Supreme Court Rules Against Coinbase in Dogecoin Giveaway Dispute
最高法院在狗狗幣贈品糾紛中裁定 Coinbase 敗訴
The Supreme Court has ruled against Coinbase in a dispute over a dogecoin giveaway from 2021. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stated that a court, rather than an arbitrator, should determine which contract governs when there are multiple contracts in conflict. The ruling emphasized that arbitration is contingent on contract and consent, rejecting Coinbase's argument that it would lead to chaos.

Consumer Allegations and Contractual Disputes
消費者指控和合約糾紛
Consumers alleged that they were misled into paying $100 to enter the sweepstakes. While a general user agreement required arbitration, a sweepstakes-specific contract stipulated that disputes must be brought in California courts. The Supreme Court declined to address whether the appeals court was correct in ruling that the sweepstakes contract superseded the user agreement.
消費者聲稱他們被誤導而支付 100 美元參加抽獎活動。雖然一般使用者協議需要仲裁,但抽獎特定合約規定爭議必須提交加州法院。最高法院拒絕討論上訴法院關於抽獎合約取代用戶協議的裁決是否正確。
