Coinbase's Trading Volume Skyrockets Post-Binance Settlement

Author : Renuka K

Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, experienced a remarkable 62% increase in trading volume following Binance's recent regulatory settlement of $4.3 million. This surge in volume coincided with a significant 73% rise in COIN's stock price over the past month, reaching around $137 as of December 1. This growth is attributed to Coinbase and Bybit capitalizing on the market share lost by Binance, particularly outside U.S. trading hours. Analysts from Kaiko reported that Coinbase's share grew substantially in European and Eastern Asian trading times. These developments have led to Coinbase's COIN stock outperforming flagship cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, with a year-to-date increase of over 260%​​​​​​​​​​​​.
