Coinbase was co-founded by Brian Armstrong and Fred Ehrsam in June 2012 as a cryptocurrency exchange and wallet platform, and participated in the Y Combinator Summer 2012 batch. Early backers included Andreessen Horowitz, which led a $25 million Series B in December 2013, with Union Square Ventures and Ribbit Capital also participating, bringing total funding raised to $31 million. In January 2015, it received a $75 million investment led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, with participation from the New York Stock Exchange, USAA, and several banks. Co-founder Fred Ehrsam resigned from his day-to-day role in January 2017 but remained on the board of directors. Coinbase became a public company on April 14, 2021 via a direct listing on Nasdaq, trading as Class A common stock under the ticker COIN, and operates as a remote-first company with no formal headquarters.

Coinbase offers consumer, institutional, and developer products including the Coinbase app, Prime, Custody, Wallet, Commerce, and Coinbase Developer Platform. It formed Coinbase Ventures in April 2018 to invest in blockchain and cryptocurrency-related companies, with a portfolio that includes Gitcoin, StarkWare, Fei Protocol, Matcha, Skew, BRD, Opyn and Immutable. Coinbase was formerly part of the Centre consortium alongside Circle and Bitmain, which launched the USD Coin (USDC) stablecoin, and continues to distribute USDC as an exchange partner. In February 2023, Coinbase launched Base, an Ethereum-focused layer-2 blockchain incubated inside Coinbase, built on the OP Stack in collaboration with Optimism.

Coinbase was charged by the U.S. SEC in June 2023 with allegedly operating its crypto asset trading platform as an unregistered national securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency, and with failing to register its staking-as-a-service program; the SEC dismissed its civil enforcement action in February 2025 via a joint stipulation, noting the dismissal did not reflect an assessment of the merits of the claims. Coinbase was included in the S&P 500 in May 2025. In May 2025, Coinbase entered an agreement to acquire Deribit for $700 million in cash and 10,997,881 shares of Class A common stock, closing the acquisition in August 2025 and expanding into global crypto derivatives spanning spot, futures, perpetuals, and options. Coinbase has been mentioned by 10,566 accounts, with 54,542 total mentions.
