Crypto exchange Coinbase reported revenue of $605 million in the fourth quarter, beating analysts' expectations of $588 million and up 5 percent from $590 million in the third quarter, according to FactSet, according to CoinDesk. The company's loss of $2.46 per share also beat expectations for a loss of $2.52 per share. However, its transaction volume fell 12% quarter-on-quarter to $322 million due to lower overall transaction volume. Coinbase stock has rallied sharply so far in 2023, up 78%, but is still down 67% over the past 12 months. Coinbase’s fourth-quarter subscription and service revenue rose 34% to $283 million, with interest income accounting for nearly 50% at $162.2 million. In its letter to shareholders, Coinbase said the crypto market has improved so far in the first quarter compared to the fourth quarter, with the company generating $120 million in trading revenue in January 2023. “Policy is the number one priority this year,” Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said on an earnings call with analysts.
