Fact Check
The assessment is based on two highly authoritative and relevant primary sources from the official Coinbase blog. The first source is a direct announcement of a service named 'Custom Stablecoins' for businesses, which directly supports the statement about a service for enterprise stablecoin issuance. A second official blog post, while on a different topic, corroborates this information by including a snippet that confirms the launch. These two pieces of evidence are direct, consistent, and come from the most credible source possible—the company itself. The remaining sources have very low relevance; they discuss unrelated products, future investment ideas, or asset tokenization in the context of other platforms (like Tezos or XRP), and therefore do not contradict the primary findings. Given the strong, corroborated evidence from official announcements and the absence of any conflicting information, the statement is determined to be highly likely true.
Summary

Coinbase has launched an enterprise-grade custom stablecoin issuance service, allowing businesses to create branded stablecoins fully backed 1:1 by USD-pegged assets such as USDC. These reserves are held in Coinbase custody and supported by audited, regulated infrastructure that safeguards over $300 billion in assets. The initiative targets corporate adoption of blockchain-based payment and financial solutions while ensuring compliance and transparency.
