Notice of 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders

April 24, 2026

Dear Shareholders:

We invite you to attend the 2026 annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Coinbase Global, Inc., a Texas corporation, which will be held virtually on Tuesday, June 16, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Pacific Time. You can attend the Annual Meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/COIN2026, where you will be able to listen to the meeting live and vote your shares online during the meeting, just as you could at an in-person meeting. We believe that a virtual shareholder meeting is aligned with our values as a remote-first company and enables participation from our global community.

We will hold the Annual Meeting for the following purposes, which are more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”):

1. To elect Brian Armstrong, Marc L. Andreessen, Christa Davies, Frederick Ernest Ehrsam III, Kelly A. Kramer, Chris Lehane, Tobias Lütke, Gokul Rajaram, and Fred Wilson to serve until our 2027 annual meeting of shareholders or until such director’s successor is duly elected and qualified; and

2. To ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2026.

We will also consider any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof. At this time, we are not aware of any other matters to be submitted for consideration at the Annual Meeting.

Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on April 21, 2026 as the record date for the Annual Meeting. Only shareholders of record on April 21, 2026 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Annual Meeting. A list of shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available upon request for examination for ten (10) days prior to the day of the Annual Meeting by contacting us via email at investor@coinbase.com. Further information regarding voting rights, the matters to be voted upon and instructions to attend the Annual Meeting is presented in the Proxy Statement.

The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials containing instructions on how to access the Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Annual Report”) is first being mailed on or about April 24, 2026 to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You will be asked to enter the 16-digit control number located on your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, your proxy card or the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials to attend the Annual Meeting.

Every shareholder vote is important. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please cast your vote as soon as possible by internet, telephone or mail to ensure your shares will be represented. Your vote by written proxy will ensure your representation at the Annual Meeting regardless of whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting. Returning the proxy does not affect your right to attend the Annual Meeting and to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. For additional instructions on attending the Annual Meeting or voting your shares, please refer to the section titled “Questions and Answers About the Proxy Materials and Our Annual Meeting” in the Proxy Statement.

Thank you for your ongoing support and continued interest in Coinbase.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

Paul Grewal

Chief Legal Officer & Secretary
