Coinbase executives file Rule 10b5‑1 plans to sell up to 13.6 million shares worth about $2.2 billion

Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong, President Emilie Choi and director Frederick Ehrsam filed Rule 10b5‑1 trading plans covering 13,594,519 Class A shares valued at roughly $2.18‑$2.2 billion based on the October 29 close. Armstrong may sell up to 8,167,446 shares between Nov 16 2026 and Oct 22 2027, while Ehrsam and Choi have windows extending into mid‑2027. The filing was made during an open trading window and was disclosed alongside a Q3 revenue decline of 35% to $1.22 billion.

The plans could add supply of COIN shares if price targets are met, potentially pressuring the stock price. The company notes the plans are subject to high price thresholds, so immediate impact depends on future market levels.
