CFTC Sends Subpoena to Cryptocurrency Exchange Coinbase – Here’s Why

Coinbase, one of the largest cryptocurrency exchanges in the United States, has been served a subpoena by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) requesting customer data related to its Polymarket prediction market, according to a source with knowledge of the matter. The subpoena, unsealed today, seeks “public customer information” tied to Polymarket, a blockchain-based prediction platform that has been gaining traction ahead of the November election.
