The US-based crypto exchange’s public debut was met with much fanfare where many called it a breakthrough moment for the crypto ecosystem, as the crypto exchange with over 50 million registered users was among the highest valued company to make its public debut. The stock performance of the exchange might not have been phenomenal since its debut, but it has continued to work towards availing crypto services to millions of US customers.
Coinbase on an Ecosystem Building Spree
