Interesting news, but I think it will be more profitable now to earn on the Crypton cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin will fall in price, now in general I believe that it is possible to earn reliably only on the Crypton cryptocurrency.
Pull your funds out of Coincase while you still can. Once a cryto CEO says his or her company is safe its time to pull out asap
It’s a scam…I knew it from the start…The bankruptcy laws are there to protect criminals from going to jail.
yeah great . one ponzi schemer analyzing another
Well FTX was regulated. And so is Coinbase. Regulation does not mean its safe. Coinbase should be checked out because they've been having issues for a long time already, no one just gives attention to them.
What's the big deal? If the SEC discovers that they are issuing unaudited stablecoin USDC, they will be in big trouble very soon. They'll go bankrupt, just like FTX.
Yeah, Coinbase is completely different from them. They have a huge number of lawsuits against their exchange 🤣
Coffeezilla called this Fraud 6 months ago on his channel🤐
Wasn't Coinbase recently under SEC investigation? They lied about filings and listing shitcoins on their platform. Not very trustworthy…
Yeah they're not built like FTX. They just slowly halt their withdrawals without you even noticing…
Coinbase is what it always has been. They even went public even though they weren't registered as a broker yet which is entirely illegal.
Dems send Billions of Tax Dollars to the Ukraine CIA Proxy WAR. CIA Ukraine Puppet parks it in FTX. Sam Bankman-Fried launders it back into Democrat Party Elections & Politicians. Everybody gets their cut. Music stops… People scramble for last ponzi scheme chair. How fast will the TV Limited Hangout make the story disappear like our tax dollars? How many people are about to commit Epstein???
The word is now out. The Democrats sent tens of billions to Ukraine and then laundered this money back to Democrat pockets and funds in the US. Now the company is bankrupt and the funds are nowhere to be found.
Ever wonder where all those billions of tax dollars were going in Ukraine? Did you ever wonder why anyone was trusting the elites in US politics like the Bidens with billions in funds going to Ukraine?
Turns out that these were excellent questions!
We now have information that the tens of billions of dollars going to Ukraine, were actually laundered back to the US to corrupt Democrats and elites using FTX cryptocurrency. Now the money is gone and FTX is bankrupt.
10% for the Big Guy! 💵👋🏻
Sam Bankman-Fried bout to commit Epstein! 😱
Doesn't Coinbase's SEC filing state that in the event of bankruptcy, Coinbase reserves the right to use client account crypto holdings to pay debtors? What makes them different from FTX?
So, if Coinbase can be trusted, why didn't they inform their stockholders about their patent infringement lawsuit? They are infringing on Veritaseum Inc's intellectual property, and despite their claims, their profits are non-existent. So much for transparency and standing out from the crowd, right?
Wasn't Coinbase embroiled in a scandal after being tied to Mashinsky's theft of cash from Celsius? Mashinksy stole money from Celsius and then transferred it to Coinbase to cash out. And Coinbase did not even notify the authorities. They appear to be supporting these criminal actions.
Simply stop using Coinbase. That's my opinion here. Because of what Circle and Coinbase did with the recent Tornado Cash incident, I no longer trust them and will never buy from or use them again. I do not want to put my money at risk.
Yeah Coinbase is way different with the billions of losses they have 😂
Yes they are nerd
What about you ask Armstrong why he sold all his stock shares during their exchange's first day of trading on Nasdaq? It looks like he's doing a pump and dump.
Even with this current crypto dip, the market has been pretty bad until today it decided to surge. Everybody was Practically Crying then. It kept dipping. That's what you get when you feel you can navigate the process on your own. Big thank to Hilder Ferguson. I'm not bothered with how bad the Market is because my assests are insured due to her advice and I still receive my profit
They are set up like ftx. Read their financial statements. They record customers funds as their own.

You guys need to lobby for the best crypto regulations now. We are relying on you to be the voice for us.
This didn't age well.
Bernard Madoff was regulated too. Crypto was invented so we do not need to trust anyone. Self custody and smart contracts replaces the old "regulated" insecure system.
Coinbase will be $ less in next 90 days because of FTX they are casualty of FTX fraud 😢
i´m sorry guys
Brian….
You are lying….you know exactly what SBF was doing…..you guys in crypto are all going to ZERO…
Oh ! so NOW you're not FLEXING in your TSHIRT saying we know nothing ? NOW you're wearing a suit to be more "serious" huh…….
Brian Armstrong a smart guy and Coinbase a great business, stick to onshore exchanges.
You’re right, where’s my damn money at?
Crypto is dead. The whole "industry" is nothing but scammers setting up bag holder after bag holder. Get out now.
Let see 😂😂😂
At least he presents him self well and dresses like an adult. That goes a long way in crypto.
That's Lex Luthor.
Simple solution..We need Crypto Regulations asap!
Brian Armstrong is hiding something at the 0:33 mark. His eyelids twitch shut which signifies he is with holding a truth and he is ubcomfortable doing so. He knows but he cannot say because he cannot confirm it or it would make people skeptical of coinbase knowing about this for a while
I think it is important to understand that crypto holds little to no value and won't for a long-time coming… Equities are the safest bets and hold true value..
Why does Armstrong look like a deep fake?
No, but they want to be!
This just sounds sketchy. I won't be surprised if Coinbase goes down in near future. I think all of Crypto is a scam
