Shares in Coinbase Global have rallied more than 125% this year, reflecting positive investor sentiment. However, regulatory pressures and stagnant trading volumes in the depressed crypto market have raised concerns about the stock’s future performance.
Coinbase Global Inc’s stock, currently priced at $78.72, has experienced a 30.57% gain over the past year. The downgrade stems from ongoing U.S. regulatory scrutiny and the lawsuit filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against the exchange. The SEC alleges that the company offered some unregistered securities, posing a threat to Coinbase’s core trading business.
