Coinbase Global Inc., the largest US cryptocurrency exchange, said it stopped taking orders on a recently launched advanced trading feature after an unverified Twitter user warned of a possible vulnerability.
A Coinbase spokesperson said the company is in touch with the Twitter user to learn more about the issue. Coinbase Chief Executive Officer Brian Armstrong also replied to the Twitter user, saying that the company will investigate.
