  To create an account and use Coinbase, you must be at least 18 years old. Coinbase requires users to verify their identity, and this process typically involves providing a valid government-issued ID. Minors are not allowed to use Coinbase due to legal and regulatory requirements. It's important to note that Coinbase takes compliance seriously and strives to maintain a secure and trusted platform for its users.

  You need to be 18 years old or older to use Coinbase. This age requirement is in place to comply with legal regulations and ensure the security of the platform. Coinbase follows strict Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) procedures to prevent fraud and maintain a safe environment for its users. If you're under 18, you'll have to wait until you meet the age requirement to use Coinbase.

  According to Coinbase's terms of service, the minimum age requirement to use their platform is 18 years old. This is a common age requirement among cryptocurrency exchanges to comply with legal regulations and prevent potential misuse of the platform. If you're under 18, you'll need to wait until you reach the minimum age to create an account and use Coinbase. However, there are other platforms that cater specifically to younger users, so you may want to explore those options in the meantime.
