Coinbase is valued at $ 90 billion

Before the exchange was listed on the Nasdaq, Coinbase was valued at approximately $ 90 billion.

Last tradesweek was the last opportunity to buy Coinbase shares before the largest US cryptocurrency exchange goes public.

The shares started at $ 375, raising the stock exchange's capitalization to nearly $ 100 billion, and closed at around $ 350.

The FTX market valued Coinbase at $ 109 billion, more than 17% higher than the Nasdaq Private Market estimate.

In January, experts believed Coinbase could be valued at $ 75 billion.

In late February, the exchange applied for an initial public offering with a direct listing on the Nasdaq under the ticker COIN.

If everything goes according to plan, then after the IPO the mainChief Executive Brian Armstrong will receive nearly $3 billion in stock options, the equivalent of $1 million per working day, over the next 10 years, according to Bloomberg calculations.
