Coinbase steigt scheinbar, wenn Cathie Wood ausgestiegen ist. Teilweise hat die Dame echt ein schlechtes Timing.

JPMorgan-Analysten sehen anscheinend Coinbase lieber Tod als lebendig! Diese Negativ-News-Orgie geht ja schon seit paar Wochen!

An update on our investigation

Following allegations of frontrunning of certain assets ahead of a company announcement, our Legal, Security, Special Investigations, and Global Intelligence teams immediately launched an internal investigation into the matter. In the course of our investigation, we identified three suspects: a Coinbase employee who we believe had violated our Global Digital Asset Trading Policy, and two individuals not employed by Coinbase who we believe he was working with. Once we collected sufficient evidence to be confident in our suspicions, we provided information about these individuals to the DOJ and terminated our employee. On July 21, 2022, the DOJ criminally charged these individuals with committing wire fraud and wire fraud conspiracy in connection with misusing Coinbase confidential information about asset listings. We appreciate the DOJ’s recognition of our help in holding these individuals accountable.

Coinbase takes allegations of improper use of company information very seriously, as demonstrated by our rapid investigation of this matter. Again, we have zero tolerance for this kind of misconduct and will not hesitate to take action against any employee when we find wrongdoing.
We understand that the SEC has separately filed securities fraud charges related to this wrongdoing today. The DOJ did not charge securities fraud. No assets listed on our platform are securities, and the SEC charges are an unfortunate distraction from today’s appropriate law enforcement action.

We work hard to ensure all market participants have access to the same information, not only to protect our company but to protect our customers. We are committed to doing our part to ensure all traders are operating on an even playing field, which is critical to furthering Coinbase’s mission of promoting economic freedom.

Coinbase Faces SEC Investigation on Cryptocurrency Listings

Coinbase Global Inc. is facing a US probe into whether it improperly let Americans trade digital assets that should have been registered as securities, according to three people familiar with the matter.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission’s scrutiny of Coinbase has increased since the platform expanded the number of tokens in which it offers trading, said two of the people, who asked not to be named because the inquiry hasn’t been disclosed publicly. The probe by the SEC’s enforcement unit predates the agency’s investigation into an alleged insider trading scheme that led the regulator last week to sue a former Coinbase manager and two other people.

“We are confident that our rigorous diligence process -- a process the SEC has already reviewed -- keeps securities off our platform, and we look forward to engaging with the SEC on the matter,” Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal said on Twitter. The SEC declined to comment.

Krass, wird immer schlimmer, auch, wenn das mit der Firma selbst wohl Nix zu tun hat.

‘Fraud is fraud’: Former Coinbase manager charged in first-ever cryptocurrency insider-trading case
Ishan Wahi is accused of tipping his brother and pal of upcoming crypto asset listings, from which they illegally netted $1.5 million in trades.

A former Coinbase product manager has been charged in the first-ever cryptocurrency insider-trading case, for allegedly tipping his brother and a friend to upcoming asset listings that weren’t yet publicly known.

Ishan Wahi, 32, of Seattle, worked as a product manager for Coinbase Global the largest crypto exchange in the U.S., and was one of a small group of employees who received advance knowledge of assets that were soon to be listed on the exchange.

Federal prosecutors said that between August 2021 and May 2022, Wahi told his brother, Nikhil Wahi, 26, of Seattle, and their friend, Sameer Ramani, 33, of Houston, Texas, of the upcoming listings and that they used that information to place favorable trades ahead of time.

Prosecutors said that over the course of 14 separate trades Nikhil Wahi and Ramani illegally netted $1.5 million in illicit profits. All three men are charged with wire fraud and wire fraud conspiracy, and face up to 20 years in prison if convicted. The Securities and Exchange Commission has also filed a civil suit against the men.

The Wahi brothers were arrested in Seattle on Thursday, prosecutors said, but Ramani remains at large. It wasn’t immediately clear if the men had retained attorneys and they could not immediately be reached.

“Today’s charges are a further reminder that Web3 is not a law-free zone,” said Damian Williams, the U.S. attorney in Manhattan. “Our message with these charges is clear: fraud is fraud is fraud, whether it occurs on the blockchain or on Wall Street.”


Williams said the charges marked the first insider trading case ever brought involving crypto currencies. In June, his office had brought the first insider trading case involving non-fungible tokens, or NFTs.

According to authorities, Coinbase became aware of the possibility of a leak in April when a Twitter account popular in the crypto community flagged a series of anonymous Ethereum trades that exactly matched an asset listing on the exchange that came 24 hours later.

At the time, Coinbase said it had begun an investigation into the matter and anyone caught providing insider information would be “immediately terminated and referred to relevant authorities (potentially for criminal prosecution).”

In a statement, Coinbase said it had turned over the details of its internal investigation to federal authorities after determining who was involved.

“Coinbase takes allegations of improper use of company information very seriously,” the company said. “We have zero tolerance for this kind of misconduct and will not hesitate to take action against any employee when we find wrongdoing.”

Prosecutors said that Coinbase’s head of security called Ishan Wahi in for a meeting in May. Shortly after receiving that message, Wahi allegedly purchased a one-way ticket to India. He then told the company he had already left the country, even though he hadn’t, and then informed his brother and Remani of the company’s probe. He ultimately attempted to leave the country, but was stopped by authorities before boarding his flight, prosecutors said.
