Coinbase chief legal officer responds to cbBTC service terms fears

Coinbase’s cbBTC is backed at a 1:1 ratio with Bitcoin, which serves as the underlying asset for the tokenized BTC wrapper.

Coinbase chief legal officer Paul Grewal responded to recent fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) surrounding the user terms of service for Coinbase’s newly launched cbBTC “wrapped Bitcoin” product — confirming that Coinbase would fully reimburse clients in the event the exchange loses the underlying Bitcoin (BTC).

The clarification came after one individual highlighted what they believed to be a troubling provision within the cbBTC user agreement — claiming that Coinbase would not reimburse customers the full amount of Bitcoin lost due to malicious activity or unforeseen events, but would instead give clients a “proportional share of whatever BTC is left.”
