You’d need to prove harm, which is somewhat nebulous here.*
Matt Levine has a prescient and depressing quote about the only recourse for being being shareholder lawsuits:
> I find all of this so weird because of how it elevates finance. [Various cases] imply that we are not entitled to be protected from pollution as citizens, or as humans. [Another] implies that we are not entitled to be told the truth as citizens. (Which: is true!) Rather, in each case, we are only entitled to be protected from lies as
shareholders. The great harm of pollution, or of political dishonesty, is that it might lower the share prices of the companies we own.
* To be clear, I don’t think it is nebulous, and you’re right to feel harmed. But, legally, I don’t know the harm in “they didn’t respond to my emails” after there’s no concrete damage.
I've never looked at the Coinbase agreement that's presented when you open an account, but chances are you would have to go through arbitration first. That's not necessarily a bad thing.
I would consider it but I'm not sure what my options are on this.

Were you harmed?
