📰 Coinbase CEO Drops Out of World’s 500 Richest as Crypto Market Weakens
February 11, 2026
Coinbase Global Inc. CEO Brian Armstrong has fallen out of the world’s 500 richest people after a sharp decline in cryptocurrency markets reduced his net worth by more than half.
According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Armstrong’s fortune has dropped by over $10 billion since peaking at $17.7 billion in July 2025.
The latest decline followed JPMorgan cutting its Coinbase price target by 27%, citing:
Continued weakness in crypto prices
Lower trading volumes
Slower-than-expected stablecoin growth
The drop highlights mounting pressure on crypto-linked equities as investor participation declines and market momentum cools.
Market Impact:
Increased pressure on crypto exchange stocks
Weak sentiment across digital asset markets
Heightened volatility in $BTC and major altcoins
Crypto wealth remains highly sensitive to price cycles, reinforcing how rapidly valuations can shift during market downturns.
