TAMPA, Fla. and NAPLES, Fla., March 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CryptoLawyers.org, a law firm helmed by two of the nation's leading investment fraud attorneys fighting for the rights of cryptocurrency investors, today announced that it has commenced an investigation on behalf of customers of Coinbase, Robinhood, and other cryptocurrency exchanges, who have purchased crypto securities from those companies. The investigation concerns possible violations of state and federal securities laws and the failure to furnish investors with material risk disclosures as required by those laws.
"The investigation we are launching is different in kind from any lawsuit or investigation that has been announced to date in the crypto universe," Tom Grady, a co-founder of the firm who has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for clients over the nearly four decades he has been practicing securities law, said. "We believe Coinbase, Robinhood, and other exchanges have violated the law, and investors who lost money purchasing cryptocurrencies on their platforms may be entitled to recover those losses."
"What makes our case different from others is that we seek to enforce the agreements these companies had customers sign rather than challenge and, as a result, we believe our clients will be able to have their claims heard much more quickly than other legal claims out there," added co-founder Guy Burns.
CryptoLawyers.org is currently asking clients of Coinbase, Robinhood, and other exchanges who suffered losses purchasing cryptocurrencies on their platforms to reach out to share information about their investments and for a free evaluation to see if they may have a claim that meets Crypto Lawyers' criteria for speedy filing and resolution. Interested parties can learn more by visiting CryptoLawyers.org or emailing us at [email protected].
Coinbase was founded in 2012 by Brian Armstrong, a former Airbnb engineer. In 2021, it became a public reporting company on the Nasdaq exchange via a direct listing. Since its founding, Coinbase has offered, sold and made a market in digital asset investments, some of which have been found by the SEC to be "securities" requiring their own registration or exemption in order to be offered for sale. In spite of those SEC findings, Coinbase continues to offer digital asset investments that are not registered with the SEC in possible violation of state and federal law.
Robinhood Markets, Inc. is a financial services company headquartered in California. The company began offering the ability to trade cryptocurrencies in 2018. In 2020 Robinhood disclosed that it was under SEC investigation for failing to disclose material information to its clients and later paid $65 million to settle the investigation.
Whistleblower Notice: Anyone with nonpublic information regarding Coinbase or Robinhood should consider aiding this investigation or the SEC's investigation through the SEC Whistleblower Program. Under that program, whistleblowers who provide original information may receive rewards totaling up to 30% of any successful recovery made by the SEC.
