Coinbase Global Inc. Class A Common Stock (NASDAQ: COIN)
The Complaint alleges that, throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) In 2020, the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") had deemed efforts by CB Payments Limited ("CBPL"), part of the Coinbase Group, to prevent criminals from using its platform to be inadequate; (2) as a result, the FCA reached an agreement with CBPL, which put requirements in place that were designed to prevent high risk customers from using CBPL's platform; (3) CBPL then breached that agreement, which resulted in 13,416 high risk individuals receiving services; (4) the foregoing resulted in an undisclosed heightened regulatory risk; and (5) as a result, Defendants' statements about its business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
