WikiLeaks boycotting
This account closure does not mean that the site can not accept crypto currencies. Only WikiLeaks will no longer receive payments through Coinbase's system.

The movement also upset its organization and its supporters. The official WikiLeaks account on Twitter was in a boycott call for the stock exchange next week.

It is not clear how the situation will end, but it is not hard to imagine that the accounts on cryptographic currencies will continue to be debated.
