Coinbase
San Francisco, CA
Coinbase has built the world's leading compliant cryptocurrency platform serving over 30 million accounts in more than 100 countries. With multiple successful products, and our vocal advocacy for blockchain technology, we have played a major part in mainstream awareness and adoption of cryptocurrency. We are proud to offer an entire suite of products that are helping build the cryptoeconomy and increase economic freedom around the world.
In 2012, Coinbase had the radical idea that anyone — anywhere — should be able to easily and securely access Bitcoin. We see cryptocurrency as the future of money and a catalyst for creating an open financial system around the world.Today, more than 43 million people* in over 100 countries trust Coinbase to buy, sell, store, use and earn cryptocurrency.
Our mission is to create an open financial system for the world.
An open financial system is one that is not controlled by any one country or company (just like the internet did for distributing information). We think this is the highest leverage way to bring about more economic freedom, innovation, efficiency, and equality of opportunity in the world. We have a ten year plan to get there.
Imagine if every payment in the world was as fast, cheap, and global as sending an email.
Imagine if anyone who had an idea for a product could have customers all over the world from day one.
Imagine if anyone with a smartphone had access to the same financial services we enjoy in the developed world.
An open financial system can be a great equalizer and lift billions out of poverty while accelerating the pace of innovation around the world. This is the best way we know to change the world.
Our Priorities
01. Be the most trusted
We filter all decisions through the question: "Will this make Coinbase the most trusted name in our space?" Trust is the sum of every customer interaction. It requires world-class security, compliance, technology, support, design, and more.
02. Be the easiest to use
Digital currency is a powerful technology — but its benefits are limited by how easy it is for people to use. We excel at making great products that bring the benefits of digital currency to everyone.
Coinbase Values
01. Clear communication
We share information efficiently, improving collaboration and productivity.
We’re succinct, candid, and kind.
We practice active listening.
We talk to people directly about issues, instead of concealing or choosing gossip.
02. Positive energy
We’re optimistic about the future and determined to get there.
We co-create solutions instead of choosing blame and criticism.
We create moments of play at work.
We take care of each other, and help each other grow.
03. Continuous learning
We see every situation as an opportunity to learn.
We’re more interested in learning than being right.
We value giving and receiving feedback.
We learn from and mentor those around us.
04. Efficient execution
We do our best work quickly by working smarter, not harder.
We value completing tasks, instead of just talking about them.
We prefer automation over manual work.
We prioritize, focusing on the 20% that will get us 80% of the impact.
