In this week´s case we ask ourselves whether the Coinbase is being fuelled by Bitcoin or whether it is just hot air from the Altcoin hype? After all, there is a risk of the cryptocurrency market consolidating, with only a few winners remaining. From a technical analysis and RSI view, the US equity indices are currently trading at overbought levels.
Coinbase's revenue saw a significant boost in the first quarter, more than doubling year-over-year to reach $1.59 billion. This growth was largely driven by a surge in transactional revenue, which nearly tripled. Since Coinbase generates roughly two-thirds of its income from trading spreads, this suggests a significant increase in trading activity. While Coinbase has enjoyed a significant run-up this year, its current valuation raises concerns.
From a technical point of view, the RSI for both the S&P500 and the Nasdaq are floating in overbought territory.
