Asset: Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN)

Timeframe: Weekly

Vehicle Role: Institutional Proxy / Crypto Infrastructure Equity

Fund Mandate: Long-only, cycle-based accumulation and rotation

Issue: December 19, 2025


1. Market Regime & Quant Score


Weighted Quant Components (Weekly):

  • MAs alignment: 78% (price retracing toward rising long-term structure)

  • DMI trend strength: 65% (trend weakening after rejection at resistance)

  • Ichimoku cloud positioning: 71% (price below cloud, no bullish re-entry yet)

  • Momentum (MACD / Stochastic): 69% (bearish momentum, oversold developing)

  • Structure & trend integrity: 74% (higher-lows intact, corrective leg in progress)

  • Volume/distribution: 70% (distribution confirmed near the sell zone)

  • RSI offset (neutral-to-oversold): -8%


Market Regime: Corrective within primary bull structure

Total Quant Regime Score: 74 / 100


Interpretation: COIN has completed a distribution phase at significant resistance and is now undergoing a controlled corrective reset into structural demand. Trend integrity remains intact, but price has not yet reached the optimal asymmetric entry point.



2. MCC Portfolio Context


COIN functions as a regulated institutional proxy for crypto adoption and exchange infrastructure, offering equity-based exposure to digital asset cycles without direct token risk.

  • Role in MCC: Infrastructure leverage to crypto adoption and ETF-driven volume growth

  • Risk profile: High beta relative to equities, lower volatility than pure crypto

  • When exposure is increased: Deep retracements into structural buy zones during crypto drawdowns

  • When exposure is reduced: Distribution into resistance during euphoric phases

  • Portfolio interaction: Complements BTC/ETH core and levered crypto ETFs while maintaining equity liquidity



3. BUY SCENARIO — Long-Only Accumulation


Buy Zone 1 (Primary): $198 – $165

  • Structural confluence with rising trendline and prior demand

  • MCC action: Staged accumulation only on stabilization


Buy Zone 2 (Secondary / Deep Reset): $145 – $135

  • Maximum asymmetry zone aligned with broader crypto risk-off events

  • MCC action: Opportunistic deployment using reserves

7. MCC Quant Rules Applied

  • Trade with a cycle structure, not headlines

  • Treat COIN as infrastructure exposure, not momentum equity

  • Accumulate liquidity-driven fear, not breakouts

  • Trim into institutional distribution zones

  • Rotate gains into private credit, gold, or reserves

  • Preserve optionality via yield-bearing cash

  • Maintain long-only discipline with asymmetric patience


(Fully aligned with MCC’s Three-Engine Investment Framework) MCC– Strategic Investment Frame…



8. Strategic Interpretation (MCC Risk Mandate)

  • Current stance: Standby; price is mid-correction, not yet asymmetric

  • If price stabilizes in Buy Zone 1: Begin staged accumulation

  • If price accelerates lower: Deploy reserves defensively in Buy Zone 2

  • If price reclaims resistance: Trim and rotate; no chasing


No forecasts. If–then execution only.




9. One-Liner

MCC long-only view on #COIN: corrective regime within primary bull structure, with disciplined accumulation planned into defined demand zones and risk rotated per a 74/100 quant score.
