  @dangambardello @brian_armstrong Coinbase will support Bitcoin assets like $DOG but don't hold your breath FYI terminology-wise $DOG is the #1 'token' on Bitcoin (it isn't a coin)

  Bell was backed by Fairshake’s $134M bipartisan 2024 effort, funded by crypto industry players including Coinbase, Ripple, and a16z, to support candidates seen as more favorable and friendly io institutional crypto players. Hope this heips, buddy.

  @brian_armstrong i can’t imagine anywhere i’d rather trade stocks less than on coinbase…the home of high fees and absurdly bad customer service

  Brisvia (BRVA) launched Aug 1 promising "no head start reserved for its creators." The first 594 blocks went to a single address. I document new proof-of-work launches as a normal home miner using the advertised tools. Here's what five days of receipts show. First, what checked out. The builds are legitimate. I verified the 1.1.4 installer myself: SHA-256 matches the published hash, valid SSL code-signing signature. My antivirus flagged the in-app updater. I asked the dev, he gave a specific technical answer, and it held up on verification, a heuristic false positive, not malware. The chain started on time: no blocks exist before 15:00 UTC. Difficulty ramped exactly as designed (block 1: 0.0002441 → block 518: 0.001777). This is a real chain and the supply-chain handling was serious. Credit where it's earned. What the chain shows. I walked the explorer block by block from genesis. Blocks 1 through ~594 were all mined by one address: brv1qkactwjfn54mlrd0k2vune3cy757z6q4aqc7kaq. Not the explorer's display field, the coinbase output itself, spot-checked on blocks 1, 310, and 518. That's consensus data, not an interpretation. Other addresses don't appear until ~595. Broad multi-miner activity doesn't start until ~687. What everyone else got. At launch, the advertised paths didn't work. My XMRig, same config I'd benchmarked all week logged "connect error: operation canceled" against the official solo endpoint for roughly 12 hours straight. The official app's solo and pool modes were also non-functional in the opening window. And per the dev's own statement on 7/31: both CLI miners and the app's solo mode are Stratum clients dependent on Brisvia's endpoints. Mining against your own node "is not officially supported yet." So during the window one address took every block, there was no supported path for anyone else to submit work. One more gap. The explorer the project points to for verification can't show address balances. "No address API is configured." You can see who mined each block. You cannot check what any address holds. What I did about it. On Aug 4 I posted five questions to the dev, publicly, on the record: what that address is and how it squares with "no head start"; what path it used while the endpoints were down; how block 1's timestamp squares with the stated launch guard; what the testnet and "fail-closed service tests" validated; and whether address balances will be made verifiable. He'd answered technical questions promptly when he had answers. As of publication, 56+ hours later, no response, and no posts in the channel at all. I can't tell you who owns that address. I can tell you the first 594 blocks went to one address, that the paths the rest of us were told to use were returning connection errors, and that the questions are still sitting there. The site says: "Don't trust a promise. Verify the launch." I did. I hold a small amount of BRVA I mined. Coverage, not endorsement. Positions disclosed. DYOR.

  @SimplyBitcoin Honestly, I keep mine on Coinbase and it hasn't had an issue. 98% is kept offline in cold storage and if it's hacked, they have insurance for it. They don't recover used based errors, (falling for phishing scams) so I really don't see an issue here. I see an issue if you are using unknown and not vetted exchanges but not for the big players. Being not FDIC insured is a concern but as long as you know what you're doing, you'll be just fine.

  @marc02200 Coinbase. I'm also Europe and the KYC is of course obligatory. Been with them for a long time. Never had any real problem with them converting Fiat or Trading or sending.

  @zerohedge Under the current revenue-sharing arrangement, Coinbase keeps all interest income from USDC reserves held on its platform, and half of income from USDC held elsewhere. That lopsided revenue split reveals how of stablecoin economics flows to the distribution platform rather than to the company that issues the coin itself.

  Probably going to stop using the Coinbase One credit card altogether for two reasons: • Refunds trigger a BTC purchase: If a merchant issues you a refund, Coinbase applies a "Reward Adjustment" by charging you for the Bitcoin reward you previously received. For example, if you made a $5,000 purchase (hypothetically), earned 4% back in BTC, and then received a full refund, you'd be charged $200 to buy that BTC back. With most cashback or points cards, they simply reverse the rewards. Here, you're effectively forced to purchase Bitcoin at Coinbase's market price on that day. I use limit orders on other exchanges with lower fees, so I don't want to be required to buy BTC this way. I called customer support twice and just got bounced between departments. No resolution. • Incorrect finance charges: My June statement included two finance charges that shouldn't have been there. Customer support confirmed they were an error, but I only caught it because I happened to review my statement. It's worth checking your statements as well. This isn't the experience I expected from a Coinbase One AMEX card that comes with an annual fee. What cards do people suggest? I'm looking at the Robhinhood credit card next.

  JUST IN: 🇰🇵 A cybersecurity researcher infiltrates North Korean systems, exposing 1,640 breached global companies. Vangelis Stykas spent 22 months monitoring command-and-control servers, identifying 700 to 800 highly damaging enterprise intrusions. The operators prioritized finding cryptocurrency wallets, systematically stealing developer keys and AWS root access from infected devices. Hackers compromised external engineers using fake job interviews, impacting organizations like Coinbase $COIN, Uniswap Labs, and Boston Children’s Hospital. "For crypto companies, it’s keys, it’s blockchain access—it’s ridiculous access." — Vangelis Stykas Companies spend millions on perimeter defense, but it doesn't matter when remote contractors simply download malware just to pass a fake coding interview.

  @coinbase @karacalvert @BBGMedia Mainstream adoption will probably be driven less by speculation and more by stablecoins, payments, financial access, and applications that hide the underlying blockchain complexity. The winning products may be the ones where users barely notice they are using crypto.
