Coinbase Surges 10% as Senate Prepares to Vote on Landmark Crypto Regulation Bill
COIN sits 28% above its 52-week low of $139.18.
Summary
Coinbase shares jumped 10% to around $179 as the Senate readies a floor vote on the CLARITY Act this week. The bill would clarify SEC and CFTC jurisdiction over digital assets and establish rules for bank custody, lending, and trading—potentially unlocking institutional inflows. The House passed its version in July 2025, and the Senate Banking Committee approved it 15-9 in May; a unified draft now needs 60 votes before the August 7 recess. This follows a tough Q1 with a $1.49 EPS loss and workforce cuts, making regulatory clarity a critical catalyst for Coinbase's trading and custody revenue. The vote outcome will determine whether the rally sustains or reverses.
