Coinbase has increased its investment in Indian cryptocurrency exchange CoinDCX, pushing its valuation to $2.45 billion post-money.
The deal provides fresh capital to CoinDCX and underscores Coinbase's conviction in the Indian crypto market, where it aims to expand its presence. Coinbase has been an investor in CoinDCX since its Series D round in 2022, which valued the company at over $2 billion.
Coinbase claimed that “India and the Middle East are set to play a big role in the future of crypto.” The exchange said that the region is home to 1.4 billion people, and according to a late August estimate, India alone is home to about 115 million crypto users.
The move signals a strategic effort by Coinbase to solidify its foothold in India by backing a dominant local player. For CoinDCX, the continued partnership with a major U.S. exchange provides not just capital, but also validation and strategic alignment as it navigates the evolving regulatory landscape in India.
