The Systems Update Event = Identity Change.
$COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) hosted their event recently:
The big takeaway for me is it’s not a Crypto Exchange anymore. It is so much more. Stocks, Prediction Markets, Stable Coins, Stable Coins as a Service, Tokenization, and everything tied back to Base.
It feels like $COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) is chasing $HOOD ( ▲ 3.58% ) in terms of matching their services. I would love to see $COIN ( ▲ 8.67% ) focus on all things crypto, like their stablecoin service, perpetual futures, even, and then go deeper on the institutional focus. Become the institutional winner in crypto. Even become the institutional winner for prediction markets onboarding the hedge funds, long only’s and large investors into this new market to provide more liquidity and ability to predict at scale.
Instead, it feels like $COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) is chasing and following Robinhood, but also trying to maintain their crypto differentiator. There is a lot of product roll out for $COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) which is exciting to see, but for someone who left $COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) entirely for $HOOD ( ▲ 3.58% ), I am not sure on the retail side what is bringing me back at this point.
I like both companies long term, but I would rather double or triple down on $HOOD ( ▲ 3.58% ) vs. building a $COIN ( ▲ 2.48% ) position, unless the institutional side of Coinbase becomes their main focus and revenue stream long term.
