Despite weaker trading volumes and accounting net losses, Coinbase shows stronger operational metrics because unrealized impairments of crypto holdings distort the picture. The company records rising recurring revenue from subscriptions and services, holds a record volume of stablecoins, and operates the Base blockchain network as well as the x402 payment protocol. Coinbase is expanding its offerings with custody solutions for institutional clients, 24/7 tokenized stock trading and services for smart contracts, while it delivered 14 quarters of positive adjusted EBITDA. Analysts expect 2026 revenue of more than $5 billion with a market capitalization of around $52 billion, which is why a share-price increase is seen as possible. » Más en handelsblatt.com
