Coinbase Global Inc ( COIN ) shares are trading higher Thursday amid a rise in Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) prices.

What To Know: The broader crypto space got a boost from increased demand following the approval of spot bitcoin ETFs in January, but the ETFs reportedly saw their largest single-day outflows on Monday as Bitcoin fell from its highs and sparked a selloff in several crypto-related stocks.

Bitcoin prices are bouncing back Thursday following dovish comments from the Federal Reserve. Bitcoin was up approximately 5% over a 24-hour period trading around $67,104 at the time of writing.

Coinbase is faring better than other crypto-linked stocks this week, likely due to the increased volatility of crypto assets. As a crypto exchange, the company benefits from volatility in crypto as increased price movement often drives more trading activity on the platform.

Coinbase reported strong fourth-quarter financial results last month as transaction revenues jumped 83% quarter-over-quarter, primarily driven by higher volatility and crypto asset prices. Coinbase is not due to report earnings again until early May. Analysts currently expect the company to report earnings of 48 cents per share on revenue of $1.104 billion, according to estimates from Benzinga Pro.
