The U.S. election helped light the fire in a big way, with President-elect Donald Trump’s favorable stance on digital assets paving the favorable outlook.  It’s no secret that crypto is a volatile asset class, spooking many with a more conservative approach. Still, market participants can still obtain exposure through several stocks, a list that includes Robinhood Markets (HOOD – Free Report) and Coinbase (COIN – Free Report).Both companies facilitate crypto trading services, with their upcoming results likely to be positive thanks to higher inflows and trading fees. Let’s take a closer look at each for those seeking exposure to cryptocurrency.

 Robinhood’s easy-to-use platform lets investors trade a wide variety of assets, which includes cryptocurrencies. Analysts have taken a bullish stance on the company’s current year outlook, with the $0.74 per share estimate up nearly 430% over the last year.

Coinbase Maintains Favorable Policy Stance 
 Coinbase is the largest U.S. cryptocurrency exchange. The outlook for its current fiscal year has been back-and-forth over the last year but overall remains bullish, with the $5.39 per share expected up nearly 920% over the period and suggesting 1350% growth on easy comps.

Looking beyond Election Day 2024, we are prepared to work with either administration and believe the odds of pro-crypto legislation are better than ever.’As shown below, the company’s transaction revenues have overall been mixed relative to our consensus expectations over recent quarters. It’s reasonable to expect a strong print here in its next quarterly print given the current trading environment.
