__________________
(1)Fair value, representing the closing market price of the Company s Class A common stock on the acquisition date.
The aggregate purchase consideration includes $150.0 million in cash subject to an indemnity escrow that expires 15 months after the acquisition date.
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations ( ASC 805 ), the acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method. The purchase consideration was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date with the excess recorded as goodwill, as follows (in thousands):
Goodwill$2,818,754
Intangible assets1,390,000

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash
112,928
Other assets and liabilities, net(58,866)
Net assets acquired$4,294,552
The goodwill is primarily attributed to the assembled workforce as well as the anticipated operational synergies from the integration of Deribit s trading platform with the Company s existing platform. The goodwill is expected to be deductible for U.S. tax purposes.
The following table sets forth the components of identifiable intangible assets acquired and their estimated useful lives as of the date of acquisition (in thousands, except for years data):

Customer relationships$1,059,000 15
Acquired developed technology288,000 6

Total identifiable intangible assets acquired$1,390,000 13
The customer relationships represent the fair value of projected cash flows derived from existing customers of Deribit and were valued using the multi-period excess earnings method. The present value of projected cash flows included significant judgment and assumptions regarding future revenues, attrition rates, and the discount rate.
Echo
On October 8, 2025, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Gm Echo Ltd ( Echo ), an onchain capital raising platform. The Company believes this strategic acquisition will play a key role in its goal to create more accessible, efficient, and transparent capital markets.
In accordance with ASC 805, the acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method. The total purchase consideration transferred in the acquisition was $176.0 million, which included $68.0 million in cash and $108.0 million in Class A common stock of the Company. Net
assets acquired were $23.7 million, and the excess purchase price of $152.3 million was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is primarily attributed to the assembled workforce as well as the anticipated operational synergies from the integration of Echo s platform with the Company s existing platform. The goodwill is expected to be deductible for U.S. tax purposes.
Other acquisitions
During 2026 and 2025, the Company completed other business combinations that were immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate.

lower blockchain rewards fees, which moved with blockchain rewards revenue;
a decrease in transaction rebates and commissions, primarily those earned by institutional customers providing liquidity on our international exchange, as we tapered incentive offerings; offset in part by
an increase in other, largely due to exchange fees associated with our prediction markets business.

Sales and marketing expenses increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to 2025, reflecting:
a $45.4 million and $103.7 million increase in USDC rewards driven by growth in average customer USDC balances held in Coinbase products as we continue to integrate USDC across our products, offset in part by a reduction in the rewards rate;
a decrease in marketing program expenses, largely due to a $21.3 million and $65.2 million decrease in digital advertising spend as a response to softer market conditions; and
an increase in other, primarily due to amortization of intangible assets acquired in the purchase of Deribit in 2025.

General and administrative expenses changed for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to 2025, reflecting:
an increase in employee-related expenses, primarily due to higher average headcount reflecting, in part, the shift of certain customer support roles from outsourced resources to employees, tempered during the second quarter of 2026 as a result of the Restructuring; and
a decrease in customer support costs, primarily due to lower transaction volume and fewer resources required after certain regulatory projects were completed in the prior year, as well as reflecting the shift of certain roles to employees.

Non-GAAP and Other Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial performance measure, is useful information to help investors evaluate our operating performance because it: enables investors to compare this measure and component adjustments to similar information provided by peer companies and our past financial performance; provides additional company-specific adjustments for certain items that may be included in income from operations but that we do not consider to be normal, recurring, operating expenses (or income) necessary to operate our business given our operations, revenue generating activities, business strategy, industry, and regulatory environment; and provides investors with visibility to a measure management uses to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. For example:
We believe it is useful to exclude certain non-cash expenses, such as depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation, from Adjusted EBITDA because the amounts of such expenses can vary significantly from period to period and may not directly correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations.
We believe it is useful to exclude certain items that we do not consider to be normal, recurring, cash operating expenses and therefore, not reflective of our ongoing business operations. For example, we exclude: (i) other expense (income), net, as the income and expenses recognized in this line item are not part of our core operating activities and are considered non-operating activities under GAAP, (ii) gains and losses on crypto assets held for investment because such investments are considered primarily long-term holdings, (iii) losses, net of recoveries, directly related to the Data Theft Incident, including voluntary customer reimbursements, direct legal costs, and reward payments, if any, in connection with the threat actor s arrest and conviction, and (iv) costs of the Restructuring, as these costs are associated with discrete organizational changes and are not reflective of our core, ongoing business operations. We do not plan on engaging in regular trading of crypto assets, and, as an operating company, our investing activities in crypto are not part of our revenue generating activities, which are primarily based on transactions on our platform and the sales of subscriptions and services.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to measure a company s operating performance without regard to items such as stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, other expense (income), net, and (benefit from) provision for income taxes that can vary substantially from company to company depending upon their financing, capital structures, and the method by which assets were acquired.
Limitations of Adjusted EBITDA
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA may be helpful to investors for the reasons noted above. However, Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to Adjusted EBITDA rather than net (loss) income, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent of Adjusted EBITDA. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA excludes:
(benefit from) provision for income taxes;
interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt, which reduces cash available to us;
depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future;
37
Table of Contents
stock-based compensation expense, which has been, and will continue to be for the foreseeable future, a significant recurring expense for our business and an important part of our compensation strategy;
losses directly related to the Data Theft Incident, net of recoveries;
net gains or losses on our crypto assets held for investment;
the impact of the Restructuring, which is not related to normal operations but impacted our results in 2026; and
other expense (income), net, which represents net gains or losses on investments and other financial instruments, and other non-operating income and expense activity.
In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA as a tool for comparison. A reconciliation is provided below for Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measure and the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):

Assets on Platform
We define Assets on Platform ( AOP ) as the total U.S. dollar equivalent value of crypto assets and payment stablecoins held or managed on behalf of customers in digital wallets on our platform, including our custody services but excluding assets for which the customer holds full or partial keys, calculated based on the market price on the date of measurement. AOP demonstrates the scale of balances held across our suite of products and services, the trust customers place in us to securely store their assets, and the underlying growth of the onchain economy. AOP also represents a monetization opportunity through our products and services, including from trading and the adoption and use of payment stablecoins, staking, custody, and institutional financing, when customers use these assets to engage with these products and services.

Monthly Transacting Users
We define a MTU as a consumer who actively or passively transacts in one or more products on our platform at least once during the rolling 28-day period ending on the date of measurement. MTUs engage in transactions that generate transaction revenue or subscription and services revenue. Revenue-generating transactions include active transactions, such as buying or selling crypto assets or passive transactions such as earning staking rewards and USDC rewards. MTUs also engage in transactions that are non-revenue generating, such as consumers sending and receiving crypto assets between wallets and off-platform accounts on a non-expedited basis. MTUs may overstate the number of unique consumers due to differences in product architecture or user behavior. MTUs for the three month period represent quarterly MTUs, which are calculated as the average of each month s MTUs in each respective quarter. MTUs for the six month period are calculated as the average of the quarterly MTUs within the period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
There have been no material changes to our liquidity and capital resources from those presented in the Annual Report, other than those described below.
We continue to believe our existing cash, cash equivalents, and marketable investments, which totaled $8.8 billion as of June 30, 2026, will be sufficient in both the short and long term to meet our requirements and plans for cash, including meeting our working capital and capital expenditure requirements. Our ability to meet these requirements and plans for cash will depend on many factors, including market acceptance of crypto assets and blockchain technology, our growth, our ability to attract and retain customers on our platform, the continuing market acceptance of our products and services, the introduction of new subscription products and services on our platform, expansion of sales and marketing activities, and overall economic conditions. We anticipate satisfying both our short-term and long-term cash requirements with our existing cash and cash equivalents and with future cash flows from operations, future sales of marketable investments, and potential future equity or debt financing. The sale of additional equity would result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of additional debt financing would result in debt service obligations, and the instruments governing such debt could provide for operating and financing covenants that restrict our operations.
Primary commitments
Long-term debt and other contractual obligations
We used cash to repay in full at maturity the $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of our 0.50% convertible notes due June 1, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, our outstanding long-term debt consisted of convertible notes and senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $6.0 billion, maturing between

Table of Contents
2028 and 2032. See Note 11. Long-Term Debt of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.
Our other contractual obligations decreased materially from those as of December 31, 2025, primarily due to the fulfillment of a strategic equity investment commitment. See Note 20. Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.
See Notes 13. Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets Details and 18. Income Taxes of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details relating to our short- and long-term material cash requirements as of June 30, 2026.
Short-term borrowings
As of June 30, 2026, we held short-term borrowings of $539.2 million, denominated in crypto assets and payment stablecoins, which we use to facilitate institutional financing. See Note 6. Collateralized Arrangements and Financing of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.
Repurchase program
As of June 30, 2026, our board of directors had authorized an aggregate $4.0 billion to repurchase, without expiration, our outstanding Class A common stock and long-term debt (the Repurchase Program ). As of June 30, 2026, approximately $2.0 billion remained available, and no long-term debt has been repurchased under the Repurchase Program. See Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities included in Part II, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.
Other resources and commitments
Crypto assets
We hold and use crypto assets for various purposes. Crypto assets held for operations are received in the ordinary course of business and are converted to cash or used to fulfill expenses, primarily blockchain rewards, nearly immediately. In order to facilitate institutional financing, we hold crypto assets we borrow, as well as crypto assets customers pledge as collateral against certain of our loans to them. We do not use these assets as a source of liquidity otherwise. Crypto assets held for investment are primarily long-term holdings and in certain cases fulfill capital requirements set by regulators (see also Capital requirements below). We do not plan to engage in regular trading of these crypto assets but may purchase additional crypto assets for investment as a buy and hold strategy. In case of a liquidity stress event, or for other episodic purposes, which may necessitate the use of these assets, we may change our policy and sell crypto assets held for investment to generate liquidity. During times of instability in the crypto assets market, we may not be able to sell our crypto assets at reasonable prices or at all. Our crypto assets held are considered less liquid than our cash and cash equivalents and may not be able to serve as a source of liquidity for us to the same extent as cash and cash equivalents.
As of June 30, 2026, we held the following crypto assets: $86.5 million held for operations, $1.6 billion held as collateral, $229.1 million that were borrowed, and $1.5 billion held for investment.
Customer assets and liabilities
Recognized customer assets and liabilities comprise customer custodial funds and corresponding customer custodial liabilities that represent our obligation to return these assets to the customers. We also securely store additional customer AOP that we do not recognize in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. We do not use customer assets as collateral for any loan, margin, rehypothecation, or other similar activities, without the customer s consent.
40
Table of Contents
Our business model does not expose us to liquidity risk if we have excessive redemptions or withdrawals from customers. As of June 30, 2026, we have not experienced excessive redemptions or withdrawals, or prolonged suspended redemptions or withdrawals, of crypto assets to date. See the section titled Risk Factors Depositing and withdrawing crypto assets into and from our platform involve risks, which could result in loss of customer assets, customer disputes and other liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition included in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report for further information.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our Financial Statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs, and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from our estimates. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows will be affected.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to the critical accounting estimates disclosed in the Annual Report.
Recent accounting pronouncements
See Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Recent accounting pronouncements of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion about new accounting pronouncements adopted and not yet adopted as of the date of this report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is the risk to our Financial Statements associated with the effect of changes in market factors, including risks associated with interest rates, foreign currency, derivatives, marketable and strategic investments, and crypto assets. These assets and liabilities are held for purposes other than trading, except for our marketable investments, which are available for trading. There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures from the information presented in Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Annual Report except for our market risk exposure on our crypto assets held for investment. Though the nature of this exposure and the overall implied volatility of the crypto assets underlying this exposure have not changed since December 31, 2025, the number of units we hold and the price of the assets have changed, resulting in a material change in the output of our sensitivity analysis.
42
Table of Contents
Crypto assets held for investment are primarily held long term, and historically, we have not attempted to reduce our market risk exposure associated with these crypto assets. Crypto asset prices have been volatile, as demonstrated by the one-year historical volatility of Bitcoin and Ethereum of approximately 50% implied from the annualized standard deviation of daily price returns observed in the past 24 months. A hypothetical 50% increase or decrease in crypto asset prices as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 would result in an $734.2 million and $1.0 billion impact, respectively, to the value of our Crypto assets held for investment and would have been recognized as a gain or loss in Losses on crypto assets held for investment, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The decrease in the hypothetical gains or losses since December 31, 2025 primarily reflects a decrease in the prices of crypto assets held for investment.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act ), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2026. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of June 30, 2026, our disclosure controls and procedures were, in design and operation, effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, is subject to inherent limitations, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, operating, and evaluating the controls and procedures, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, in designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any system of internal control over financial reporting, including ours, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business but cannot assure you that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
For a description of material legal proceedings in which we are involved, see Note 20. Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to our Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.
We are not presently a party to any other legal or regulatory proceedings that in the opinion of our management, if determined adversely to us, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. However, we are subject to regulatory oversight by numerous state, federal, and foreign regulators and we are and we may become subject to various legal proceedings, inquiries, investigations, and demand letters that arise in the course of our business. For example, we have received investigative subpoenas and other inquiries from various state agencies and attorneys general for documents and information pertaining to our business practices and policies, customer complaints, asset launches, certain ongoing litigation, and certain transfers of crypto assets. In addition, we have received investigative subpoenas and demand letters from various regulators for documents and information, including about certain customer programs, operations, and existing and intended future products, including our processes for listing assets, the classification of certain listed assets, our staking programs, and our stablecoin and yield-generating products. We intend to cooperate fully with such investigations. These examples are not exhaustive.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the Annual Report ). You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described in the Annual Report, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled Management s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Financial Statements and related notes. The risks and uncertainties described in the Annual Report are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of or that we deem immaterial may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any such risks occur, our business, operating results, financial condition, and future prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the three months ended June 30, 2026.
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
In October 2024, our board of directors authorized and approved a share repurchase program, which provided for the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of our outstanding Class A common stock without expiration. In October 2025, our board of directors (i) increased the aggregate repurchase authorization under the program from $1.0 billion to $2.0 billion and (ii) expanded the scope of the repurchases to include a portion of the aggregate principal amount of our then outstanding 2026 Convertible Notes, 2029 Convertible Notes, 2030 Convertible Notes, 2032 Convertible Notes, and both series of Senior Notes (collectively, the Notes ). In January 2026, our board of directors approved a $2.0 billion increase in the authorization of our previously announced repurchase program from $2.0 billion to $4.0 billion (as modified, the Repurchase Program ). Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market (including through trading plans intended to qualify under Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act), in privately negotiated transactions, in a tender offer, or by other methods in accordance with the applicable federal and state laws and regulations. The timing and amount of any repurchases will depend on market conditions and other considerations, and will be made at management s discretion. The Repurchase Program does not obligate us to repurchase any dollar amount or number of shares of our Class A
