Coinbase Global, Inc. is an American company that operates one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges. It was established in 2012 by Brian Armstrong and Fred Ehrsam and has grown to serve over 100 million users globally. The company facilitates the buying, selling, and storing of digital currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The platform is notable for its scale and influence in the digital asset market. As of 2024, it is the largest cryptocurrency exchange based in the United States and the world's biggest custodian of Bitcoin. The company holds nearly $516 billion in assets on behalf of its clients, operating in more than 100 countries and controlling a significant portion of the global Bitcoin and staked Ether supply.
Recently, Coinbase has been featured in financial news due to significant movements in its stock price. Multiple reports in mid-November 2025 highlighted that its shares were among the most actively traded and volatile, often moving in correlation with the price of Bitcoin. These headlines generally noted a decline in its stock value as the price of Bitcoin fell below a key threshold, reflecting the company's close ties to the broader cryptocurrency market's performance.
