. While attempting to broaden its users and services, it has been sanctioned by one of the countries it operates in. Is this most recent sanction sufficient to spark a FUD?has fined Coinbase $3.62 million, or 3,325,000 euros, for providing cryptocurrency services to Dutch users without duly registering with appropriate authorities.
