How Coinbase shareholders earn a return
Without a dividend, Coinbase shareholders earn a return only through changes in the share price, which they collect when they sell.
A company that pays no dividend usually reinvests its earnings in the business, buys back its own shares, or both. Only Coinbase's board of directors can declare a dividend; if it does, the payment will appear on this page the day it shows up in SmarterDividends' payment records.
