The state lifted its order against Coinbase's staking service, which had been off-limits to New Jersey residents since June 2023 New Jersey has dropped its staking lawsuit against Coinbase and lifted the order that kept residents out of the exchange’s staking program. Users in the Garden State should be able to start staking again soon. They’ve been locked out since June 6, 2023. The cost of that pause was real. New Jersey users are estimated to have missed out on at least $15 million in staking rewards while the order was in effect. The fight started in 2023.
