  Coinbase and Better opened Bitcoin backed mortgages to the general public this week, after more than $260 million of projected volume came off the waitlist. You pledge coins at 250% of the down payment loan, so $100,000 of Bitcoin covers $40,000 down, and price moves alone do not trigger liquidation. Only sixty days of missed payments do. The first lien is an ordinary conforming mortgage. That is the part that matters, because the housing finance system processed this without being asked to change.

  Most people still treat $WALLET like another low-cap bet. That’s a mistake. Robinhood Chain is being built as a settlement layer for tokenized stocks, not as a meme playground. Before public access, the same stack that later showed up in the $WALLET deployer trail was already wiring oracles, liquidity routing, stable settlement, and programmable issuance. Chainlink, Paxos, LiFi, Alchemy, Arbitrum, Coinbase-adjacent infra. Not vibes. Plumbing. That matters because a wallet token on that chain is not competing with another cat coin. It sits at the interface layer: accounts, execution, routing, and the product people actually open. If RH Chain wins even a slice of tokenized equities flow, the primitive closest to “how users hold and move it” gets re-rated first. On-chain the picture is still early: tight holder base, weeks of absorption instead of a one-candle pump, liquidity building while most of crypto is still arguing about whether the narrative is “real.” This is still a thesis, not a guarantee. But the asymmetry is simple: cheap option on Robinhood turning onchain brokerage into programmable markets. CA: 0x0339f5459FC690aC85F1782e15782A151b4A9E1b

  @tonyler_ @coinbase I wonder if this is partly because Coinbase doesn’t want to use delegated customer voting power to push its own position. If so, that’s actually a pretty interesting governance choice.

  @base How could shares in VeVe be tokenized after NASDAQ listing? What is stopping @coinbase from listing their $OMI token? Seems like it would be great to be able to trade between the two. Seems like a perfect combination with @FosterHilt working on the OMI utility program.

  @danmall I have a product that would love old retail investment (age 50+). It's on chain, and in the crypto world (age <35). Very different places in life. Different purpose for investing. It's designed for the former, yet, likely only consumed by the latter, with no data showing sentiment either direction. Designing for both, feels...impossible. One has money, one has interest, neither have both whereas both interest AND money are likely required. Dead product, or, would one lead to the other. Who would I start with? Education is not something that is likely possible. I could cite case studies from Coinbase, et. al. Time is on my side, most likely. We feel early to the game, skating to where the puck is headed. Hard to form exact questions, mostly just data points on why this is hard.

  ONE SHARE OF STRATEGY $MSTR COSTS $137.26 AND CARRIES $174.59 OF BITCOIN: Strategy MSTR at $137.26 (premarket), -$0.14 / -0.10% from Thursday's $137.40 close. Hold that one loosely; almost nothing trades at four in the morning. Thursday was the real vote and it was violent: $123.19 to $137.40, +$14.21 / +11.53%, on 43.78M shares against a 23.23M 30-day average, about 188% of a normal day. Bitcoin rose about 2% that day. Two percent against eleven and a half. That gap is not magic and it is not a mystery. It is $22.2B of other people's claims sitting between this company's bitcoin and the person who owns its stock, and it works exactly as hard in the other direction. WHERE THE COINS ARE - Bitcoin, ticker BTC, at $79,821, +0.03% over the past 24 hours. Three hundredths of one percent. Back under $80,000 after trading above it earlier this week. - Ethereum, ticker ETH, the second-largest cryptocurrency, at $2,499, -0.98% over the past 24 hours. Bitcoin doing nothing for a full day is worth noticing, given what the last ten days looked like. WHAT ACTUALLY STARTED THIS Two real drivers, and the first one has nothing to do with crypto. On Wednesday, August 19, the U.S. Treasury said it would at least double the amount of long-dated government bonds it buys back from investors, from $2B to $4B per operation, across the 10-to-20-year and 20-to-30-year maturities, running September 9 to November 4. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the next day it could go past that $4B ceiling, and framed it as keeping trading orderly rather than forcing borrowing costs down. The everyday version: the government stepped in to buy its own debt. Some investors read that as the start of holding borrowing costs down by other means, and the reflex hedge against that is anything no government can make more of. Bitcoin rose more than 20% in three days from that week, and more than $3B of bets that the price would fall were force-closed on August 19 alone. When a bet against the price gets closed out, the exchange closes it by buying, which pushes the price up further. The second driver is fund buying. A spot ETF owns the real thing: it buys bitcoin, holds it, and splits the pile into shares that trade in an ordinary brokerage account, with no wallet and no password to lose. US spot bitcoin funds have now taken in new money for eight trading days running, $2.8B in total, the longest streak since April, and August has cleared $3B to become the strongest month of 2026. Ether's funds drew $697M in the week of August 17-21, their best week since early October 2025. Then the counterweight, published Wednesday. The Bureau of Economic Analysis released the personal consumption expenditures price index for July, the inflation gauge the Federal Reserve watches most closely because it tracks what people actually buy. It ran 3.7% above a year earlier, unchanged from June and hotter than the 3.6% economists expected; month to month +0.2% against +0.1% expected. Crypto stalled on it, and the odds of the Fed leaving rates alone at its September 16 meeting rose from 60% to 63% in a day. Which is why tonight is flat. At 10:00am ET today, Friday August 28, Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh gives his first keynote as chair at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City's symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Bitcoin pays no interest, so the more a savings account pays, the more it costs to hold a coin that pays nothing. Everything above is waiting on that. THE ARITHMETIC INSIDE STRATEGY Strategy is a Tysons Corner, Virginia company founded in 1989, with 1,539 employees and Phong Q. Le as chief executive. What it does now is borrow money, sell shares, and hold bitcoin with the proceeds. On August 24 it reported holding 840,447 bitcoin, roughly 4% of every bitcoin that exists, bought at an average price of $75,385. Multiply that out at tonight's price and the pile is worth about $67.09B. It cost about $63.36B. Years of buying, and the whole position is ahead by roughly $3.73B, about 5.9%. Bitcoin would have to fall to $75,385 for the average coin in that vault to be worth what was paid for it. Now set the pile against the company. Market cap, meaning one share's price multiplied by every share in existence, is about $52.79B across 384.23M shares. $52.79B of shares. $67.09B of bitcoin. The market is charging about 79 cents for a dollar of the coins in the box. That looks like a free lunch. It is not, because of what comes next. WHAT STANDS IN FRONT OF YOU Strategy did not buy that bitcoin with shareholders' money alone. It carries $6.7B of convertible notes, borrowed money the lender can swap for shares instead of taking repayment, and $15.5B of preferred stock at face value, a senior class of shares paid its dividend before the ordinary shareholder gets anything at all. $22.2B of claims, all of them in line ahead of you. Per share, at tonight's numbers: - Bitcoin behind one share: $174.59. - Claims standing ahead of that share: $57.78. - What is left: $116.81. - What the share costs: $137.26. So the 79 cents flips. Measured against the bitcoin that genuinely belongs to the shareholder, you are paying about $1.18 for a dollar of it. Both numbers are true. They are the same company counted before and after the queue. Two honest qualifications. The preferred does not all trade at face value, and the company has been buying it back below face, $136.4M for 1.43M of its STRC preferred shares in the week to August 23, which quietly shifts value from the queue to the shareholder. And the convertible notes may end as shares rather than cash, which clears the debt by creating more owners. WHY THE AMPLIFIER IS NOT A FIXED NUMBER $67.09B of bitcoin resting on the $44.89B that belongs to shareholders is about 1.5 to 1. Arithmetic alone says a 1% move in bitcoin should be worth roughly 1.5% here. Check that against three real stretches, using the bitcoin fund below as the stand-in for the coin: - Thursday: fund +1.87%, Strategy +11.53%. Six times. - Since August 18, the day before the Treasury announcement: fund +23.74%, Strategy +48.51%. Twice. - From their June lows: fund +37.91%, Strategy +67.95%. Under twice. Over weeks the multiple settles near the arithmetic. Over a single day it is whatever the crowd feels like paying for the wrapper. Two separate things move this stock: the price of bitcoin, and the price of the box the bitcoin sits in. Only one of them is bitcoin. THE WEEK THAT DID NOT MAKE HEADLINES Between August 17 and 23, Strategy sold 18.26M of its own shares and raised $2B. $300M went to a restricted reserve, $136.4M to the preferred buyback above, and $1.59B into a new unrestricted pool the company calls USD Cash. Total dollar liquidity afterwards: $6.69B. None of it bought bitcoin. The company has not bought a coin since June. So the coin count stayed at 840,447 while the number of people splitting it rose by 18.26M shares against about 384M outstanding, roughly one extra owner for every twenty-one. The bitcoin behind each share shrank by about that same 4.8%, in a week when the price of bitcoin barely moved. Nothing was hidden and nothing was taken; it was filed. It is simply the opposite of what most buyers think they are getting. THREE WAYS TO WATCH THIS FROM A BROKERAGE ACCOUNT - iShares Bitcoin Trust IBIT at $45.22 (premarket), -$0.07 / -0.15% from Thursday's $45.29 close. It holds coins and does nothing else, about $61.7B of them, which makes the fund larger than the company above. It charges 0.25% a year, roughly 11 cents per share, and that fee is the entire difference between it and the coin. Thursday's +1.87% against bitcoin's roughly 2% is the fund doing precisely the job printed on it. It sits 37.0% under the $71.82 it reached on October 6, 2025 and 37.7% above the $32.84 it traded at on June 25. - Strategy, above. - Coinbase Global at $189.51 (premarket), -$1.21 / -0.64% from Thursday's $190.72 close. The largest US crypto exchange: customers buy and sell coins there and it takes a fee on each trade. New York, founded 2012, about 4,951 employees, Brian Armstrong is chief executive. It holds no bitcoin pile on your behalf. It owns the toll booth. Thursday: +$8.94 / +4.92% on 9.24M shares against a 9.60M average, an entirely ordinary day's participation. Worth about $50.33B, it sits 52.9% under the $402.16 it reached on October 10, 2025 and 36.2% above the $139.11 low it set on July 31. Three wrappers, three different things owned. Coins. Coins minus a queue. A business paid when other people trade coins. WHERE THESE SIT ON THE LEN5ES Strategy is on none of the six, and one miss is more fundamental than the rest. The Len5es read operating businesses: what a company earns, what it grows, what it hands to owners. Strategy's last year of profit is a loss, and its 1.48 times book value, roughly what would be left after selling everything and paying what is owed, is a claim on a pile of coins rather than on anything the business does. Quality-Value and Deep-Value and Special-Situations both want a fair price standing beside a durable business, and there is no earning power under this price to call durable or cheap; money earned from an activity, rather than from an asset it happens to hold, is the specific change. Growth and Hypergrowth want compounding you are not overpaying for, and the only thing compounding here is a coin price nobody at this company sets. Momentum is the closest and still misses on cause: 11.53% on 188% of normal volume is exactly that shape, but the event was bitcoin clearing $80,000, not anything Strategy announced, and the stock is 62.4% under its October 2025 high. Clearing that on heavy volume after news of its own is the change. Income watches cash genuinely reaching owners, and here it runs backwards: preferred holders get paid, the common shareholder was sold $2B of new stock last week, and nothing goes the other way. Coinbase is on none of the six either. Its last twelve months are a loss, so both value styles have no earnings to set a fair price against, and 3.67 times book value is not a discount on a company that has not made money over a year; a full cycle in which the quiet quarters still turn a profit would answer both halves at once. The growth styles need revenue that arrives as profit. Momentum needs an event of its own, and a 4.92% day on an entirely normal day's volume, borrowed from bitcoin, is not one. Income is settled on mechanics: no dividend. The fund is a different case, and not a failing one. Six ways of reading companies have nothing to grip on something that owns one asset and employs nobody. Crypto is volatile and speculative, and Thursday alone proves it without help: one coin up about 2% produced +1.87%, +4.92% and +11.53% depending only on which wrapper you happened to be holding. Nothing about that ordering is fixed and all of it runs backwards just as easily. 840,447 coins have not moved since June. Everything that happened to the people who own them this month was decided by other people, written down, and dated. The coins were the least eventful thing in the story. Not investment advice.

  not sure, they're gonna have to find out withdrew everything from @coinbase, cut my coinbase debit card, deleted the app as well been an avid user of coinbase since i joined crypto 12 years ago. it hasn't been a good experience, and at that- i have given coinbase so many chances to just do the bare minimum. yet things like this ban happen, which just sends my experience straight into the negative. additionally, throughout the years, i have honestly eaten **** from coinbase. when i was very poor, i've gotten billed for coinbase one when i wasn't subscribed, i've been double billed when cb one tx didn't go through the first time (bc having no money). there's actually been other accounting errors that resulted in me losing small amounts of money over the years coinbase is nothing special. no matter how much they polish it, it will always remain outdated. aside from this, they have banned me twice now for using their API as provided and encouraged. their API docs literally encourage API bursting. and when i do it, banned + locked away from funds oh well but yeah. i am off of coinbase forever. on blofin now for spot and perps.

  🚨 Bitcoin can now help you buy a home with $0 cash down in America. Coinbase and mortgage lender Better have opened their Fannie Mae-backed mortgage program to qualified U.S. buyers, allowing Bitcoin to be pledged toward the down payment instead of sold. The structure requires Bitcoin worth 250% of the down payment to be locked up, with the BTC returned once the mortgage is fully repaid. Even more notable: a Bitcoin price decline alone does not trigger a margin call.🏠₿

  @StarWarsOP @coinbase Back when I used to gamble I would buy like $50 of sol on coinbase, depo it, and then sell the $150 or whatever I got back, and would end up paying $15+ in just buy + sell fees and then it would try to pull this **** too. Scum company.

  @Techforing1 It's more of a legal issue at this point and it's going to take a while. I got a firm that has a very large investigation going and they said I could join them so I'm about to start working on that. Going to be a long road I suspect but fine. I love how I can buy things on @coinbase and the money either completely disappears or what I buy takes off yet I can't sell it.

  @coinbase The "always on" framing is interesting. Most agent payments today settle through slow rails. The gap between programmable money theory and actual agent-to-agent settlement speed is where the value accrues.
