Coinbase just published an update that details an apparent change of heart on bitcoin cash: they’re working on supporting it by the start of 2018.
This means that if you have any bitcoin that you left in Coinbase’s hands during the hard fork a couple days ago, you’ll get your fair share of created bitcoin cash after all. Eventually, anyway—your bitcoin cash will be available to you whenever Coinbase officially launches support for the new coin in the coming months.
This is good news—Coinbase’s previous position no doubt left many of their customers feeling as though the popular exchange was openly stealing from them.
They crawfished pretty fast on that one eh?
