Analysts Project Steep Q1 Revenue, Trading Volume Drop for Coinbase Amid Crypto Slowdown
Summary
Analysts are projecting a significant year-over-year decline in Coinbase's first-quarter revenue and trading volume, with expectations of $1.49 billion in revenue and $222.9 billion in trading volume, down from $2.03 billion and $393 billion respectively in Q1 2025. This outlook, driven by a prolonged crypto trading slowdown, comes just ahead of the company's Q1 earnings report on Thursday. The challenging environment is further underscored by the company's recent 14% workforce reduction, announced on May 5th, aimed at cutting costs. The anticipated slowdown is also reflected in competitor Robinhood's recent 47% drop in crypto trading revenue, suggesting broader industry headwinds. Traders will be closely monitoring Coinbase's official earnings release for confirmation of these trends and any updated guidance.
