings—would b...

Coinbase Stock Closes 32% Down From High as Bitcoin Pulls Back

After a second-week of trading, shares in Coinbase have closed at $293.45. That's a 32% decline from its opening day high of $429.54 on its first day of trading. Coinbase, the largest US crypto exchange, debuted its COIN stock via direct listing on Nasdaq on April 14 at a price of $381, and quickly found buyers above the $400 mark before closing at $328. After recovering slightly mid-last week, it's been a steady drumbeat downward since—though the rate remains higher than the Nasdaq reference pr...

Did Coinbase Insiders Really Cash Out? It's Complicated

A viral tweet this weekend suggested top Coinbase executives held a fire sale with their personal stock—an accusation that, if true, would be cause for alarm since it implies they don't have faith in the future of their own company. But as with many things on social media, the tweet failed to provide a full account on what was going on, though it did underscore the new challenges Coinbase will face as a public company. If you missed it, the tweet in question showed a chart depicting certain stoc...

Coinbase Stock Debuts at $381, 52% Higher Than Reference Price

Coinbase, the San Francisco-based cryptocurrency exchanged led by Brian Armstrong, has finally gone public. The company's stock, $COIN, debuted on the Nasdaq on Wednesday afternoon at a price of $381, a 52% pop from its $250 reference price. (For comparison to other high-profile direct listings: Slack debuted at 48% higher than its reference price; Palantir 38% higher; and Spotify 26% higher.) The $381 share price gave the company a debut valuation just a hair under $100 billion. But the stock q...

Coinbase Is Eyeing NFTs as New Revenue Stream: CFO

Cryptocurrency giant Coinbase is exploring NFTs (non-fungible tokens) as a potential new business line, according to the company's CFO, Alesia Haas. In an interview with Decrypt, Haas said NFTs would be a natural fit for Coinbase's platforms and that the tokens could provide the company with a new source of transaction fees. NFTs are blockchain-based tokens that, unlike Bitcoin, represent unique ownership deeds to digital or physical items—anything from art to videos to tweets to concert tickets...

Coinbase CEO: Cryptocurrency Will Create a Wave of New Companies

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said that the crypto industry will create a wave of new companies in much the same way that the Internet did, in an interview with CNBC.

He acknowledged that some countries, such as China, went so far...

7 Secrets From Coinbase's Early Days

As Coinbase prepares to go public on Wednesday via direct listing on the Nasdaq, the company has taken pains to present a professional, buttoned-up image. Indeed, its cautious approach to things like security and regulation is a big reason Coinbase has become the household name among crypto companies—but this image is also a far cry from Coinbase's early days, when its mantra was to "run through brick walls."

Coinbase's $100 Billion Valuation 'Remains Ridiculous': Analyst

Despite the blowout Q1 financial results crypto exchange Coinbase released last week, its expected $100 billion valuation remains "ridiculous," according to a new report from stock research firm New Constructs first shared with Decrypt. Coinbase recently announced Q1 profit between $730 million and $800 million on revenue of approximately $1.8 billion. Those figures dwarfed Coinbase’s performance for the entire previous year, adding to speculation that Coinbase may see a valuation of $100 billio...
