Thesis
Coinbase is heading into earnings with analysts already lowering their expectations because trading activity dried up over the summer — when fewer people buy and sell crypto, Coinbase makes less money on fees.

A double headwind of weak crypto trading volume and a risk-off stock market suggests the stock could fall further after its report. ## Story development — 2026-07-30 22:13 UTC **Coinbase profit misses but trading dominance hits a record — buy the dip on improving fundamentals** Coinbase just reported that its business is actually getting stronger — it captured
