Coinbase Breach Timeline Disputed by Security Researcher

A security researcher claims that Coinbase was aware of a security breach in December 2024, where attackers bribed support staff to access nearly 70,000 customer details, at least four months before the company disclosed the incident. The researcher, Jonathan Clark, reported the breach to Coinbase on January 7, 2025, after being targeted by the scammers. Coinbase's response to the report has been called into question.
