I am wondering if Coinbase, the
cryptocurrency exchange platform, reports any transactions or user information to government authorities or regulatory bodies.

Coinbase is required to report to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for US users who earn over $600 in rewards or staking.

This reporting is done using Form 1099-MISC, which is a specific tax form used for reporting miscellaneous income.

As a result, taxpayers who use Coinbase must ensure that they report all of their crypto income, regardless of whether it is covered by Coinbase's forms or not.

Failing to report all taxable income could result in penalties from the IRS, which is the governing tax authority in the United States.
