About Coinbase
Coinbase is a global digital asset exchange headquartered in the United States. In 2020, Coinbase announced that it would adopt a remote working approach, with employees distributed around the world and no so-called "headquarters".
Coinbase launched its Bitcoin trading service in October 2012. In 2015, Coinbase expanded its digital asset trading products and established a separate digital asset exchange to meet the trading needs of investors. At the beginning of its establishment, the exchange was named GDAX, which stands for Global Digital Asset Exchange. On January 17, 2017, it obtained the New York State Bitcoin Trading License. In May 2018, GDAX was renamed to its current name, Coinbase Pro. Currently, Coinbase Pro operates in more than 100 countries/regions around the world.

Security of Coinbase

At the same time, Coinbase complies with local jurisdictions and conducts strict review of the new meeting. Although the digital asset trading platform has taken security measures, it cannot completely guarantee the safety of users' funds.
