⚠️ Risk Flags

No adverse-media or risk-lexicon signals detected in the collected evidence. This is not an all-clear — absence of signal in open sources is not absence of risk.

Identity & Background

  • Background (encyclopedic): Coinbase Global, Inc. is an American cryptocurrency exchange. It was founded in 2012 by Brian Armstrong and Fred Ehrsam. Coinbase has over 100 million users, and is the largest U.S. based cryptocurrency exchange as well as the world's biggest bitcoin custodian, as of 2024. The company operates in more than 100 countries and holds nearly US$516 billion in assets, including nearly 12 percent of all bitcoin in existence and 11 percent of all staked Ether. [E1]
  • Legal-entity identity (GLEIF): Legal name: Coinbase Global, Inc. · LEI: 5493004G3J2SC154DU06 · Jurisdiction: US-TX · Legal address: Dallas, US-TX, US · Entity status: ACTIVE · LEI registration: ISSUED [E2] (high confidence)
  • Regulatory identity: Registrant: Coinbase Global, Inc. · Ticker(s): COIN · SIC industry: Finance Services (6199) · HQ: NEW YORK, NY [E3] (high confidence)

Sanctions & Watchlist Screening

No entry on the screened sanctions lists exactly matches this name. SENTINEL matches names conservatively (exact match after normalising legal suffixes), so a differently-spelled, transliterated, or aliased listing would NOT be caught here — and screening only covers the lists shown in the Collection Log. This is not a sanctions clearance.

Corporate Structure & Ownership

No parent entity is reported in GLEIF Level-2 relationship data. That means none was reported — it does not establish that the entity is independent or ultimately owned by anyone in particular.
