Coinbase is reportedly in advanced talks to acquire BVNK, a stablecoin infrastructure startup. Bloomberg's report indicates the deal is undergoing due diligence, potentially valuing BVNK around $2 billion. This move signals Coinbase's ambition to strengthen its position in the stablecoin market, offering wider access and seamless integration for users. The acquisition of BVNK would provide Coinbase with enhanced capabilities in cross-border payments and institutional services, leveraging BVNK's technology to bridge traditional finance and the crypto world. An anonymous source suggests the acquisition could finalize by the end of the year or early next year. Expanding into stablecoins can provide better on and off ramp user experience for Coinbase users. ```
