Coinbase: Over 99% of user assets are stored in cold wallets, with private keys split for storage

Coinbase published an article introducing its user asset protection mechanism and stated that it has not been affected by the previous security incident involving Binance's hot wallet. Currently, the platform's system and user funds remain unaffected.Coinbase stated that over 99% of user assets are stored in cold wallets, with hot wallets only retaining a small amount of funds to meet users' daily withdrawal and usage needs, dynamically adjusting the balance based on deposit and withdrawal demands. The assets in its institutional custody vaults are all stored in cold storage and are independently isolated on-chain.In terms of fund transfer security, Coinbase employs distributed key protection, withdrawal limits, abnormal activity monitoring, and emergency stop mechanisms. Cold wallet private keys are split and stored, and the signing process does not fully reconstruct them; the key signing service in the hot wallet production environment does not allow single-person independent access. If abnormal transactions or a surge in withdrawal amounts are detected, the system will trigger an investigation and limit, and if necessary, can pause part or all fund transfers by shutting down the signing key.Coinbase also stated that user assets are always held by the users, and the platform holds assets on a 1:1 basis, without lending or misappropriating them without user instructions. As of September 30, 2026, the asset scale on the Coinbase platform reached $377 billion, holding $8.6 billion in cash and cash equivalents, and $2.2 billion in investment cryptocurrencies. The company stated that as AI capabilities develop and change the security risk landscape, it will continue to increase investment in security technology.

first_img Toady Hawk: Appointed CEO of the token issuance platform Clanker, will promote the restart

Base Security Committee member Toady Hawk announced on November 3rd via X that he has accepted the position of CEO at the token issuance platform Clanker, responsible for driving the platform's restart. He stated that Clanker is now managed by Mask Network, which is also the manager of Firefly and Lens Protocol, and has collaborated with the engineering team to promote the restart, with more arrangements to be announced later.Toady Hawk recalled that Clanker was born about two years ago on Farcaster, where users could post on the timeline and tag the platform to issue tokens. The platform later expanded to X and once became the highest trading volume token issuance platform on Base, with related communities including BNKR, DRB, and FAIR. He mentioned that the platform subsequently experienced changes due to early founder controversies, being sold to Farcaster, and the handover to Neynar, which affected it multiple times over the past 18 months. He also stated that he has been working independently since he was 17 and prefers to manage projects he personally founded, but has accepted this position.His listed priorities after taking office include: updating the brand while retaining its original features, improving external communication, and collaborating with the engineering team to align functionalities with current mainstream issuance platforms, covering stock trading pairs, new chain support, and an unnamed first-day support feature. Other matters include rebuilding trust between builders and the trading community, supporting early communities still under construction, and bringing new issuance activities back to the information flow. He also stated that he will assist in planning projects for issuing meme tokens, stock trading pairs, or application tokens, and collaborate with developers who wish to continue building based on the Clanker protocol. The official Clanker account responded on the same day, stating that the restart is in progress.
