I'm a buyer at this point. We'll see how earnings turn out tomorrow, but no matter how bad the macro environment, I think $COIN at 7 P/E is a good buy long-term.

Coinbase stock lost over 75% value

Re: Coinbase stock lost over 75% value
#52I’m particularly sad to see Cloudflare’s stock having plummeted. Out of all the tech companies that IPO’d in the past few years, Cloudflare is one that the most potential to excel long term. Developer sentiment towards Cloudflare is comparable to Apple fanboys of the previous decade, and their products are legitimately good, backed with tangible assets (datacenters). They also have consistent growth quarter over quar…
Lots of people who figured they could borrow against their rapidly skyrocketing holdings that are all receiving margin calls at the same time.

#53Cloudflare is down 71% in that same period. Zoom is down 60%. Speculative pandemic tech darlings are no longer darlings and are being hammered across the board. It's going to be a rough time for anyone who had high hopes for their equity compensation.
But everybody assumes a risk level they’re comfortable with, this works for me.
Re: Coinbase stock lost over 75% value
#54So I'm a crypto non-believer. I see it as the ultimate solution looking for a problem. But that doesn't apply to Coinbase because, at its core, Coinbase should be a transactional business that is a proxy for the size of the crypto market (or, more specifically, the crypto trading volume). I don't know enough about the financials of Coinbase however. It could be they have risks unrelated to their transaction business.…

Same. I've also bought Affirm, Shopify, Netflix, Peloton and Roblox in addition to Coinbase since they've all dropped ~70-90% in the last 6 months. I agree they were overvalued, but we seem to be in overreaction territory now. Even if we haven't seen the bottom yet, I think we'll see a lot of upside in these over the next 2-5 years.

Same -- there are actually a bunch of tech stocks that are think are similarly a good bet right now, for example $NET (Cloudflare). Any other things that look like good buys under the market crush?
Bet on the long-term for the segment and their position. Their operating condition is sound and they have plenty of cash. Future returns were pulled forward during the pandemic era for things like remoting xyz (eg Zoom is suffering from that beating now as well). Let the bearishness rip these stocks up (a hard swing back from the insane bullishness previously, which is typical of speculators), take advantage of the stupidity that will abound in the selling down (exactly as it did on the way up).
This is when you start looking at buying opportunities, to generate the returns later (even if it takes years). You take advantage of the big runs to sell to the fools chasing stocks like Teladoc at 6x-7x the present valuation. Buy sound companies with good growth horizons, bet longer-term in your calculating, buy cheaply enough to have a great moat / margin of safety. Rinse and repeat over time. It's all about taking advantage of the rampant irrationality, either direction.
Just don't make the mistake of significantly overpaying and the odds are tilted that much more in your favor.
