Supreme Court Rules Against Coinbase in Dogecoin Sweepstakes Case
Crypto exchange Coinbase has suffered a legal setback as the Supreme Court ruled against it in a dispute concerning its 2021 Dogecoin sweepstakes.
In the case Coinbase, Inc. v. Suski, consumers accused Coinbase of deceptive practices, alleging they were misled into paying $100 or more to enter a sweepstakes for a chance to win up to $1.2 million in Dogecoin (DOGE).
On Thursday, the Supreme Court delivered a unanimous verdict against Coinbase, determining that the dispute should be adjudicated by a court rather than an arbitrator.
