The Great Disappointment

$Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$a cryptocurrency exchange serving retail investors, businesses, and institutions.

On April 1, 2021, the company announced that it would begin offering publicly-traded shares, being listed on the Nasdaq under the name $COIN, following approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although expectations were already high, the valuation of this new stock exceeded them, with The New York Times calling it a “landmark moment” for bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency industry. The Nasdaq placed a pre-emptive reference price of $250 per share, but at market open, each one traded for $381.

The price further spiked to $400 and crashed back to $250 on the day itself and fluctuate between $250 to $280. Since then, the stock have never cross the $300 mark.

With the constant news of the media marketing cryptocurrency and also the exchange on coinbase, the price range still do not change.

With the high trading fee and lack of service provided by coinbase, I don't see how good this company is other than its simplicity.

Without the hype and FOMO on this IPO, this stock will be very stagnant. As a trader and investor, I would rather invest on crypto or other stocks than coinbase.

I highly recommend all traders and investors to beware of FOMO when trading/investing and stay firm to fundamentals when price are high or low. Do not let greed and fear shake us off its fundamentals. Stay safe trade safe.

    $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ ⚠️ Recap: When i wrote this article it was nothing below $100 a share. Now the price is a joke. Coinbase? Bad investment. I need to admit it's very low and a good time to enter now as a gamble but as an investment and asset, no. I wouldn't buy in as an investment and asset. 

    Believe in crypto? Then just buy crypto. Don't buy shares of this company.

    I agree. this is worse than crypto and neither it a proxy to direct crypto investment. it is an expensive lesson in buying this stock.

      if you are into crypto, you might as well buy them direct. I sold my coinbase buy other growth stocks instead. I also bought crypto directly.

    Agreed. Crypto already risky, invest indirectly to crypto w gov having capability to hav direct control is riskier. Weigh your Risk:Reward before jumping in

    do the homework before we invest. while $Coinbase Global, Inc.(COIN)$ has obtained licenses to operate in both Japan and Germany, recent hacks have raised concerns. the next quarter results will tell
