Coinbase, Exchanges

Does Coinbase Have an Email?

Coinbase is a digital currency exchange headquartered in San Francisco, California. They broker exchanges of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Litecoin, Tezos, and many others, with fiat currencies in approximately 32 countries.

Coinbase also offers custody services for institutional investors.

Coinbase has been a controversial company since its inception. In 2013, the US government shut down Silk Road, an online marketplace that allowed users to buy and sell illegal drugs with Bitcoin. The government then auctioned off the seized Bitcoin, and Coinbase allowed its users to claim their share of the auction proceeds. In 2014, Mt.

Gox, then the largest Bitcoin exchange, filed for bankruptcy after losing 850,000 Bitcoins to hackers. Coinbase was one of the few exchanges that did not lose any customer funds in the Mt. Gox hack.

NOTE: This warning note is to inform users that Coinbase does not have an email address for direct contact. If you have any questions or concerns, you should use the support page on their website or contact Customer Support directly by phone. Do not attempt to send an email to Coinbase as it will not reach the intended recipient.

In 2015, the New York State Department of Financial Services (DFS) issued a BitLicense to Coinbase, making it the first US-regulated Bitcoin exchange. The DFS required Coinbase to implement significant anti-money laundering measures, including Know Your Customer (KYC) checks for all customers and a reporting system for suspicious activity.

In 2016, Coinbase became the first licensed US cryptocurrency exchange to offer Ether trading. In 2017, Coinbase added support for Bitcoin Cash – a fork of Bitcoin – and in 2018 they added support for Ethereum Classic – another fork of Ethereum.

Coinbase has been accused of being slow to add new coins and tokens to its platform. For example, it took Coinbase nearly four months to add Bitcoin Cash after the fork occurred in August 2017.

However, Coinbase has recently been adding new coins and tokens at a much faster pace. In the last month alone, they have added support for five new cryptocurrencies: 0x (ZRX), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Stellar Lumens (XLM), Zcash (ZEC), and Augur (REP).

Coinbase does have an email address ([email protected]) that customers can use to contact customer support. However, they do not have a public-facing email address that can be used by anyone wishing to send them an email.
