Spot trading volume on Coinbase came in at $49.4 billion in March, down 46% from the $91.8 billion in a year-ago period, according to The Block's data. "This gives us optimism that retail volume could have bottomed. Additionally, alt-coin trading as a percent of total trading volume on Coinbase has increased, indicating increased retail risk-taking in crypto," Needham's preview note read.Interest income from USDC came in at $146 million in the last quarter, up more than 100% from the previous quarter, even as full-year revenue fell. This income helped improve the exchange's revenue during the quarter.
"So given that COIN’s interest income is derived on a TTM basis, the recent decline in USDC in circulation will have a lagged impact," Coyne said. It may modestly impact 1Q results but will have a more outsized impact as the year progresses, Coyne concluded. Shares in the exchange were trading at $49.13 around 12:30 p.m. ET, down 4.2% since the open, according to TradingView data.
