Coinbase misses Q2 expectations, Wall Street split on its growth strategy
Odaily News - After Coinbase's Q2 results fell short of market expectations, the stock briefly dropped to a roughly two-and-a-half-year low on Friday morning before paring losses to around $150. Over the past year, the stock is still down approximately 57%.Wall Street generally believes Coinbase underperformed this quarter, but opinions differ on the cause: some analysts attribute it mainly to a weak crypto market environment, while others have begun to question whether the company's growth strategy beyond its trading business can deliver.JPMorgan stated that Coinbase's results reflect a "challenging crypto environment," with new products contributing limited value to the income statement. The bank lowered its December 2026 price target for Coinbase from $196 to $148, while maintaining an "Overweight" rating. JPMorgan believes the company faces pressure across multiple business lines, with weak trading volumes dragging down transaction revenue and subscription and services revenue also under strain.Bernstein, on the other hand, believes Coinbase's long-term strategy remains attractive, but investors want to see more compelling execution, particularly in new business areas such as prediction markets and tokenized stocks.Mizuho warned that Robinhood is emerging as the mainstream alternative for retail crypto trading. Overall, Coinbase is still viewed as an important representative of U.S. crypto compliance infrastructure, but its valuation recovery increasingly depends on proving it is more than just a crypto exchange reliant on trading cycles.
Grayscale: HYPE Still Undervalued, Forward P/E Ratio Approximately 15 to 18 Times
Grayscale stated HYPE's forward P/E ratio is approximately 15 to 18 times. Hyperliquid possesses real cash flow and can therefore be valued like a stock, but the valuation is based on earnings per token rather than earnings per share. Based on this, compared with fintech peers such as Coinbase, Robinhood, and Circle, HYPE still appears inexpensive. Market data shows that HYPE is currently trading at $55.32, down 1.5% in the past 24 hours.
Coinbase Institutional Maintains Neutral Outlook on Crypto Market for Q3 2026
Coinbase Institutional and Glassnode have jointly released a market report, maintaining a neutral outlook on the cryptocurrency market for the third quarter of 2026. In the second quarter, the total market capitalization of the crypto market (excluding stablecoins) declined by approximately 12%, while stablecoin supply reached an all-time high. On-chain data suggests that Bitcoin may be transitioning from a correction phase to an accumulation phase, characterized by compressed valuations, near-multi-year lows in recent active supply, and the proportion of supply in profit breaking below historical statistical lower bounds—historically corresponding to accumulation rather than distribution zones. However, the macro liquidity environment remains tight, with the Federal Reserve maintaining a hawkish stance under Kevin Warsh's leadership, a strong U.S. dollar, coupled with geopolitical risks, selling pressure from digital asset treasuries, and net outflows from spot BTC and ETH ETFs in the first half of the year (though the pace of outflows has begun to slow), thus overall caution is advised.
TownSquare Announces Official Opening of Sonar New Subscription, 20% Allocation Raised Within 30 Minutes
TownSquare, an institutional yield and cross-chain lending brokerage service infrastructure, announced the official launch of its ICO public sale.

Tim Draper Reveals Why He Missed Investing in Coinbase Early On, Believing Crypto Market Was Too Early for Mainstream Adoption
Tim Draper, founder of Draper Associates, stated that his early decision not to invest in Coinbase was due to his judgment that widespread retail crypto adoption would still take a considerable amount of time, rather than a lack of belief in Coinbase co-founder and CEO Brian Armstrong.Tim Draper revealed that at the time, he had already invested in the early Bitcoin company Coinlab, which is why he initially did not invest in Coinbase. His son, Adam Draper, disagreed with this assessment and wrote the first check to Brian Armstrong. Tim Draper subsequently participated in Coinbase's next funding round. Coinbase was later founded by Brian Armstrong and Fred Ehrsam and grew into a crypto platform, listing on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol COIN.Tim Draper stated that Coinbase has become one of the representative investments of Draper Associates Fund V, with the returns from Coinbase alone nearly doubling the overall size of the fund.

据美国威斯康星州东区联邦地区法院 7月 28 日裁决，法院驳回了 CFTC 要求禁止威斯康星州对 Kalshi、Coinbase、Robinhood、Polymarket及 Crypto.com 等平台的体育相关事件合约执法的初步禁令申请。法院认为，CFTC 未能证明其主张——即《商品交易法》（CEA）对"掉期"的定义涵盖体育事件合约——具有胜诉可能性，且赌博监管属于州传统警察权范畴，联邦法律并未明确表示意图取代州法。此外，法院同时驳回了 Kalshi、Crypto.com 衍生品北美公司（CDNA）的介入申请及美国博彩协会（AGA）的被告介入申请。目前，CFTC 与威斯康星州的实质性诉讼仍将继续推进。

Coinbase seeks to offer derivatives, DeFi services, and tokenized assets in Canada
Odaily News: Eric Richmond, the new CEO of Coinbase Canada, stated that the exchange aims to provide Canadian users with the same advanced crypto products available in the U.S. market, including derivatives, DeFi services, and tokenized assets. Eric Richmond noted that Canada needs to transition from case-by-case exemptions to a dedicated and coordinated national digital asset regulatory framework to support more complex products. Canada was an early adopter of spot crypto ETFs and has already passed the "Stablecoin Act." He pointed out that, compared to the United States, Canada’s regulatory guidance is progressing more slowly and is more fragmented, which is delaying Canadian retail investors' access to higher-yield lending, broader futures trading, and similar products.

Galaxy Digital Commits $5 Million to Advance Bitcoin Quantum-Resistance Initiative
According to Decrypt, Galaxy Digital has officially launched the "Bitcoin Quantum Readiness Initiative," with three core pillars including: providing up to $5 million in post-quantum cryptography research grants to developers, publishing specialized research reports through Galaxy Research, and establishing a quantum advisory committee composed of scholars from multiple top universities. The initiative targets "Q-Day"—the critical moment when quantum computers utilize Shor's algorithm to crack Bitcoin's elliptic curve encryption, forge signatures, and steal wallet assets. Project Eleven predicts that quantum computers capable of cryptographic threats may emerge as early as 2030, at which point approximately 6.9 million BTC will face exposure risks. The Coinbase Quantum Advisory Committee has also called on developers to immediately initiate migration work. Meanwhile, Trump has signed an executive order setting the deadline for the U.S. federal government to complete post-quantum cryptography migration to December 2031.

Visa CEO on Open USD Competition: Visa Is Not Just Picking Winners
Visa CEO Ryan McInerney stated during the earnings call that Visa's role in the stablecoin space is not to pick winners, but to help clients securely and scalably connect to the stablecoin ecosystem.Last month, Visa joined forces with over 140 companies, including Stripe, Mastercard, BlackRock, and Coinbase, to support Open Standard, which plans to launch the stablecoin Open USD (OUSD) later this year. Following the announcement, market speculation arose that OUSD could challenge Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC.When asked whether Visa views OUSD as a competitor to USDT and USDC, McInerney said that Visa will maintain a "multi-currency, multi-chain" strategy going forward and will not bet on a single stablecoin, network, or infrastructure.He stated that Visa's goal is to support clients in accessing the stablecoin ecosystem, regardless of which stablecoin, network, or underlying infrastructure is ultimately adopted.Ark Invest analyzed that Visa is clearly interested in Open USD, but this does not necessarily mean it views OUSD as an exclusive strategic bet. Overall, Visa appears to be keeping its participation open at the stablecoin infrastructure level, rather than directly aligning with a specific stablecoin issuer.
