Lead Plaintiff motion deadline
Coinbase stockholders filed a claim against Coinbase Global for failing to disclose problems with its anti-money laundering controls, which hurt its reputation and caused its stock to drop.
  • On July 25, 2024, news about regulatory action caused Coinbase's stock to fall by over 15%, leading to significant financial losses for shareholders.
  • Affected Coinbase investors may join the claim to be notified about potential recovery.
On July 25, 2024, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) announced an enforcement action against CB Payments Limited, a Coinbase subsidiary.
  • The FCA revealed that Coinbase did not have proper systems in place to prevent illegal activity on its platform.
As a result of this news, Coinbase’s stock dropped by 15%, causing billions of dollars in losses for investors.

Based on these events, Coinbase stockholders filed a claim against the company and its leaders, accusing them of the following:
  • Failing to disclose serious problems with its anti-money laundering controls.
  • Misleading investors about Coinbase’s compliance with financial regulations, which caused the stock to be overvalued.
Given these issues, investors believe Coinbase misled the public about its compliance, which directly impacted its stock price and investor confidence.

One of Coinbase’s investors has already filed a claim against the company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
