Coinbase Expands German Market with Eight New Token Listings

Coinbase Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Delayed Data Breach Disclosure

Coinbase Global Inc. (COIN) shares tumbled 7.25% to $240 after the crypto exchange disclosed a December 2024 data breach that wasn’t publicly revealed until May 2025. Investors filed a class action alleging the company knew about the security incident in January but delayed notification, creating a five-month window where shareholders traded without material information.

The breach disclosure came alongside revelations of a $400 million estimated remediation cost. Separately, Coinbase’s UK subsidiary was fined $4.5 million in July 2024 for anti-money laundering violations. Despite the setbacks, COIN stock has shown resilience, recovering to $263 as institutional investors appear to view the incidents as contained.
