Coinbase announced this week that its user base had crossed the 650,000 mark.

It seems the young company is on a roll, as it recently managed to secure $25m in a round of funding led by Andreessen Horowitz.

Coinbase

has grown more than 20-fold over the past nine months. The service started back in 2013 with just 30,000 accounts but by August it had gained over 200,000.

The number of Coinbase transactions is growing even faster – up more than twenty-fold since January.

User demographics

The company also shared some interesting data on its demographics. The vast majority of Coinbase users are aged 25 to 34.

They account for 49.7% of all Coinbase users, while the 35- to 44-year-olds rank second with a 16.9% share. Meanwhile, the 18 to 24 age range is going strong with a 15.8% share.

Older age groups are in single-digit territory, with 17.6% of all Coinbase users being over the age of 45.

The vast majority of Coinbase users are male. As of November, only 12.5% are women, while 87.5% are men. Still, the situation is improving, as women accounted for only 5.8% back in October.

Future expansion

Following Andreessen Horowitz's announcement last week, Coinbase said it would use the funding to solidify its position as the fastest-growing bitcoin service in the US.

It will also expand its referral programme and continue to promote the mainstream adoption of bitcoin.

Coinbase is averaging about 10,000 new user sign-ups per day, so at this rate it could hit the one million user mark by February. However, with the holiday season setting in, the company's next milestone might roll over into March.

Pudgy Penguins: A New Blueprint for Tokenized Culture

Pudgy Title Image

Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.

Lo que debes saber:

Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.

The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.

BTC, ETH, SOL move higher as markets eye Fed, Mag 7 earnings and weaker dollar

A matador faces a bull

Crypto prices steadied as traders looked past short-term volatility with positioning shifting to the Fed, megacap earnings and a weakening dollar.

Lo que debes saber:

  • Bitcoin hovered just below $89,000 in Asian trading, posting modest gains in a narrow range as traders awaited a key Federal Reserve decision.
  • A weaker U.S. dollar and record-setting global equity markets, led by technology shares and AI optimism, have supported risk assets but crypto has lagged metals like gold and silver.
  • Analysts say bitcoin's rebound from the $86,000–$87,000 zone reflects reduced leverage and short-term stabilization rather than strong momentum as markets brace for Fed guidance and major tech earnings.
