Coinbase stock (NASDAQ: COIN) was recently trading at nearly $204 per share after dropping a little over 1% over the past day. COIN has risen 14% over the past month amid an upturn in crypto markets, although that momentum halted Thursday after-hours following the release of first-quarter earnings, which fell short of expectations for revenue. The firm struck an upbeat tone, however, because of the more crypto friendly environment under the Trump administration and promising stablecoin adoption on the platform. The company went public in 2021 and has a current valuation above $50 billion. Futures traders buy or sell contracts that bet on what an asset's price will be at a predetermined expiration date.
