M&A activity and U.S. partnerships as Coinbase expands post-reincorporation

Coinbase completed its reincorporation from Delaware to Texas on December 15, 2025, shifting its legal jurisdiction while maintaining business operations and shareholder rights. The company secured clearance from the Competition Commission of India to acquire a minority, non-controlling stake in DCX Global Ltd, the parent of CoinDCX, broadening its reach in South Asia and the Middle East. Coinbase also plans to roll out new products such as prediction markets and tokenized equities, and has joined a U.S. 'Tech Force' initiative to provide technical talent to federal agencies.

Bearish momentum persists as sellers dominate below resistance

Momentum signals remain bearish for COIN: the daily MACD gives a strong sell, and the ADX is at a weak 18.44, indicating limited trend strength but persistent downside momentum. The RSI at 38.28 and Stochastic RSI at 11.85 are oversold; the CCI and BBP (–9.09) similarly reflect sellers in control. Awesome Oscillator also confirms this bearish bias on higher timeframes. Multiple short-term and intraday indicators point to dominance by sellers without significant divergence among oscillators. Resistance is concentrated at $278 – $283, while the current price is testing support near today's low.

Sideways trade outlook as rebound odds remain scant

For the next five sessions, COIN is expected to trade within the $220 to $260 range, reflecting its typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of sustained upward movement is low, with less than a 20% chance of a meaningful rebound. The base case anticipates sideways movement within the $220 – $260 band, while a close above $278 could open a path toward $283. If the price breaks below $220, a further decline toward multi-month lows appears likely.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, Traders Union expert, sees COIN showing clear bearish momentum but remains constructive due to its recent regulatory and expansion developments. He notes that while sellers dominate now, Coinbase’s moves in jurisdiction, new products, and global partnerships signal long-term potential. The analyst believes near-term price action is bounded between $220 and $260, with low odds for a break higher unless $278 is regained. Still, the recent growth steps keep COIN on his watchlist. "If Coinbase leverages its global initiatives and market volatility recedes, I see room for a bullish shift in the sessions ahead."

Last time, analysts noted that Coinbase Global, Inc. continued to trade below key moving averages with persistent bearish momentum, as technical indicators like RSI and Stoch RSI signaled oversold conditions and the MACD remained in negative territory. The price faced overhead resistance with limited support, increasing the likelihood of further declines or sideways consolidation unless a sustained move above resistance materializes.
