  It would be trivial to reduce the trust weight for pleb bitcoiners and supplant Bitcoin knowledge with ads for Coinbase/etc. But paid search has never compromised good results to make ad money. Right? From a dude working on this for two years. Just tryna get ppl to listen.

  @Hanakookie1 @krakenfx @coinbase he may know some things but many custodians using single points of failure requires some public disclosure or verification, no? isn't that the problem we need to overcome here. lets open source what we're doing, especially the largest houses.

  @nic_carter @ZynxBTC Yup, stuck with Coinbase, I maid a **** load of money, even when they got hacked, they would be the ones to absorb the hit. Why you’d want to not store your crypto with Coinbase is beyond me. Unless you’re doing crime or something.

  And to think that many of these losses happened on exchanges. The difference is that in most major CEX hacks or security breaches, users are reimbursed and don’t end up losing everything. But don’t listen to people who claim that using a wallet like MetaMask, Rabby, or even a hardware wallet is somehow easier or safer for the average person. You have to keep track of a device, make sure you don’t lose it, never forget your seed phrase, bridge assets between chains, understand transactions, and avoid signing a malicious smart contract. The reality is that even experienced crypto users and even software developers—can accidentally sign a scam transaction and lose access to their funds. In my opinion, every wallet currently available is still far too complicated for the average person. That’s why my opinion hasn’t changed. If you spread your funds across several major centralized exchanges for example, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Kraken, and Coinbase, with around 20% of your portfolio on each you significantly reduce the risk of losing everything. Even if one of those exchanges were to fail, losing 20% would be far less devastating than losing your entire portfolio. Even though I’m not a fan of CZ, I think his comment on this post is absolutely valid.

  @Fredvelezcrypto Nope. I bought in a year before the Coinbase listing. 14x. Now it got rugged like a generic **** coin. Had potential though!

  @KevinWa50091906 I came across your post about your Coinbase account being emptied in an instant. That must have been incredibly frustrating, especially after being told it was your fault. The transaction details may still support recovery efforts. I can examine the available records and help work toward recovering the stolen assets.

  coinbase biggest money printer is the thing they look down on blockchain rewards are their largest revenue segment > 13 straight quarters at number one > bigger than their stablecoin business > bigger than interest income what drives base activity? degens trading memecoins and tech coins (trenches) the same people coinbase leadership treats like a nuisance in every earnings call, yet base processed $32 trillion in stablecoin transfers last year you don't get to farm degens for volume and act like you're above them

  Everyone talks about crypto cards. Almost nobody understands the payment stack behind them. When you tap your crypto card, there are multiple companies working together behind the scenes. Here's how the stablecoin payment stack actually works 👇 1/ Stablecoin Issuer This is where the money originates. Companies like Circle (USDC), Tether (USDT), Paxos (PYUSD & other issuances), and Ripple (RLUSD) issue the stablecoins that power the ecosystem. Without stablecoins, there are no stablecoin payments. 2/ Wallet Your wallet stores and moves your stablecoins. Examples include MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom, Bitget Wallet, and Trust Wallet. This is where users interact with their funds. 3/ Payment Infrastructure This layer is invisible to most users, but it's arguably the most valuable. Infrastructure providers help wallets, fintechs, and businesses launch payment products without building everything from scratch. Examples include: • Bridge (stablecoin payments infrastructure) • BVNK (stablecoin payment infrastructure for businesses) • Mesh (wallet and payment connectivity) • Alchemy Pay (crypto-fiat payment rails) • Brale (stablecoin infrastructure) • Stripe (stablecoin financial infrastructure and APIs) As the industry matures, this layer is becoming the real battleground. 4/ Card Issuer This is the company that makes your crypto card possible. Examples include Rain, Nium, Immersve, Baanx, and Kulipa. They bridge your stablecoins with traditional card networks so your card can work almost anywhere. No issuer = no crypto card. 5/ Payment Networks Visa and Mastercard don't issue most crypto cards. Instead, they provide the global payment rails that connect your card to millions of merchants worldwide. Rather than competing with stablecoins, they're increasingly building infrastructure to support them. 6/ Merchant Finally, you make a purchase. The merchant gets paid through the existing card network, while your stablecoins are converted and settled behind the scenes. To the merchant, it often looks like a normal card payment. The simplified flow looks like this: Stablecoin Issuer → Wallet → Payment Infrastructure → Card Issuer → Visa/Mastercard → Merchant Every company in this chain creates value in a different way. The biggest takeaway? Most people focus on the card. I think the biggest winners over the next few years won't necessarily be the companies with the flashiest cards. They'll be the companies building the infrastructure that every future crypto card depends on. Follow along if you're interested in the future of stablecoin payments.

  @NicoCabrera92 He pulled it to get banking license for Coinbase to go around the yield issue

  @KeysNCoins @APompliano I'm not saying self-custody is impossible. What I mean by myth is that all the insiders have sold the idea that self-custody is the way to mass adoption. It never will lead to that. There are far greater risks to self-custody than something like Coinbase for the average person.

  @BTC_JEDI21 One time a long long time ago, a Bitcoin coinbase issuance bug caused a chain stoppage and rollback. It issued more coins than the supply allowed in one overflow issue, I think. But… I know what you are saying and I am not trying to detract from that message.

  @chainlank WTF Poor bastard would have been better leaving it on coinbase with a physical hardware device / physical key needed

  The timeline is blaming weak Coinbase earnings and AI stock sell-offs for Bitcoin dipping below $63K today. Macro noise is great for headlines, but it doesn't pay you. The only thing that matters is if $BTC can defend the $62,500 support level before Monday's US open.

  @Molson_Hart The real problem is “trust me, bro” influencers pushing people into self-custody they don’t understand. For those unwilling or unable to study it, Coinbase is a totally safe option.

  @Credib1eGuy Always get shouted down for saying it, but for 95%+ of participants it is safer to keep crypto on kraken/coinbase or in ETFs. Most people sadly have a much higher chance of losing their crypto by ******* up self custody than losing it via a reputable custodian
