Coinbase reports unexpected loss, CEO shows optimism
Crypto exchange platform Coinbase has released its earnings report for Q1 2022, which discloses its first net loss as a public company of $430 million.
Coinbase revenue down by 27% YoY
The Q1 earnings report by Coinbase reports revenue of $1.165 billion, a year-on-year decrease of 27.05%, and a month-on-month decrease of 53.2%, resulting in a net loss of $430 million. The exchange reported a profit of $840 million in the fourth quarter of last year.Coming to the trading volume, the first quarter of this year recorded a trading volume of $309 billion, down 44% from Q4. Retail Trading Volume was $74 billion, down 58% from the previous quarter. According to the exchange, the sequential drop in Q1 was mostly due to weaker crypto market conditions in Q1 than in Q4. Institutional Trading Volume was $235 billion, down 37% from the previous quarter and accounting for 76% of total Trading Volume. Institutional Trading Volume was concentrated mainly in Bitcoin and Ethereum as compared to Retail Trading Volume.
Despite the net loss reported, the CEO brain Armstrong said that he has “never been more bullish” on where the Coinbase is as a company. During an earnings call, he expressed optimism by stating:
“There are so many customers beating a path to our door that we have to have all hands on deck just to keep everything running, so the down periods are often sometimes kind of a welcome change from that in the sense that we get to focus on building the next layer of innovation that will benefit us in the next cycle.”
Recent payment rails
Coinbase recently launched Coinbase Pay for both the Coinbase Wallet Chrome extension and Coinbase NFT, allowing any crypto wallet or dApp to connect to fiat rails. It has also started offering payouts to Visa debit cards via Checkout.com in dozens of countries as part of our international effort to "go broad."

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
