Hmm, still no date or price though huh? That is what I am really interested in. All of the other stuff just feels like talking without really having anything new to say! They just like to hear themselves!

I think part of it is to build up hype too. Still we know it will probably be a direct listing and how many shares will be issued. We're moving forward. I'm still not sure if I'm going to jump right in though.

I think a lot of it for me will depend on the price. That seems to always be what it comes down to!

115M shares means that there can be as many as 115M different investors, right? It's mind blowing that they got $300M+ in profit!!

Coinbase fees are somewhat high in the app. Coinbase pro is slightly better. Overall, the skimming in the Coinbase app makes it profitable for the shareholders - but not good in the long term as competitors can offer more transparency.

You can test my word by trying to buy at market price through their app - they give you crypto priced higher than true market price. Seems ok on Coinbase Pro (haven't validated personally yet), but at least fees are reduced.

  • Institutional execs moving into the space will lead to diminished value to the end user over time
  • Short term, the value to shareholders will be high as its name is up there with Robinhood + Crypto + BTC. Just on brand awareness alone I would be bullish.
  • Risks: locking people out of trades could lead to a mass exodus, esp. after the manner of Robinhood (WSB scandal) -- and Coinbase wouldn't be alone in that issue, Kraken cancelling margins is guilty as well (whether technical issues or intentional sabotage), also lawsuits by WSB-herds

One last note: though it may not seem it, Coinbase IPO may be inextricably linked to SEC ruling on XRP. The risk is there that some further regulations, taxation, limits set on cryptocurrency trading through Biden administration may cause a bearish environment on any crypto funds traded and Coinbase's debut.
