A recent move higher in crypto has caught many eyes, with investors clamoring for exposure following the bullish move. The U.S. election helped light the fire in a big way, with President-elect Donald Trump’s favorable stance on digital assets paving the favorable outlook.

It’s no secret that crypto is a volatile asset class, spooking many with a more conservative approach. Still, market participants can still obtain exposure through several stocks, a list that includes Robinhood Markets HOOD and Coinbase COIN.

Both companies facilitate crypto trading services, with their upcoming results likely to be positive thanks to higher inflows and trading fees. Let’s take a closer look at each for those seeking exposure to cryptocurrency.

Robinhood Crypto Revenues Soar

 

Robinhood’s easy-to-use platform lets investors trade a wide variety of assets, which includes cryptocurrencies. Analysts have taken a bullish stance on the company’s current year outlook, with the $0.74 per share estimate up nearly 430% over the last year.

The company recently delivered its Q3 results, which were primarily positive overall despite falling short of both EPS and sales expectations. EPS grew to $0.17 per share, whereas sales of $637 million grew 36% year-over-year.

The $637 million sales print reflected the company’s second-highest-ever total, with YTD net deposits of $34 billion also exceeding prior full-year records. Below is a chart illustrating the company’s sales on a quarterly basis.

Notably, cryptocurrencies revenues of $61 million blasted 165% higher year-over-year to $61 million. And crypto notional trading volumes of $14.4 billion melted 112% year-over-year.

As shown by the year-over-year growth comps, the company’s crypto trading has rebounded in a big way. The company has overall struggled to exceed our consensus expectations concerning crypto-based revenues in recent periods, as shown below.

Coinbase Maintains Favorable Policy Stance

 

Coinbase is the largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange. The outlook for its current fiscal year has been back-and-forth over the last year but overall remains bullish, with the $5.39 per share expected up nearly 920% over the period and suggesting 1350% growth on easy comps.

The company delivered a positive message concerning crypto policy following its latest set of quarterly results, stating:

‘We continue to be a trusted partner to policymakers and organizations like Fairshake — one of the largest non-partisan PACs — and StandWithCrypto — an independent grassroots advocacy group with approximately 1.8 million crypto advocates. Looking beyond Election Day 2024, we are prepared to work with either administration and believe the odds of pro-crypto legislation are better than ever.’
