Goldman Sachs has upgraded Coinbase’s stock from Neutral to Buy, citing an improved long-term growth outlook due to recent product launches and an increasing share of non-trading revenue. The analysts set a price target of $303, suggesting about 34% upside from recent lows around $225. While the upgrade reflects some optimism, Goldman remains cautious about the broader crypto market due to heightened competition and the impact of interest rate fluctuations on margins. The firm highlights that Coinbase’s revenue mix has shifted significantly, with structural crypto services like custody and staking now making up approximately 40% of revenue, compared to less than 5% five years ago. These areas are considered more stable than traditional spot trading. However, Goldman warns that profitability might be challenged in the near term as both traditional brokers and crypto-native firms expand their offerings. Regulatory risks also loom large, as much of Coinbase's potential upside hinges on congressional action regarding crypto market structure.
