Blockchain analytics firm Arkham has uncovered astonishing details about Coinbase’s cryptocurrency holdings. The revelations not only shed light on the immense Bitcoin holdings of over one million BTC valued at more than $25 billion but also highlight Coinbase’s extensive portfolio across various cryptocurrencies.

Let’s dig into the findings!

The Numbers Game

With a treasure trove of 36 million BTC deposits and holding addresses and a cold wallet containing roughly 10,000 BTC, Coinbase’s impact on the cryptocurrency market is monumental. This places the exchange in possession of nearly 5% of all existing Bitcoins, aligning it closely with the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Here’s a look:

• 222,832,000 USD Coin (USDC), worth $222.83 million
• 921,875 Binance Coin (BNB), valued at $194.11 million
• 854,137,000 The Graph (GRT) tokens, worth $74.62 million
• 12,100,000 Uniswap (UNI) tokens worth $51.18 million
• 162,458,000 0x Protocol (ZRX) tokens, valued at $30.28 million

The Blackrock Connection

While the crypto community was abuzz with Coinbase’s towering presence, a tweet joked that asset management giant BlackRock would be keen to wrest this milestone from Coinbase.

But the twist in the tale? Coinbase is already a custodian for BlackRock, a partnership both companies announced months ago. Now, you can have a bigger picture of the power dynamics within the crypto space.

It’s worth noting that Coinbase is currently facing a lawsuit from the US SEC for alleged violations of custody rules and other charges. Should the SEC approve BlackRock’s ETF filing, it could lead to a swift resolution of the ongoing lawsuit.
