"Dutch central bank fines cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase 3.3 mln euros"
Primary Source ↗Incident Details
The Dutch central bank levied a €3.3 million ($3.6 million) fine against Coinbase, who began operating in the Netherlands without properly registering. The fine is reportedly unusually large, because of Coinbase’s prominence and because it had accumulated a significant number of Dutch customers without the proper registration. Coinbase had been noncompliant from November 2020 to August 2022.
