Coinbase Legal Chief Paul Grewal Plans Future Exit

Paul Grewal, the Chief Legal Officer and Secretary at Coinbase, has officially notified the company of his plans to step down. According to a recent filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, his final day in the role is scheduled for July 31, 2026.

This early notice gives the exchange plenty of time to prepare for the transition. The company plans to appoint Molly Abraham, who currently serves as vice president of legal, to step into the role once Grewal moves on.

Grewal has been a central figure in the firm during its ongoing legal battles with federal regulators. Investors will be watching how this transition impacts the exchange as it continues to manage complex litigation and changing industry rules.
