Coinbase's stock price surges after Binance's forced departure from the US

Coinbase's stock price rose by 4% on Monday, reaching its highest level since April 2022 and increasing the year-to-date rally to 260%. The surge in price is attributed to Binance's forced departure from the US, which has resulted in Coinbase's CEO becoming 20% richer. Despite the recent increase, Coinbase's shares are still down 70% from their November 2021 high. Analysts believe that the crypto market can now focus on positive developments such as regulatory clarity and the potential approval of a bitcoin ETF, and that Coinbase may benefit from its overseas derivative trading business and its role as a broker for a U.S.-approved bitcoin ETF. Other pandemic-era market favorites, including Shopify, Roku, and Affirm Holdings, also hit 2023 highs on Monday, but are still down more than 50% from their 2021 peaks. Binance CEO CZ has stepped down as part of a $4 billion settlement with the US, while Binance's Changpeng Zhao has managed to maintain his multibillion-dollar fortune despite a guilty plea.

  • Coinbase Chief Legal Officer: US SEC blocks Coinbase’s request to disclose Gary Gensler’s communication documents

    Paul Grewal.eth, the Chief Legal Officer of Coinbase, wrote on the X platform that the issues of Chevron and Binance's secondary sales have been clarified, but in Coinbase's lawsuit, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has prevented Coinbase from requesting the disclosure of Gary Gensler's communication documents. In March 2021, Gary Gensler told the U.S. Congress that the SEC lacked regulatory authority over digital asset exchanges, confirming the long-held belief among market participants that digital asset trading on these exchanges is not within the jurisdiction of securities law. Coinbase has requested that Gary Gensler provide documents related to these communications because they are related to how the SEC's enforcement actions violate the due process requirements of the Constitution, but the SEC and Gary Gensler are trying to prevent the disclosure of these documents.
