Coinbase said on Tuesday it ​will cut about 700 ‌jobs, or about 14% of its global workforce, ​as part of a ​restructuring plan aimed at ⁠reducing costs and repositioning ​the business for the ​AI era.

Shares of the crypto exchange were up 4.66% in ​premarket trading.

The company ​expects to complete the exercise largely ‌in ⁠the second quarter of 2026.

Coinbase expects to incur about $50 million to $60 million ​in ​total ⁠restructuring expenses, mainly tied to employee ​severance and other ​termination ⁠benefits, with most of the charges to be ⁠recognized ​in the second ​quarter.
