It's more likely you didn't "lose" $1k, but that you had "missed profits". And if you missed the profits because you didn't verify yourself earlier for withdrawal, then that's on you.

Coinbase supported direct bank withdrawals well before they launched their crypto debit cards.

Your profits are your profits. Coinbase can hold them until you verify yourself for withdrawals, but they can't just take them.
