Could you please elaborate on why Coinbase decides to put a hold on users' balances? I've recently noticed this happening with my account and I'm curious about the reasons behind this practice. Is it a standard security measure or are there specific factors that trigger this action? I'm particularly interested in understanding if this is a common occurrence and what steps Coinbase takes to ensure that the holds are justified and lifted as soon as possible. Any clarification would be greatly appreciated. Why does Coinbase put a hold on my balance?

One such reason is when they suspect suspicious activity associated with your account.

Specifically, Coinbase may contact the bank associated with the card you used to fund your account.

This could be due to unusual transaction patterns or potentially fraudulent behavior.

They do this to ensure that the card is not being used without the cardholder's knowledge or approval.
