If you entered Coinbase’s June 2021 Dogecoin sweepstakes and traded at least $100 in DOGE on the platform between June 3–10, 2021, you may be owed cash — automatically.
Why Was There a Lawsuit?
The lawsuit claimed that Coinbase didn’t clearly tell users they could enter the Dogecoin sweepstakes for free — leading some people to buy or trade at least $100 in Dogecoin unnecessarily. This allegedly violated California’s False Advertising and Unfair Competition Laws.
Coinbase denies wrongdoing but agreed to settle to avoid further litigation.
