Coinbase Q1 FY24 Earnings Estimate

According to the Messari report, the Coinbase net revenue will be propelled to a massive $1.5 billion. Furthermore, this unprecedented growth of 65% QoQ comes on the heels of an extraordinary performance over the past three quarters. In these quarters, Coinbase’s revenue estimates consistently outperformed analyst expectations.

Moreover, the transaction revenue is expected to account for 66% of the net income. Fueling this meteoric rise is the exponential surge in trading volume, led by the recent approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs and the subsequent surge to fresh all-time highs. According to Messari’s estimates, trading volume doubled in Q1.

Additionally, Goel expects Coinbase to beat the Wall Street gross revenue estimates of a staggering $1.2 billion. Moreover, insights acquired from ticker volume data underscore the pivotal role played by retail investors. In addition, these investors are expected to contribute 19% of the trading volume, significantly enhancing fee margins.

One of the most significant contributor to Coinbase growing revenue is Base, which is its Layer 2 solution. As per data from Token Terminal, Coinbase recorded a revenue of $20.52 million from Base in March 2024. This marks a 4x increase of February’s income of about $5 million.

Messari’s detailed estimates outline the breakdown of Coinbase’s revenue streams:

Net revenue: $1.5 billion, a remarkable 65% increase quarter-over-quarter.
Transaction revenue: Expected to reach $1 billion, soaring by an astounding 89%.
Non-trading revenue: Projected to rise by 12%, showcasing diverse revenue streams.

Furthermore, Goel underscored Coinbase’s strategic positioning as a preferred partner for Traditional Finance (TradFi) firms and its role as custodian for eight out of 11 Spot Bitcoin ETFs. In a testament to its versatility and innovation, Coinbase has successfully launched multiple on-chain products. Notably, the integration of Coinbase Wallet with Base enables seamless transactions, which catalyzed the recent surge.
