Supreme Court Rules Against Coinbase in Dogecoin Giveaway Dispute

最高法院在狗狗币赠品纠纷中裁定 Coinbase 败诉

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

消费者指控和合同纠纷

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 The Supreme Court declined to address whether the appeals court was correct in ruling that the sweepstakes contract superseded the user agreement.
