NoBitchNiggas (@NoBitchNiggas4) reported@TXWestCapital @CryptoLifer33 Blackrock owns the most coinbase stock (usdc is coinbase’s coin) so don’t be shocked if USDT goes through some ****. That’ll probably be the bottom of a bear market typa fud tho

Bitcoin1776 (@bitcoin1776) reported@TylerDurden Set your email to 2FA / Google Auth - and SIM lock phone number. Scattered Spider (Big FBI Case / 60 minutes) got me - I got lucky, but their bots grabbed my drop box / Google Drive / one drive in 15 minutes - and told Coinbase I changed my name and closed my account - and Coinbase was like that’s very normal, approved! Without question lol Fortunately I busted them hard - was lead witness in the case :) Grabbed all their IP addresses , grabbed the employee badge number at T mobile who helped them (who was at T Mobile Isreal). The hacker was in Florida. 2FA Google Auth your email, then it’s near impossible to hack. And all the drives / drop box stuff they downloaded was fake , empty. I was lucky on that. Login email & storage email are different.

Osouzai (@TUNGVANPHAN2) reportedMidday Brief | Key Developments for May 19 7:00–12:00 Keywords: Kelp, Coinbase, American Bitcoin, Echo Protocol AMD CEO Lisa Su says 5 billion people will use AI daily within five years, calling AI “everywhere.” South Korea’s KOSPI plunges 4.0% intraday to 7,215.26. Kelp says coordinated DeFi liquidations against the attacker have made major progress in rsETH recovery. Coinbase Bitcoin discount widens, signaling continued weak U.S. spot buying demand. Echo Protocol confirms exploit and suspends all cross-chain transactions. American Bitcoin holdings surpass 7,500 BTC, making it the 15th largest public Bitcoin treasury company. Binance will suspend GLMR deposits and withdrawals from May 20 at 12:00 to support the Moonbeam network upgrade. #btc

Mark Nathaniel (@r__onyy) reported@balltalkuu We understand your frustration and we’re sorry for the experience you’ve had. Coinbase does not take customer funds, and we’d like to review what happened with your account or transaction. Please send us a DM with more details so our support team can investigate this further.

Ron (@ohmehgo) reported@oxidexe @base Why and how do they shut down the account? wtf. I buy on Coinbase as well.

₿rotied Plebtard (@btplebt) reported@boneGPT @PhinTotten No they absolutely do. This was a templated macro meaning key details are still entered manually by a human (DEI hire if U.S.-based but more than likely third world call center slave given it’s customer-facing and we know Coinbase). I review a lot of Coinbase Support communications regularly and they are mindblowingly incompetent and unprofessional. The experience their paid “premier” membership Coinbase One subscriber, CC holder and high value client (business account) @bh30317 has gone through would shock you but it’s normative for Conbase, they truly act like they hate their customers now The constant clip of indiscriminate mass layoffs hasn’t helped their support performance either, each time it happens the ball is dropped when something is internally escalated (have had this confirmed by multiple people still there)

Coco (@CocoBunni) reported@73559e0b85c2403 A receipt from Coinbase and a wallet badge that got one account closed, you've already done more investigative work than most victims. Attorneys pass you off because $1,900 doesn't meet their threshold, not because your case lacks merit. @SecureTrace_Lab traced my funds when legal channels dismissed my loss, mapped the destination wallet, and recovered a solid chunk I'd been told was too small to pursue. You've got the receipt and you got one account shut down. That means the trail is real and the next account is traceable.

Elton (@eltoniselton) reported@jimbo_evans @AlliumLabs imo I don’t think NTM USDH rev is the right anchor. Coinbase is buying USDH brand to make USDH NTM go away the relevant anchor is pre-deal threat value: $102M supply at 4.25% = $4.3M gross annualized yield, or $45M at Circle’s gross rev multiple. Essentially it’s what Native gave up / what Coinbase neutralized Side note, I think one silly mistake here is the low case value where gross rev multiple is applied to net rev. That was an error addressed but the AI failed to apply it and we failed to catch it in the output. We also didn't use it in calculating weighted price so it didn't have any affect. Overall I think the output still needs work and an expert to verify details, but I think the benefit of getting these quick valuations generated within an hour has merit. At least as a starting point or gut check. It also gets smarter every time we run it. Appreciate your input!

Cryptic Bee🐝 (@CrypticBeee) reportedI could really help stoke some delusions once I have a megaphone. For example, when "binance and coinbase" are dumping it just means users from those exchanges are dumping. Folk blame CZ, but he has no record of selling. Hes unemployed. Liquidity hunts are all our heads smashing together, not some cooperate entity hunting you personally. Stuff like that.

Nikolaus | Quantus (@n13) reportedThis stuff needs to end. IDK why you do it, maybe it's for the reasons stated, you just need to do better. As it is, I can't trust Coinbase I love the service, it's really excellent, which is why I have used it for many years. But I have backup exchanges and also I never keep any currency on Coinbase because I know they will shut down any account on a whim. Many such reports online. So I go in, trade, and get out, I never leave anything there. Trust is important in financial services, and from a customer perspective it sure looks like Coinbase prioritizes governments over users. And in this case, prioritizes catching scammers over users This is the wrong priority - you got to be on your customer's side. Obviously comply with laws and catch scammers, but always do it keeping in mind the customers are who's actually paying your salary.

Christophorus (@christophorusan) reportedThe question is no longer whether institutions come onchain. It is which design wins when they do. Last week: CME and ICE lobbied Washington to regulate hyperliquid:native Coinbase became Hyperliquid's USDC treasury manager. Two reactions to one fact. Blockchain produces better products. Fewer middlemen. Code that doesn't change after it ships. The receipts from this year: KelpDAO got hacked in April. Aave lost $200M. ethereum:0x58d97b57bb95320f9a05dc918aef65434969c2b2 lost $1M. Same hack, different design. October 11 liquidation event. $19B wiped across the market. Lighter went down for hours. dYdX was offline for eight. Hyperliquid kept running. Apollo signed for 48 months of MORPHO. BlackRock is live across eight chains. 24/7. Verifiable. Permissionless. Self-custodied. All of finance, onchain. That's worth backing.

Auron (@auronxbt) reported@AEON_Community x402 - originally developed by @coinbase - turns HTTP payments into a native internet primitive. In theory: an AI agent hits a paywall, pays instantly, receives data/service automatically. No invoices. No card network. No human checkout flow.

JCYBER RECOVERY FIRM (@Jcyber_HQ) reported@crand2056 I can help recover the money stolen from your Coinbase account by the pig butchering ring. These unauthorized asset transfers leave permanent blockchain signatures that I can exploit to map the destination wallets. Share your evidence and TxID to begin recovery.

Loxx (@LoxxBtc) reported@ixg313 When i say:“we need buyers to step in“ it might be worth to watch coinbase premium or anything else that monitors spot buys. What else did you not understand? Happy to help you to get educated.
