The U.S. government has asked the Supreme Court to dismiss a @Coinbase user’s challenge related to a 2016 IRS tax probe. The legal argument centers around whether records held by crypto platforms like Coinbase are protected under the Fourth Amendment.

Courts previously ruled that such financial data are considered business records—not personal property—thus exempt from warrant requirements. The case has major implications for how privacy rights apply to crypto transactions.

Will the Supreme Court revisit digital privacy rights in crypto investigations?
