  • Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN) was founded in June 2012 with the sole purpose of facilitating the buying and selling of Bitcoin. But over the next 12 years, the digital asset brokerage and exchange operator has expanded into a broader business by offering more services.

The article from MSN Money discusses the potential for Coinbase, a leading cryptocurrency exchange, to become the first trillion-dollar cryptocurrency stock by 2040.

The article concludes by suggesting that while the path to a trillion-dollar valuation is fraught with uncertainties, Coinbase's strategic moves and the overall growth trajectory of the crypto market could make this ambitious goal plausible.
