Sure they have valid points but I am more sure that if the price of Bitcoin and other major cryptos kept moving on up this would not be a thing.

This is the key problem with crypto only exchanges.

At some point (probably further down in share price) they will become a target for existing exchanges looking to diversify - ICE, CME



CME Group has a market cap of about $70Bn. I would say that COIN looks like a good acqusition target in the 5-10Bn range. I could see that as a good exit strategy for a company like coinbase.

Unfortunately COIN is currently worth 15, and was worth around 70Bn last year.
