Coinbase has not had a data breach.

Amplitude, an analytics vendor, experienced a security incident which impacted a small subset of Coinbase customer contact data, among other Amplitude customers.

We’ve found no evidence of unauthorized access to Coinbase systems, and customer funds were not impacted.

We are notifying impacted customers and regulatory agencies in accordance with our legal obligations.

2/ Before trading, confirm:

• The contract address
• Asset flags and token permissions
• Liquidity, price impact, and holder concentration
• The network and fees

If anything looks unclear, pause.

4/ If you proceed, a small test transaction may help you confirm token liquidity.

Never connect your wallet or sign a transaction from an unverified link. Losses from unverified tokens may be outside Coinbase’s ability to address.

5/ Review Coinbase’s DEX trading safety guide before you trade:

Need help? Use official in-app support. Never share your recovery phrase, password, or 2-step verification code.

1/ DEX assets trade on third-party decentralized exchanges and may not go through Coinbase’s listing process.

If you’re using a self-custody wallet, verify what you’re signing. Onchain transactions generally can’t be reversed.

DEX trading can give you access to more assets—but it also comes with risks. Before you trade, take a moment to check: 🧵

To get started: Open Coinbase → Account & Settings → Security, then check your security score at the top.

Review the factors affecting your score, then open the top recommendation and follow the suggested setup. Start with one step at a time.

Use official in-app support if needed. Never share your password or 2-step code.

Start with your security score.

Find it, review the recommendations, and take the next suggested step.🧵

Security score helps surface settings that may need attention.

Use it as a checklist for practical account-protection steps, not as proof that your account is risk-free.

Don’t send crypto to get crypto back. Giveaway scams can look convincing, but the promised prize never arrives. Learn the red flags and what to do if you’ve already sent funds: coinbase.com/blog/consumer-…

One setting can add extra safety before a transfer completes.

Here's how Transfer Protection's threshold, verification methods, trusted contacts, and time delay work. 🧵

Set a Time delay from 6–48 hours. During the wait, watch the transfer details and cancel a pending transfer if it looks suspicious. Coinbase may send email, SMS, and push notifications.

Settings and methods can vary by account or product.

If an option is unavailable or an approval is pending, use official in-app support. Never share your password or 2-step code.

Your security score says “Needs attention.”

Here’s where to start 🧵

Know the emergency button: use Lock account only if someone has gained unauthorized access. Locking signs you out on all devices; unlocking requires identity verification.

Transfer Protection can add extra checks to outbound transfers. We’ll cover that more here later on.

Make your October security checkup: open the Coinbase app → Security → review your devices, activity, and 2-step verification.
