Why this grade
- ✓ Regulation
Issued by Coinbase — a US-regulated, NYDFS-chartered, NASDAQ-listed company. A meaningful trust upgrade over a pure-DeFi protocol with no regulator. Source →
- ✓ Proof-of-Reserves
cbETH is an on-chain ERC-20 with a publicly published exchange rate, and Coinbase runs a reserves/attestation programme — though a formal cbETH-specific PoR feed is limited. Source →
- ✓ Flexible withdrawal
Redeemable for ETH (standard Beacon-chain exit queue, ~days) and tradeable on-chain with decent DEX liquidity. Source →
- ✗ Insurance Fund
No dedicated slashing-insurance fund. Coinbase carries a commercial crime policy for hot-wallet theft but explicitly disclaims reimbursement for slashing. Source →
- ✓ Track record (2+ years incident-free)
No hack or exploit. A persistent slight discount vs ETH (less liquid than stETH) and a minor external oracle incident, but no depeg event. Source →
