I don't think this is black rock, the address is a P2WPKH address which coinbase does not use.
Maybe it's a central bank 👀
Thanks, for some reason, I thought that the huge increase in segwit transactions in February 2018 was Coinbase rolling out native segwit support, but alas after much search, I found that it only ever was wrapped segwit.

Which then seems to imply that Coinbase either never rolled out segwit support broadly, or did next to no segwit transactions altogether? https://imgprxy.stacker.news/Cb7A44vil1Z6r8iZgE-QWZq7-JQiBKmGTl6cyGrTMfY/rs:fit:600:500:0/g:no/aHR0cHM6Ly9pLmltZ3VyLmNvbS9mM0E5cHZnLnBuZw

I think they use it for their hot wallets, but they don't use it for the coinbase custody product

Do you know whether it's wrapped or native segwit?

in this it looks like they are using native

Ah cool, thanks for finding that. This announcement is one year later, though, so maybe I was just confusing the year?

Interesting..
