3 prediction markets price this story:
- Above 9 million — the market puts it at 4%, closing 28 Nov 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Coinbase Global Inc. reports more than 9 million monthly transacting users during the first quarter of 2027. Otherwise, it resolves to No. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking it applies to any time before Q1 2027 rather than specifically within that quarter.
- Coinbase — the market puts it at 52%, closing 15 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Coinbase airs a qualifying ad during the 2027 Super Bowl broadcast; otherwise, it is No. Readers often mistake the linked news story about the bank charter for the resolution condition, but only the Super Bowl advertisement matters.
- Above 7 million — the market puts it at 76%, closing 12 May 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Coinbase Global Inc. reports more than 7 million monthly transacting users during fiscal year 2026. It resolves to No if the reported number is 7 million or fewer. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking it applies to any quarter in 2026 rather than the entire fiscal year.
