on April 23, Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul filed a lawsuit in Dane County against Kalshi, Robinhood, Coinbase, Polymarket, and Crypto.com, accusing these fintech and crypto platforms of facilitating illegal sports betting through event contracts. Josh Kaul is requesting the court to issue preliminary and permanent injunctions, declaring that the platforms' operations violate Wisconsin's gambling laws and constitute a public nuisance. The complaint states that repackaging wagers as event contracts does not change their fundamental nature, with approximately 90% of Kalshi's business coming from sports-related contracts, generating annualized revenue exceeding $1 billion. Robinhood and Coinbase are also implicated in the case, routing user orders to Kalshi's markets through distribution agreements. Regulators in Nevada, Arizona, and Tennessee have also taken similar legal actions or issued cease-and-desist orders.
According to an official announcement, Coinbase will list Fluent (BLEND) spot trading. If liquidity conditions are met and the trading pair is supported, the BLEND-USD trading pair will go live later today.
Coinbase Markets has added Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL), Pharos (PROS), and KAIO (KAIO) to its asset listing roadmap. The specific listing dates depend on market-making support and technical readiness, and will be announced separately once conditions are met.
Coinbase stated it is optimizing the rule creation process in its anti-fraud system by integrating machine learning models with a rule engine to achieve more efficient risk management. It also proposed a dual-track strategy where "models are responsible for long-term defense, and rules are responsible for rapid response," and built a unified framework that creates a feedback loop between the two: rules are used to capture new types of fraudulent behavior and then inversely train the model, thereby continuously enhancing overall defense capabilities.In terms of specific optimizations, Coinbase has transformed the previously manual rule creation process into a data-driven and automatically recommended one by restructuring data architecture, automating Schema evolution, and introducing Notebook-based analysis tools, significantly improving efficiency. Among these improvements, the performance of rule backtesting has increased by more than 10 times, and the overall response time has been shortened from days to hours. Additionally, the new system recommends parameters through machine learning, which helps reduce false positive rates, minimizing the impact on legitimate users while combating fraud.Coinbase stated that its next steps will be to advance event-driven automatic rule generation and explore the ability to "convert" efficient rules into model features with a single click, further moving towards an automated risk management system.
Coinbase announced support for Fluent (BLEND); deposit addresses are now available on its platform (in supported regions), but deposits cannot be made until the asset issuer enables transfers.

Odaily News A 50-page report commissioned by Coinbase indicates that although current quantum computers are not yet capable of cracking the encryption technologies of networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum, fault-tolerant large-scale quantum computers will eventually be built, and the crypto industry must begin preparations now. The report was authored by an independent advisory committee, including cryptographers and scholars such as Dan Boneh from Stanford University, Justin Drake from the Ethereum Foundation, and Sreeram Kannan from Eigen Labs.The report states that estimates for the time it would take quantum computers to break current encryption standards range from several years to over a decade. The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology recommends migrating to post-quantum cryptography by 2035, but the report suggests this timeline may be optimistic. Post-quantum cryptography already exists and is undergoing standardization, but post-quantum digital signatures can be tens to hundreds of times larger than existing signatures, potentially increasing block sizes by up to 38 times and introducing challenges such as wallet migration. The Ethereum Foundation has proposed a post-quantum digital signature scheme, and projects like Solana are also experimenting with post-quantum wallet designs. The report recommends adopting flexible transition strategies, such as hybrid systems, to prepare for future upgrades without compromising current security.
According to an official announcement, Coinbase will list Sign (SIGN) spot trading on April 21. The SIGN-USD trading pair will go live later that day, once liquidity conditions are met, in regions where such trading is supported.
Coinbase’s Quantum Computing and Blockchain Independent Advisory Committee released its first position paper, stating that sufficiently powerful quantum computers could one day break the cryptographic mechanisms used by mainstream blockchains to protect digital assets—but such devices do not yet exist, and crypto assets remain secure for now. The industry should begin preparing for quantum-resistant upgrades immediately. The paper notes that Bitcoin mining, hash functions, and on-chain historical records currently face no material risk; the primary vulnerability lies at the wallet layer—in digital signatures. Ethereum has already proposed a relatively clear migration roadmap, while Solana, Algorand, and Aptos have either begun offering or are planning quantum-resistant solutions.
According to an official announcement, Coinbase has suspended trading of 25 perpetual contracts, as previously announced. All outstanding positions in these contracts have been automatically settled at the final settlement price. The affected contracts include TRB, RARE, NEIRO, A, ME, XTZ, KMNO, RAY, STX, ENS, GMT, SNX, 1000FLOKI, 0G, ORDI, NIL, BIO, UMA, BEAM, INIT, SOMI, EGLD, CLANKER, SOPH, and BIGTIME. The final settlement price was calculated as the average index price over the 60 minutes preceding the suspension. Coinbase stated that this action aims to focus on products that consistently meet liquidity and market quality standards, and that it will accelerate the launch of new perpetual contracts by optimizing internal processes.
According to an official announcement, Coinbase will list Opengradient (OPG) spot trading on April 21. If liquidity conditions are met, the OPG-USD trading pair will open later today in supported regions.
Odaily News: Coinbase has announced that it will list CHIP (CHIP) and Opengradient (OPG).

Odaily News Grayscale has updated its ETF application document linked to Hyperliquid, changing the custodian to Anchorage Digital Bank, replacing Coinbase which previously served as the prime broker and custodian.This adjustment has garnered significant attention, as Coinbase has long dominated the crypto ETF custody space. Currently, almost all U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs (except Fidelity's) rely on its custody services.The filing shows that The Bank of New York Mellon will continue to serve as the transfer agent for this ETF (proposed ticker GHYP). The fund's staking functionality still requires regulatory approval and will utilize CoinDesk's Hyperliquid benchmark pricing data.Furthermore, Anchorage Digital Bank, as the first federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S., has been continuously expanding its institutional service capabilities in recent years, including areas such as stablecoins, wealth management, and token lifecycle management.

Coinbase announced that it will list CHIP and Opengradient for trading. Users can now generate deposit addresses, but deposits and trading will only be possible after the projects enable transfers.
According to The Block, Grayscale has filed a revised Hyperliquid ETF application with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), naming Anchorage Digital Bank as the fund’s custodian in place of Coinbase. Anchorage is the first crypto-native bank to receive a federal banking charter in the U.S. and has recently expanded rapidly into stablecoin services, wealth management, and token lifecycle management—becoming the first institution in the U.S. to support TRON. If approved, the ETF will trade on Nasdaq under the ticker “GHYP”; staking functionality remains subject to regulatory approval.
