Coinbase officially stated it is cooperating with the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office in New York to assist in investigating a long-term impersonation scam targeting platform users and supporting victims in recovering funds.According to the Brooklyn District Attorney's Office, a Brooklyn man has been charged with long-term impersonation of Coinbase customer service. Using social engineering tactics, he tricked users into believing their accounts had been compromised and instructed them to transfer funds to a "secure wallet," subsequently moving and stealing the funds. The case involves approximately 100 victims, with the total amount involved nearing $16 million. Over $600,000 has been recovered so far.Coinbase stated that this type of scam does not stem from platform security vulnerabilities but is a social engineering attack exploiting user trust and a sense of urgency. Common methods include identity forgery, impersonating customer service, and creating panic over account risks. The company stated it has cooperated with law enforcement agencies to complete various investigative tasks, including identifying suspects, assisting with victim notifications, providing data support for legal requests, and conducting on-chain fund tracing. It emphasized that blockchain traceability helps law enforcement track the flow of funds.Coinbase also reminded users that the platform will never ask them to transfer funds to a "secure wallet" or request 2FA codes, seed phrases, or password reset links. It recommends that users only contact customer service through official in-app channels. The company will continue to strengthen its anti-fraud mechanisms, user education, and cooperation with law enforcement agencies to address increasingly sophisticated crypto asset fraud activities.

Odaily Odaily News Blockchain analyst Vadim noted that Base experienced a network outage today due to a consensus bug triggered by a single invalid block. All block generation after height 47806542 ceased, halting the network for nearly two hours. Since Base utilizes a single sequencer architecture, when that node encountered an error, the entire network stopped running, with no backup block producer or other validator nodes available to bypass the fault and maintain on-chain activity. During the outage, users were unable to conduct transactions, perform liquidations, or process withdrawals.Furthermore, the network recovery process was not automated; node operators within the ecosystem had to manually restart for block synchronization to gradually resume. This is not the first such incident for Base. In August of last year, the network also experienced a freeze lasting approximately 33 minutes due to a sequencer switching failure. The single sequencer model exposes the centralization risks in some current L2 networks: while offering higher speed, the entire chain can come to a halt due to a single point of failure when the core component malfunctions.
