Thanks, @cobie. My team has been investigating since yesterday. Investigations like this are not quick or simple but they are critical to determining the context surrounding those on-chain movements. Transparency is also key, so I will share any findings as soon as we are able.
2/ During our investigation, we identified a Coinbase employee who we suspected improperly shared confidential information about Coinbase’s asset listings. We also identified two non-Coinbase individuals this person appeared to be working with.

6/ We strongly urge others in the space to hold themselves to these same standards, even if it might be difficult at first. Trust is never given - it is earned.
