Coinbase says customer funds safe after Amplitude contact-data incident

  • —Incident at analytics vendor Amplitude affected contact data of a small subset of Coinbase customers
  • —Coinbase said its systems were not compromised and customer funds remain safe
  • —Affected users will receive notification from the exchange
  • —Exact scope of exposed data fields and customer counts was not disclosed
Why it matters: Exposed contact details raise phishing and impersonation risk even though wallets and custody were not affected.
