Crisis Resolved for Altcoin Experiencing Major Issues with Coinbase: Agreement Reached
The post Crisis Resolved for Altcoin Experiencing Major Issues with Coinbase: Agreement Reached appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The legal dispute between Coinbase and BiT Global over the delisting of BiT Global’s Wrapped Bitcoin (wBTC) token from the Coinbase platform has concluded with a settlement between the parties. BiT Global has “definitively” dropped its lawsuit filed in the Northern District Court of California, meaning it cannot be refiled. Under the agreement, each side will cover its own legal fees. BiT Global claimed in a lawsuit filed last year that Coinbase had unjustifiably delisted wBTC, damaging the token’s liquidity and reputation. The company claimed that Coinbase aimed to highlight its own competing product, cbBTC, with this decision. Coinbase defended its decision to delist, stating that the token posed an “unacceptable risk” and that it was concerned that “it could end up in Justin Sun’s hands.” Chinese-born cryptocurrency billionaire Justin Sun became associated with wBTC through his partnership with BiT Global in August of last year. Following this development, Coinbase began to question Sun’s role in the project. Interestingly, after Sun joined the project as an advisor, World Liberty Financial abandoned cbBTC and resumed supporting wBTC. However, the lawsuit did not provide any additional details about the content of the agreement. The parties only agreed that they would cover their own legal costs. *This is not investment advice.
