Analysts are predicting a decline in spot trading volume for Coinbase in the third quarter, which will negatively impact the exchange's revenue. The slowdown is attributed to a lack of catalysts for the crypto market and regulatory uncertainty leading up to the presidential election. Estimates suggest that Coinbase's revenue will decline by about 13% in Q3. The decline in trading volume is not unique to Coinbase but is seen throughout the industry. Regulatory uncertainty and the upcoming election are believed to be the main drivers behind the lower volumes. Additionally, J.P. Morgan expects lower revenue from Coinbase's staking services, citing the underperformance of ether in Q3. Despite these challenges, subscription and services revenue experienced growth in the second quarter. Overall, analysts have mixed ratings for Coinbase and have adjusted their price targets accordingly.
