Coinbase Lays Off Around 1,100 Employees
The exchange is reducing its workforce by roughly 18%. CEO Brian Armstrong admits the company "grew too quickly."

Coinbase Global (COIN) is laying off around 1,100 employees as part of a cost cutting plan, the company said in a filing on Tuesday. Coinbase initially said in May it was paring back its hiring plans and then later said it would rescind new job offers.
The latest plan involves cutting the workforce by around 18% as of June 10, after which it will have around 5,000 total employees as of the end of the current quarter, the company said, adding that it expects the plan to be executed by the end of the second quarter. Coinbase estimated it would incur $40 million to $45 million in total restructuring expenses.
On Tuesday morning, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong published a note that was shared with all employees.
"We appear to be entering a recession after a 10+ year economic boom," Armstrong stated, before alluding to the potential of another crypto winter.
The note concedes that the company "grew too quickly" in the cryptocurrency bull market, scaling from 1,250 employees at the start of 2021.
Outgoing Coinbase employees received the news in their personal email addresses after access was cut from Coinbase systems, according to the note.
Coinbase shares are down almost 80% this year as the sharp decline in crypto prices has hurt the exchange's transaction volumes. On Tuesday morning, shares of Coinbase rose about 1% in pre-market trading after the layoff news was announced. However, in regular trading shares were down about 3% to $50.40.
In response to the announcement, Mizuho lowered its 2022 revenue estimates for Coinbase and reduced its price target from $60 to $45. It said it was concerned cutting workers could hurt efforts to find new revenue streams, potentially leading to a pricing war with rivals as competition rises.
Coinbase is the latest in a slew of crypto companies to announce job cuts. On Monday, lending platform BlockFi reduced its headcount by 20% while crypto exchange Crypto.com slashed over 400 jobs. Prior to that, the Winklevoss-led exchange and custodian Gemini announced it was cutting 10% of its workforce, and Middle Eastern exchange Rain said it was cutting dozens of jobs.
The cryptocurrency market is enduring its deepest correction for more than two years, with bitcoin trading at $22,150, 68% lower than its all-time high of about $69,000 reached last November.

Coinbase Global(COIN)周二在一份文件中表示,作为削减成本计划的一部分,该公司正在裁减约1100名员工。Coinbase最初在5月份表示,它正在缩减其招聘计划,后来又表示将取消新的工作机会。
该公司表示,最新的计划涉及到从6月10日起削减约18%的员工,此后,截至本季度末,该公司将拥有约5000名员工,并补充说,它预计该计划将在第二季度末执行。Coinbase估计它将产生4000万至4500万美元的总重组费用。
周二上午,Coinbase首席执行官布莱恩-阿姆斯特朗发表了一份说明,并与所有员工分享。
"在10多年的经济繁荣之后,我们似乎正在进入经济衰退,"阿姆斯特朗说,然后暗指另一个加密货币冬天的可能性。
该说明承认,该公司在加密货币牛市中 "增长过快",在2021年年初从1250名员工开始扩大规模。
根据该说明,即将离职的Coinbase员工在Coinbase系统的访问被切断后,在其个人邮箱中收到了这一消息。
由于加密货币价格的急剧下降损害了交易所的交易量,Coinbase的股价今年以来下跌了近80%。周二上午,裁员消息公布后,Coinbase的股价在盘前交易中上涨了约1%。然而,在常规交易中,股价下跌约3%,至50.40美元。
作为对这一消息的回应,瑞穗银行降低了对Coinbase的2022年收入预期,并将其目标价格从60美元降至45美元。它表示,它担心裁员可能会损害寻找新收入来源的努力,随着竞争的加剧,可能会导致与对手的价格战。
Coinbase是一连串宣布裁员的加密货币公司中的最新一员。周一,借贷平台BlockFi裁员20%,而加密货币交易所Crypto.com削减了400多个职位。在此之前,温克艾沃斯领导的交易所和托管机构Gemini宣布裁员10%,中东交易所Rain表示正在裁减几十个职位。
加密货币市场正在经受两年多来最深的调整,比特币交易价格为22,150美元,比去年11月达到的约69,000美元的历史高点低68%。
