On Nov. 11, Coinbase Inc. (COIN) saw its shares surge by over 20%, exceeding the $300 mark for the first time since the year 2021.

Following the presidential election victory of Donald Trump, crypto stocks in the United States have experienced remarkable gains, with the general consensus being that the outcome will benefit the sector, as reported by Cointelegraph Research.

“Coinbase stands to gain from the election results as the company has contended with substantial regulatory scrutiny from the SEC. The company is actively challenging the agency’s position in court,” noted Michale Miller, an equity analyst at Morningstar Inc., in a research update on Nov. 7.

Miller further indicated that the Trump administration’s anticipated support for the crypto industry implies reduced regulatory pressure on Coinbase’s staking operations, as well as a potential boost to cryptocurrency values overall.
