The firm, arguably the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S., made initial steps to go public in mid-December last year after confidentially submitting a draft registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Coinbase going public
“Coinbase Global, Inc. today announced its intent to become a publicly-traded company pursuant to a proposed direct listing of its Class A common stock. Such proposed listing is expected to be pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”),” the company wrote in a blog post.
The S-1 Form submitted last year will only become effective after the securities regulator completes its review process, subject to market and other conditions.
The exchange further said that “this announcement does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities.”
The exchange recently told its shareholders that it will launch a secondary market for its stock on Nasdaq Private Market.
Coinbase has come of age
The San-Franciso-based cryptocurrency exchange was founded in 2012 by Brian Armstrong and Fred Ehrsam.
In that same year, the company raised $25 million in funding from several venture capital firms such as Ribbit Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, and Union Square Ventures.
The company reached a milestone of 1 million users in 2014 and inked partnerships with Overstock, Expedia, Time Inc., Dell, and Dish Network.
In 2015, it raised $75 million and by 2017, the company generated $1 billion in revenue.
There were media reports in July last year that the company was planning to go public at the end of the year or in early 2021.
Who else is going public?
A few weeks ago, Intercontinental Exchange-owned Bakkt announced its bid to go public via a merger with VPC Impact Acquisition Holdings, valuing the exchange of $2.1 billion.
Coinbase and Bakkt’s intentions to go public have come at a time when the cryptocurrency market is bullish thanks to capital inflows from institutional investors.
Bitcoin, which has become the yardstick to measure the sentiment of the market, is trading at $32,863, more than 8% up in the last 24 hours.

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.
