Coinbase 因將 WBTC 下架與孫宇晨聯繫在一起而受到批評
Coinbase 在提交的文件中提到了對 Sun 的擔憂，並以財務不當行爲指控和正在進行的監管調查作爲退市的原因。據交易所稱，Sun 參與 WBTC 項目帶來了重大風險，可能會損害其平臺的完整性。 然而，這一解釋引發了加密社區的尖銳批評，許多人質疑 Coinbase 此舉的法律和技術理由是否充分。 BiT Global 在 12 月 13 日提起的訴訟中辯稱，退市是非法的，將對 WBTC 的經濟造成不可彌補的損害。該訴訟還批評 Coinbase 列出其他代幣，包括 memecoin，BiT Global 聲稱這些代幣沒有 WBTC 嚴重。 此外，BiT 認爲，COIN 推出自己的代幣化Bitcoin產品 cbBTC 違反了反壟斷法，並可能導致代幣化Bitcoin市場的壟斷，從而可能抑制競爭。 該交易所的文件指出孫宇晨過去涉嫌的不當行爲，包括欺詐和市場操縱的指控，證明了其退市的合理性。它表達了對 BiT Global 信譽的懷疑，強調了該公司與 Sun 的聯繫。 該交易所辯稱，其內部流程導致了將 WBTC 摘牌的決定，因爲擔心繼續與 Sun 合作可能會危及其平臺的安全和客戶信任。 儘管如此，BiT Global 要求撤銷下架的法律請求聲稱 Coinbase 的決定是武斷的且沒有法律依據，這表明下架將損害代幣的流動性和市場價值。 Bitcoin愛好者和該交易所的批評者，例如著名人物 Pledditor，痛斥了該交易所的行爲，指責其依靠站不住腳的理由來刪除 WBTC。 在 X 上的一篇帖子中，Pledditor 將 Coinbase 的決定描述爲“連帶罪”，認爲該交易所對 Sun 的敵意掩蓋了此舉的任何堅實的法律或技術基礎。 因此，在今天的法庭文件中， @Coinbase給出了將 wBTC 摘牌的原因，基本上就是他們不喜歡孫宇晨。 Bit Global：WBTC 下架是“不明智的”
加密社區掀起軒然大波
確實就是這樣。
他們沒有給出任何關於 wBTC 不能上市的技術或法律論據。這只是協會的罪惡感pic.twitter.com/bJmMnAue7x
The crypto exchange’s justification also faces scrutiny due to its own legal challenges. Sun, who has been the target of multiple regulatory investigations, is facing charges from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for alleged violations, including fraud.
Adding to the debate, VanEck adviser Gabor Gurbacs highlighted the irony in COIN’s stance against Sun, pointing out that the exchange itself is embroiled in significant legal battles. Gurbacs noted that Coinbase, which is under investigation by the SEC for allegedly offering unregistered securities, is hypocritical for focusing on Sun’s alleged misconduct while facing its own regulatory challenges.
It’s ironic that @coinbase is treating @justinsuntron this way. Coinbase itself is under SEC and numerous other investigations, probably many more than Justin and his businesses. Questioning someone’s reputation this way might just bring out skeletons from their own closet. https://t.co/LsJx7iOhJR

Meanwhile, the crypto exchange is also facing charges from the SEC, including one filed in June 2023, accusing the exchange of offering unregistered securities through various tokens listed on its platform.
Coinbase’s Chief Legal Officer, Paul Grewal, publicly called for a more constructive approach from regulators toward the cryptocurrency industry.
In addition to the SEC investigation, Coinbase also settled with the New York Department of Financial Services in January 2023 for $100 million, addressing concerns about its compliance program.
