The company plans to set aside 10% of its quarterly income for investment in a variety of cryptocurrencies. The investment policy estimates that at least $500 million cash can be set aside for the acquisition of viable asset classes that are picked by the investment strategist. Coinbase wishes to lead by example and make cryptocurrency more common investment option for institutional investors.
Coinbase has decided to invest a sizeable portion of its profit into cryptocurrencies. The exchange enterprise wishes to hold selected altcoins and tokens as a way to expand its investment portfolio. During its recent press briefing, the company management pointed out the potential candidates that are going to become part of the investment options at Coinbase.
As per the briefing, Coinbase is going to become the first publically traded enterprise in the United States to hold tokens like Ethereum. There are also several other PoS altcoins and DeFi tokens that are going to become part of the crypto investment pool for Coinbase. Bitcoin is also going to be a major part of the holding. Coinbase plans to deploy the virtual assets through the dollar and cost averaging method over many years.
