In under 4 years, Coinbase has become a respected powerhouse in the digital currency space. From humble beginnings at Silicon Valley venture capital accelerator Y Combinator (YC seeded Dropbox, Airbnb, Stripe, Reddit, Weebly and many more), Coinbase is all things to all bitcoin users. After establishing an account individuals can integrate bank accounts to purchase bitcoin, set up trading accounts and more. Merchant accounts have access to applications that make accepting bitcoin and converting to local currencies a breeze.
Now a shifty move and a play on words tells us Coinbase may be distancing itself, just a little, from bitcoin.
