(Reuters) – Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) Global Inc reported a 35% drop in revenue in the first quarter on Tuesday as extreme market volatility drove investors to scale back their exposure to risky assets, crimping trading volumes.
Total revenue of the cryptocurrency exchange operator fell to $1.17 billion in the three months ended March 31 from $1.80 billion a year earlier.
