☆ Mizuho says Coinbase will miss third-quarter revenue by 10%
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-04 | by ( Tanaya Macheel | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

Mizuho is lowering its revenue estimates for Coinbase following a seasonally weak quarter that was further pressured by low trading volumes. Mizuho maintained an underweight investment opinion on Coinbase shares as well as a $27 price target, which is about 62% below their current price. "We expect dwindling volumes combined with an expected drought in retail trading to meaningfully weigh on 3Q revenue." According to Mizuho, average daily trading volumes on the Coinbase platform were about $1 billion in the second quarter. As a result, Mizuho knocked down its revenue estimate for the quarter to $609 million from $652 million.

☆ Bitcoin price and Coinbase volumes are showing a rare decoupling, Mizuho says

It's becoming clear that investor apathy in this year's crypto market is starting to hurt Coinbase , according to Mizuho analysts. The crypto exchange's trading volume historically has been influenced by moves in the price of bitcoin . Mizuho maintains its underperform rating and $27 price target on Coinbase shares. Bitcoin trading volume across spot crypto exchanges is about in line with levels from Aug. 30, according to CryptoQuant. The price of bitcoin has remained stagnant in recent weeks despite having several positive developments in the same period on the regulatory and ETF fronts.

☆ What's good for bitcoin might not necessarily be good for Coinbase, analysts say

Many see the news as a strong signal that a U.S. bitcoin ETF will inevitably be green lit, which would help boost adoption of bitcoin. "If crypto trading transfers away from trading Coinbase directly and into ETFs (which, for many investors, might be the preferable way to get exposure), trading activity at Coinbase could decline further." Coinbase shares rallied nearly 15% Tuesday following the news, but the stock was down nearly 1% in trading Wednesday. "We believe a bitcoin ETF could increase competition and put pricing pressure on retail take rates. Plus, COIN's reliance on bitcoin revenue has only increased, from 31% of transaction revenue in 2Q22 to nearly 40% in 2Q23."

☆ Coinbase just took a stake in stablecoin issuer Circle. Here’s what it could mean for the crypto exchange
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-22 | by ( Tanaya Macheel | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

Late Thursday, the companies announced that Coinbase had taken a minor equity stake in Circle, which includes a 50/50 revenue share of interest income going forward. "Centre will no longer exist as a stand-alone entity and Circle will remain as the issuer of USDC, bringing any Centre governance and operations responsibilities in-house." The U.S. stablecoin market has been held back by regulatory uncertainty this year, and the market cap for USDC has dropped nearly 42% since the start of the year, according to CryptoQuant. "All else is in fact not equal as [the] USDC market cap has drifted lower through 2Q23 and interest rates are subject to change." "The Circle equity stake deepens COIN's exposure to a dwindling asset class … casting doubt about the standalone business model of stablecoins."

REUTERS/Fabrizio Bensch/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsWASHINGTON, Aug 21 (Reuters) - PayPal's (PYPL.O) stablecoin is likely to succeed where Facebook's failed, thanks to the payment giant's standing in Washington and policymakers' greater understanding of the issues in the last three years. "From a policy perspective, there is a seismic difference between Facebook's Libra and PayPal's stablecoin," said Isaac Boltansky, director of policy research for brokerage BTIG. Dan Dolev, a senior analyst at Mizuho, said PayPal USD is not a game-changer for PayPal investors. When Facebook unveiled Libra, a stablecoin whose operations were based in Switzerland and which was pegged to a basket of currencies, executives made no secret of their ambitions. Facebook rebranded Libra, scaled it back and moved the project to the United States, in a bid to win U.S. regulatory approval.
