I received a notification of from bitlendingclub over a week ago for the change of name to loanbase.
Sound of their name name somewhat sounds like they are conected to coinbase
That was my first impression as well, but maybe we're both connecting dots that aren't there
No connection to Coinbase. In general we're more concerned about being connected to LendingClub than to Coinbase, there is the risk of brand confusion is much greater there.
