The rally is being driven by investor optimism around U.S. stablecoin legislation and Coinbase’s recent regulatory breakthrough in Europe. The company became the first U.S. crypto exchange to receive MiCA authorization in Luxembourg, allowing it to operate across all 27 EU member states. This, combined with the momentum from the GENIUS Act’s passage in the U.S. Senate, has attracted significant institutional inflows.
