Coinbase denies India closure despite blocking sign-ups and warning users

Coinbase says that it maintains a “robust tech hub” in India and still offers live products, including its Coinbase Wallet.

Coinbase-made Base briefly breaks, affecting apps like friend.tech

Base, the Optimism-based rollup incubated under Coinbase, stalled its block production yesterday, affecting applications like friend.tech.

BitClout-esque social network Friend.Tech is losing steam after a faddish start that saw it earn more than $4 million in fees in August.

The CEO of ChainArgos believes that Coinbase doesn’t operate a legal exchange and is violating the terms of its money transmitter licenses.

The most popular use for Base, Friend.tech, bears eerily similar features to BitClout, the failed social crypto experiment that’s down 95%.
