    Unfortunately, Coinbase does not currently offer an interest-earning feature for digital currency holdings. However, there are other platforms and decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols that provide opportunities to earn interest on your digital assets. It's worth exploring these options to maximize the potential returns on your holdings.

    No, Coinbase does not function as a bank and therefore does not provide interest on digital currency holdings. However, Coinbase offers other services such as buying, selling, and storing digital currencies securely. If you're looking to earn interest, you may want to consider alternative platforms or DeFi protocols that specialize in providing interest-earning opportunities for digital assets.

    While Coinbase itself does not offer interest on digital currency holdings, there are third-party platforms like BYDFi that allow you to earn interest on your digital assets. These platforms operate independently from Coinbase and provide various options for earning interest, such as lending your digital assets to other users. It's important to do your own research and assess the risks associated with these platforms before participating.
