Coinbase’s market value soared above one hundred billion dollars in Monday trading, a new milestone for the company.
The crypto exchange’s shares closed at 394.01, a 1.8 percent increase, and recorded a higher price of 398.50. This performance made Coinbase’s market capitalization reach a record high of $100.36 billion.
The record followed after Bitcoin soared to new records over the weekend. Worth noting is that Coinbase will become one of the most valuable companies in the financial sector, and it is already an important actor in the crypto realm.
Strong Growth Backed by Regulatory Momentum
Coinbase’s recent performance has been followed by a 50 percent stock growth within the last month. At the same time, this increase coincides with Circle Internet Group’s IPO and the changes in U.S. policy towards digital assets.
A huge increase was recorded in May when Coinbase joined the S&P 500. It was the first crypto-based company to enter the index. Analysts consider this evidence of the platform’s increasing acceptance in the mainstream finance sector.
In the first quarter, the firm’s revenue amounted to $772 million in non-transaction spending. It continues to increase its reach by attracting social media personalities such as AlexOnchain to increase its online following.
Experts Project Trillion-Dollar Potential
Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan has extended a good outlook on Coinbase. He proposed that the exchange would turn into a trillion-dollar organization. In a post on X, Hougan advised to put money in companies with a market value of less than 100 billion, but with long-term development prospects. In particular, he mentioned Coinbase, which had a valuation of $61 billion.
Coinbase stock prices were recorded at $375.07 on June 26, marking a new high compared to the previous high of $357.39 that the company had recorded in 2021. The fact that the company recovered in relation to its lows in 2022 shows renewed trust in cryptos and interest by institutions.
Stablecoin Legislation Spurs Market Confidence
Coinbase’s rally can also be connected to the development of stablecoin regulation. Recently, the United States Senate passed legislation in support of dollar-pegged stablecoins. Such trends boost Coinbase’s revenue prospects, with the company expanding beyond trading fees.
Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer pointed to stablecoin-based revenues as a long-term growth generator. This change in revenues consolidates Coinbase’s financial position in the trading competition.
Congressmen are set to pass important bills in the House. These consist of the rules over market structure and a Federal Reserve digital currency block. The rulings form part of what is a milestone as far as U.S. digital asset regulation is concerned, dubbed Crypto Week.
