Coinbase, the largest U.S.-based crypto trading platform, is facing obstacles in the form of hostile regulators (including the SEC, which sued the company), data breaches, disgruntled customers, and technical glitches. Plus, it's facing new competition from fund companies and brokerages.

The largest US digital-asset trading platform is forecast to have swung back to a profit from a loss in the year-earlier period, with trading volume and mobile-app downloads surging during a resurgence in demand that was driven by the introduction of US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds.

The industrywide selloff reflected growing concerns about the health of the U.S. economy and tracked a broader decline in prices of bitcoin , ether and risky assets in general. The tech-heavy Nasdaq slid 5.8% for the week, its worst performance since January 2022.

Coinbase has excellent security measures to ensure its users' funds are safe. However, we recommend moving your crypto assets off any exchange into a self-custodial hardware wallet.

The vast majority of Coinbase client cash is stored in FDIC-insured bank accounts and U.S. government money market funds to keep it safe and liquid.

Just because it's the biggest U.S. exchange doesn't mean Coinbase is safe to use! Coinbase takes extensive security measures to keep customer accounts and cryptocurrency investments safe. Nonetheless, many customers have faced unauthorized account access.

How do I get my money out of Coinbase? ›

Coinbase is not an FDIC-insured bank and cryptocurrency is not insured or guaranteed by or subject to the protections of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”), and may lose value.

Unable to buy crypto or add cash

The attempted payment method might only be available for direct crypto purchases or depositing cash into your balance. Try completing the transaction using a different payment option. We might not recognize your payment method as a trusted source.

For any crypto exchange, security is key. Many Coinbase customers are concerned about the potential for unauthorized access, especially in light of recently reported security breaches. For example, in 2021, hackers stole crypto assets and user information from at least 6,000 Coinbase customers.

Funds on hold

When you use a linked bank account (ACH) to buy crypto or add cash to your account balance, the funds are placed on hold and won't be immediately available to send or cash out. Think of this like depositing a check to your bank account and having to wait for it to clear before you can remove the funds.

Coinbase Advanced replaced Coinbase Pro as an improved advanced trading platform. Customers will see the same low volume-based fees as Coinbase Pro and do not need a subscription fee to use this feature. The Coinbase Advanced API lets you manage orders, products, and fees with our new v3 endpoints.
