- Coinbase Shares surged by over 24% in just one day.
- Federal judge dismissed a class-action lawsuit against the crypto exchange.
Today the U.S based cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase (COIN) shares soared by more than 24%, despite the Federal Reserve’s most recent hike in interest rates and statements from Fed Chair Jerome Powell about the Fed’s efforts in battling the high rate of inflation.
Further, on Wednesday, a U.S. judge dismissed the lawsuit filed by its clients. That alleged the cryptocurrency exchange was selling unregistered securities and had not registered as a broker-dealer. It might be another factor for the Coinbase price boost.
