Does Coinbase Support Bech32?

NOTE: WARNING: Coinbase does not currently support Bech32 addresses. Bech32 is a newer address format that is not compatible with Coinbase’s current infrastructure and any funds sent to this address type will not be recoverable. We strongly recommend that you only send funds to Coinbase-supported address types.

Yes, Coinbase supports Bech32! Bech32 is a native SegWit address format that is supported by the Bitcoin Core wallet and many other popular wallets. Bech32 addresses are more efficient and cheaper to use than P2SH-wrapped SegWit addresses, so we recommend using them whenever possible.
