QUESTION
Does Coinbase display your name on transactions or to other users?
ANSWER
Coinbase, as a cryptocurrency exchange platform, maintains user privacy and security by not displaying personal name information to other users during transactions. When a user sends or receives cryptocurrency using Coinbase, the transaction is recorded on the public blockchain with the associated wallet addresses, not the names of the individuals involved. For added privacy, these addresses are usually alphanumeric strings that do not inherently contain any personal identifying information. However, within the Coinbase platform itself, transaction details will typically include the name of the recipient if sending funds internally to another Coinbase user via their registered email or username. External blockchain transactions remain pseudonymous.
