Kat (@CryptoCreep10) reported@Jonesy5464 @brt2412 @BitcoinTeacher_ How are these layers on top going to cover bitcoins security budget if only the opening and closing of channels generate fees for bitcoin base layer? What is the plan several halvings down the line when the coinbase rewards dry up ?

Liberty Swap ⚡️ Bridge2Pulse™️ Zero-Fee DEX (@LibertySwapFi) reported@FlickyMcDicky Currently, fees and other income from every chain and product are moving to PulseChain to bid PCOCK on PulseChain. Fees from fiat on/off-ramp are designed to do the same, but Coinbase is slow. We will replace them completely. No point wasting time with them.

Alok Shukla (@Alok7765) reportedI have been posting about the quantum threat to crypto for a while and I know some people think it is too early to worry about Coinbase just published a position paper with researchers from Stanford, Ethereum Foundation and UT Austin saying the exact same thing Wallet signatures are vulnerable, 6.9 million BTC is already in an exposed category, and upgrading decentralized networks takes years so the time to act is now Every major chain is at a different stage, Bitcoin has no committed plan, Ethereum has a roadmap, all of them face the same massive coordination challenge of getting millions of users to migrate @quipnetwork sidesteps that entire problem, it works on existing chains today without waiting for any protocol to make a decision, no migration, no complicated steps, just quantum resistant protection on top of what you already have Coinbase needed a committee of researchers to confirm the threat is real, @quipnetwork already built the answer $QUIP

BITTY•THE•BITCOIN•MASCOT (@BittyRunes) reportedJanuary 3, 2009, 18:15:05 UTC. Satoshi Nakamoto mined the Genesis Block. Reward: 50 BTC. Those coins can never be spent. Not because the private keys were lost, but because the coinbase transaction was never added to the UTXO set. But Satoshi left a message in the block: “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks” One sentence. No manifesto. No roadmap. No token sale. Just a quiet response to a broken financial system and an alternative that requires no trust. 16 years later, the system is still running. Every 10 minutes. Relentless.

PILTR (@Nico_pltrs) reported$BTC Order flow Many misread this exact situation. It’s not just “perp CVD spiking” and the market must go up What actually happened: > Spot and perps both moved higher > Perps did it more aggressively > OI stayed flat > Funding shifted slightly positive > Coinbase premium remained stable 1. Both sides buying - but not equally > Spot is participating > Perps are pushing harder 2. The key issue: OI didn’t expand > strong aggressive buying (CVD up) > but no increase in open interest -> no net new positioning This means: positions are being rotated / replaced -> not built 3. Why funding still rises Funding reflects imbalance, not size. > relatively more longs than shorts > funding turns positive -> even if total exposure doesn’t increase. It rather appears to be a "reshuffle of positioning" 4. What this tells you The move is real - but not backed by commitment (for now) Perps create the push, spot provides some support, but: no OI expansion = no strong continuation signal Bottom line: > Both spot and perps are buying. > But without new positioning, it’s not a conviction-driven move. > Simplified: Aggression is there. Commitment isn’t What bulls want to see now: OI expansion on further upside -> confirmation of real positioning What bears want to see: failure to hold gains + rising OI on downside -> shorts gaining control

nikavc.bnb🔶 BNB (@BogiaBNBAster) reported@BinanceUS Does Binance US support this? My friend is Vietnamese, and he’s now married to a Vietnamese-American and has been living in the U.S. for 2 years. He wants to buy BTC through Binance US, but he told me that he can only deposit $500 per day—is that true? That seems quite inconvenient, right? Before, when he was in Vietnam, he only used Binance Global. But now that he’s settled in the U.S., he can’t use Binance Global anymore. Is there any way to deposit and withdraw more easily with Binance US? He really dislikes Coinbase and Robinhood because the fees are too high.

Money Code (@MoneyCodePod) reportedThe API key has powered developer infrastructure for decades. What if the wallet replaces it? Erik Reppel, Head of Engineering at @coinbase Developer Platform and creator of x402, explains how wallets, stablecoins and agentic finance could change the way software pays for services online. Instead of API keys, free tiers and subscriptions, agents could prove identity, make payments and access tools on a pay as you go basis. On Money Code, Erik breaks down x402 joining the Linux Foundation, why open payment standards matter, how stablecoins enable micropayments, and what agentic commerce could mean for the next era of financial infrastructure.

Andy Smith (@AndySmith212) reportedDon’t know I wasent alive in 1933. But in 1933 you still had access to your cash and you could still use it to buy things. I’m not saying they flip a switch and Bitcoin dies tomorrow. I’m saying the average person who holds his BTC on Coinbase or in a phone wallet is ****** the second the pipes get cut. Your satellite dish and ham radio stack won’t save Karen from Starbucks who just wants to buy groceries. ‘Decentralized’ sounds cool until the only people who can still move it are the guys with $10k setups and diesel generators. The rest of the people are holding magic beans until the lights come back on.

nooman (@n01man) reportedran on-chain flows on $SERV today zero labeled CEX hot wallets in the top 50 holders on Base zero. not one biggest holder is a Uniswap CL pool. after that it's Metamask and Coinbase smart wallets all the way down actual retail, on-chain no team multisig dominance. no exchange overhang. no one pre-positioned to dump at this market cap, that's almost unheard of could mean nobody cares yet. could mean the float is structurally tight in a way nobody's pricing in either way, this is one of the cleanest holder structures I've seen on Base in months most people will never bother looking

Ryan Dunner (@ryandunner9) reported@coinbase @CoinbaseSupport I got a new phone number and do not have access to my old one. I am locked out of my account and cannot access my Coinbase credit card to make a payment. Why are you guys forcing me to use the old number or the old device (which I do not have access to) to verify my identity. I uploaded selfie and ID.

LiquidityHunter (@pashuto81) reported@TedPillows $78k broken, Coinbase premium positive, and now staring at $80k resistance. If we reclaim $80k, that CME gap at $84k fills within 48 hours. I mapped the exact path on my profile.

QubitValue (@QubitValue) reportedThe blockchain industry's quantum reckoning isn't a question of if, but when. And the migration might take longer than the timeline itself. A new position paper convened by Coinbase lays out the challenge in stark terms. A quantum computer capable of breaking the elliptic-curve cryptography that secures major blockchains will eventually be built. The machine doesn't exist yet, as major engineering leaps remain, but the cryptographic migration needed to survive it will take years, making later an increasingly expensive word. Key takeaways worth understanding: - The real vulnerability isn't mining, it's signatures. Proof-of-work mechanisms rely on hash functions that resist quantum speedups well enough. The danger lies in the digital signatures that authorize transactions, the lock on every wallet door. - The numbers are sobering. Roughly 6.9 million Bitcoin sit in wallets with exposed public keys, theoretically vulnerable once a capable machine arrives. About 1 million of those are concentrated in just 11 large addresses, serving as a canary in the quantum coal mine. - Post-quantum signatures come with serious baggage. A current signature is 64 bytes. Its post-quantum replacement under NIST standards balloons to 2,420 bytes or more, with proportional hits to throughput, fees, and storage. Naively swapping them in could cut transaction capacity by over 90%. - The proposed solution is elegant. A hybrid approach lets wallets register both a classical and a post-quantum key. Networks continue using the fast classical signature until the threat becomes real, then flip a network-wide switch. You build the lifeboat now, but only board it when you see the iceberg. - The hardest problem may not be technical at all. Networks must decide the fate of wallets whose owners are unreachable or have lost their keys. The panel outlines the uncomfortable choice of freezing unmigrated funds or leaving them as sitting ducks for a future quantum attacker. For famous early-era wallets, they propose rate-limiting movement to turn dormant coins into a quantum early warning system. - The broader industry is moving, but unevenly. Some networks have detailed roadmaps or executed post-quantum transactions, while others remain in the proposal stage. NIST recommends completing migration by 2035, signaling how seriously governments take the timeline. Every industry relying on public-key cryptography faces a version of this same challenge. Blockchain just happens to be one of the few domains where the assets at risk are visible, quantifiable, and impossible to patch retroactively. It serves as a live stress test for how any sector handles the quantum transition. Preparation is not premature when the cost of being late is irreversible #QuantumComputing

Anastasia Marchenkova (@amarchenkova) reportedThe Coinbase Independent Advisory Board on Quantum Computing and Blockchain dropped its first position paper last week First: A cryptographically-relevant quantum computer (CRQC) does not exist yet. But in the position: "We are not confident that CRQCs will not exist by 2035 or later" — note the careful double negative. NIST recommends PQ migration by 2035, but Google and Cloudflare moved deadlines to 2019. But, the board treats the exact-timeline debate as largely irrelevant since you should be preparing now regardless! What SHOULD the community be tracking? The lowest bar for quantum technologies could be Shor's algorithm, with nations pouring money into developing these systems, and the other applications becoming a by-product (which would be a bummer). The biggest concern I had since my earlier papers was "What do we do with the abandoned assets?" What do you do with assets nobody can migrate? Two bad obvious options: flag day (revoke them, lots of users with lost keys discover too late) or do nothing (a sitting honeypot funding whoever builds the first CRQC). The third option, novel to Bitcoin: the Hourglass spending rule. Cap P2PK output spending at 1 BTC per block. An attacker who breaks ECDSA can still loot, but slowly. I don't love it, tbh - but chains should continue this discussion. Authors: Aaronson (UT Austin), Boneh (Stanford), Drake (Ethereum Foundation), Kannan (Eigen Labs), Lindell (Coinbase/Bar-Ilan), and Malkhi (UCSB).

W00fer (@W00fer) reported@ringo_ring A few problems 1. This site is about open access. Open as in to everyone. Submitting various KYC procedures and TWO wallets (Phantom and Coinbase or Stripe) isn't a good thing. 2. What happens with all the transaction fees? Cash to SOL and SOL to SCI. Waste of resources?
