On March 4, Coinbase stock reached its highest price in over two years, gaining 11% on the day to $229. Its shares continued to rise in after-hours trading by another 3.8%, reaching as high as $238, according to Google Finance.Coinbase closed March 4 at $229.15 but climbed to $237.88 in the four hours after the market close.

The surge came despite Coinbase suffering another round of issues that caused the platform not to load or incorrectly show a zero balance for some users.


Coinbase posted to X around half an hour before trading closed in New York that it issued a fix that also improved latency across the website.


“We are aware some users may experience increased latency across Coinbase.com and a few users may see intermittent zero balance,” the exchange posted about halfway into the United States trading day. “Rest assured, your funds are safe.”


The same issue plagued the exchange on Feb. 28, and on March 1, it quickly rectified an issue where user sends, withdrawals and deposits were failing.


Coinbase’s Feb. 28 outage saw Wall Street short-seller Andrew Left’s investment research firm Citron put out a call to short-sell Coinbase, claiming it was “one of the most compelling trades in the crypto market.”

United States-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) also saw their second-largest volume day at around $5.5 billion, with Farside Investors data showing Fidelity’s ETF had a record net inflows day of $404.6 million, surpassing outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF.
