Earnings Miss, Stablecoin Revenue Up
The Coinbase Global (Coin) actions plunged Thursday in working hours after working hours after the Crypto Exchange missed Wall Street estimates on profits and income, despite several key sales stages during the quarter.
Coinbase reported $ 1.5 billion in the second quarter, not exceeding analysts’s expectations from $ 1.56 billion to $ 1.59 billion. While net profit came to $ 1.4 billion, adjusted net profit, excluding investment gains, was only $ 33 million.
The non-gaap profit was particularly low, with a profit at only $ 0.12 per share, well below the $ 1.49 per share that analysts had planned. A sharp drop in transactions income, driven by the drop in cryptographic trading volumes, weighed heavily on the results.
However, the quarter offered light points. While overall income has decreased by 26% compared to the previous quarter, subscription and services sales are not removed from 6% to $ 656 million, supported by the increase in Stablecoin sales, mainly in the USDC (USDC). Stablecoin income increased by 12% to $ 332 million.
For the future, Coinbase expects the subscription and service revenues to be between $ 665 million and $ 745 million in the third budget quarter.
Coin shares fell by more than 8% in exchanges after opening hours following the profits report, according to data from Yahoo Finance.

Coinbase celebrates “monumental” policy wins in the middle of a wider slowdown in T2
Despite a slowdown in the activity of the cryptographic market during the second quarter, the company underlined the major political developments in July as “monumental milestones” both for the broader exchange and industry.
Among the protruding facts: the signature by American president Donald Trump of the Act on engineering establishing a federal framework for the adoption of stablescoin, and the adoption of the Clarity Act, aimed at defining the structure of the cryptographic market.
Coinbase has also noted progress on its product roadmap, including the extension of its Stablecoin award program and the launch of the basic application, which attracted more than 700,000 users in its open beta waiting list.
For the future, the company has revealed that the plans for a new platform have nicknamed “all Exchange”, which will include real tokenized assets, prediction markets and sales of early tokens.
The platform will make its debut in the United States, with a “progressive international deployment based on jurisdictional approvals,” the vice-president of the Coinbase product, Max Branzburg told CNBC.
