Coinbase has received approval



Coinbase Global, the largest US cryptocurrency exchange, has received approval from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to list its shares on the Nasdaq, paving the way for what will be a landmark victory for cryptocurrency advocates.

The company, which plans to go public through a so-called direct listing, expects to list its shares on the Nasdaq under the ticker COIN on April 14.

In a direct listing, no shares are sold in advance, as is the case with an initial public offering (IPO). 

The company's share price is determined by orders coming into the stock exchange. Advocates argue it is a better way to price new stock rather than an IPO.

In a regulatory filing last month, Coinbase said its stock in the private market traded at a weighted average price of US$343.58 in the first quarter of 2021 through March 15, a nearly 13-fold jump in its valuation to around $68 billion in the space of a few months.

Congratulations Coinbase.

Coinbase didn't immediately respond to requests for additional comment on the moves, but confirmed that they were taking place. The move  does not seem to be going over well  with Coinbase customers in those countries, who value the anonymity of transactions using cryptocurrency.
