Actual revenue declined from $1.781B in 2025/Q4 to $1.220B in 2026/Q2, while analyst estimates for 2026/Q3 sit at $1.167B and 2026/Q4 at $1.342B—aligning with the post's claim that the $1.167B Q3 estimate for $COIN is too conservative given recent run rate trends and a likely upward repricing.

The image supports the post's claim that the wallet is climbing the charts, though it currently sits at #183 rather than the top 200 threshold suggested in the commentary.

CLARITY fails to advance.

 basically says, “fine, we’ll move forward anyway.” Then the SEC follows by opening the door to innovation through regulatory exemptions rather than waiting on Congress.
