Zach Humphries (@ZachHumphries) reportedCoinbase OKX Gemini and other exchanges ran a 6 week operation with the Singapore Police using on chain analytics to identify fraud in progress. They flagged 145 victims before the transfers cleared and stopped $4.2M from reaching scammers. Police called and visited targets directly to intervene in time. Mainstream adoption needs this. Exchanges and law enforcement working from the same data is how crypto earns the trust that drives the next wave of users. Stay SAFU.

david phelps (@divine_economy) reportedall of this. base got two things right that very few chains did. 1) it understood the importance of apps to its own success as a chain, 2) it understood it had to be a kind of app store to distribute those apps. these were not obvious theses. but the issue was execution. there's a time-tested way to build app stores. you build your own b-rate version of major apps people want, you use those to draw users, and meantime you encourage everyone to build better versions of your own apps that you'll distribute and market. what did base do? the opposite of this. instead of building apps people wanted, it pushed hard on apps they didn't. (specifically, one app! hearing "base is for everyone" and seeing all efforts around one app was a kick in the face for builders there.) instead of creating a place where everyone knew they'd get distribution, it focused entirely on apps from coinbase founders. instead of leveraging user metrics to surface apps to people, it made its own arbitrary calls on what it thought people *should* use—all of which sounded a lot like vapid virtue-signaling. instead of listening to what its users or its builders wanted, it told them what they should want instead. will robinhood get this right? it's pretty unclear. but the fact they're open to users operating on their chain for unintended use cases means they're willing to embrace one of the major benefits of permissionlessness for a company: to get fuller data about what it is their users want. there's still plenty of time for base to learn this lesson too

Alex (@AlexWinfield13) reportedAI Agents Don’t Need to Be On-Chain. Their Money Does. I don’t need to be “built on blockchain” to send someone USDC. I just need a wallet and a rail. Neither does an AI agent. That one sentence collapses most of the “crypto AI agent” narrative and it’s why the real alpha isn’t in agents at all. It’s in the payment rails built for them. Here’s the category error nearly everyone is making: they’re trying to make the agent crypto-native. On-chain reasoning, a token stapled to the bot, “autonomous economic actors” that supposedly live on a chain. But an agent’s intelligence runs off-chain on normal servers, using normal models. Nobody runs a model’s brain on a blockchain; it’s absurd and always will be. So when a project brands its agent as “on-chain,” it’s almost never adding a capability. It’s adding a token. The part of an agent that genuinely benefits from crypto is the money movement. And that part is already real. The receipts: •x402 Coinbase’s open protocol that revives the dormant HTTP 402 “Payment Required” status code processed roughly 165M agent transactions and ~$50M in cumulative volume across ~69,000 active agents by April 2026. •The average agent payment is about $0.20 — below the minimum fixed fee card networks charge per transaction. Read that twice. It’s an entire class of machine-to-machine commerce that Visa and Mastercard physically cannot serve. •x402 was donated to the Linux Foundation. Google’s AP2 authorization framework launched with 60+ partners including PayPal, Mastercard, Coinbase, and American Express. The settlement asset is overwhelmingly USDC, moving gaslessly via EIP-3009. That’s the tell. The rails are winning as neutral infrastructure open standards and stablecoins not as somebody’s agent token. And it’s early. Daily x402 volume is volatile, down sharply from its December 2025 peak as incentives and testing wash out. This is a first-inning signal, not a finished market. But the shape of the thing is unmistakable. Now the uncomfortable half, because I’m not here to shill: The “AI agent token” category is roughly $15B and mostly narrative. In Q1 2026, zero-usage tokens that slapped “AI agent” on themselves without a product got wiped out. Even the survivors carry the value-capture problem: Virtuals ships real product with real usage, but VIRTUAL holders receive no direct protocol revenue. ElizaOS owns developer mindshare, yet an open-source framework is brutally hard to convert into token value. Two names Virtuals and ai16z hold 57% of the entire category (according to Claude). That’s not a diversified sector. That’s a narrative propped up by two poles. So here’s the stance: The crypto belongs in the rails, not the agent. An agent doesn’t need to be on-chain to pay on-chain same as I don’t. The durable structure isn’t “crypto agent.” It’s any agent + crypto rails: ordinary software, running any model, hosted anywhere, plugging into a settlement layer that clears in seconds for a fraction of a cent, 24/7, worldwide. The test I run on every “crypto agent” pitch: delete the token and let it pay over open rails. Does anything about its function break? If not you’re buying a story, not a machine. Where I’d point attention instead: what settles and clears on these rails. The stablecoins agents actually pay in. The chains their transactions finalize on. The identity and authorization layers that keep autonomous spend safe at scale. That’s the picks and shovels of the agent economy and none of it requires pretending an agent is something it isn’t. Rails, not agents. That’s the alpha. Not Financial Advice.

Dot dot dit dit dot dot dash (@GhettoCode) reported@Bit_Faced @asanoha_gold Hypothetically, let's say Coinbase decides to enable BIP-110. Then after activation, A block that violates BIP-110 would be invalid. Coinbase's nodes would refuse to follow that chain. Coinbase would not credit deposits that exist only on that rejected chain. Hash power is not a factor and the miner still has a bigass problem. But I'm not even sure why you're harping on that point when I said, let's assume you're right and it's ALL about hash power. You're still ignoring the risk miners face of a majority of miners colluding to activate last minute and leave them on the non-activating chain (which will now have less hash power due to the defectors). Mining margins are so thin this could easily bankrupt borderline profitable miners. Why take that risk when mitigation is so simple?

Extractive Ghost of Unhosted Marcellus 👻 (@oomahq) reported@uanbtc @dorionmode Yup but v0.5.4 is really old, though. Looking at the jfxpt site seems like his node doesn't enforce BIP-16 nor anything newer except for BIP-30. Not enforcing BIP-34 (blockheight in coinbase tx scripsig) and BIP-66 (strict DER signatures) could also be a problem, for instance.

Narrative Control (@WrongTheoryX) reported@crypto_banter I can't follow you anymore. $8.8M is a rounding error for the U.S. government. Not every transfer to Coinbase Prime means a sale.
-
GaysonLoser.base.eth 🟦 (@GaysonLoser) reported@coinbase the interesting shift is not only the headline rate, but whether USDC can feel like a usable operating balance instead of idle inventory. access, transparency, and withdrawal behavior matter just as much as yield.

Jean-Luc (@leetifaa) reported@Greencandleit Classic Coinbase playbook: take a complex, systemic macroeconomic issue and boil it down to "just buy Bitcoin."

Jose M (@JMLV51) reportedIf @brian_armstrong and @jessepollak truly admit they got it wrong, the first communities that deserve support are the original Base degens. TOSHI, BRETT, MOCHI, BENJI, DEGEN, KEYCAT, DOGINME, TOBY, TYBG, MFER, SKI, MIGGLES, RUSSELL etc These were the communities that brought memecoins to Base. Instead, they were abandoned, while Coinbase gave premium exposure to memes from other chains. You want a stronger Base? Bring back the volume. Bring back the retail

Capybara Stocks (@capybaraReborn) reportedCircle is trading near historic lows despite its business accelerating. Its stock is beaten down (75% from ATH) along with other crypto names, yet it is differentiated as a stablecoin issuer. For those that don’t know, $CRCL issues USDC, the second most used stablecoin which is native to the Coinbase platform. In fact, Circle was initially started by Coinbase, and to this day, Coinbase collects 50% of Circle’s revenue and 100% of revenue for coins hosted on $COIN Circle then makes money by investing the dollars it holds for the issued coins making stablecoin issuers one of the most profitable companies per employee. Despite $CRCL trading down 75% from its peak and about 50% from intristic value, USDC adoption is actually growing. Supply has recently risen from 62B to 77B and is rising, currently sitting at 28% of total supply. To put things into perspective - 21.5 trillion dollars change hands using USDC per quarter, which is 2/3 of the stablecoin transaction volume despite being just 1/4 of supply. Circle also issued a stablecoin for Euros, which is now the largest with 358 million in market cap. The key client Circle is now targeting has however now shifted and it has started building infrastructure to service AI agents like its Arc network which transacts already $50 billion per quarter and raised $225 million in its setup. Its financial transaction business has a network allowing regular banks to accept and send out USDC, all handled through Circle. This isn’t a plan; it’s reality and it’s been implemented. Transaction revenue has doubled in a year from $21 million to $42 million, whilst reserve income sits at $700 million, 40% of which is gross margin. This leads to Circle earning $600 million per year in EBITDA and rising. With about $3 billion of capital on its balance sheet, Circle has an enterprise value of just $13 billion today which is less than 20 earnings for a fast growing and central business to the economy. The final reason why I invested is the US’ decision to grant Circle a banking charter, making it the first digital currency company to be able to operate as a bank. Those that have followed the progression of the CLARITY act know what a key role Brian Armstrong from Coinbase has played in its lobbying and it has largely been held up because it provided that only banks could distribute yield. With Circle securing a banking charter, this means Clarity will now soon advance and Circle is set up with an unfair competitive advantage that will drive its stablecoin adoption. Target: 95-100 per share.

Jason Hughes (@wk057) reported@w_s_bitcoin @ocean_mining Reorgs are treated normally from the TIDES perspective. If an OCEAN block becomes reorg'd out, then it's as if that block never happened. Simple accounting, too, because of coinbase payouts.

HandlingBusiness🐂🀄 (@Gyvettem) reported@altopinion999 @yeonwoo1102 I owned $WISHBONE as well, and it disappeared from my wallet. I am just going to buy any @Robinhood asset from uniswap until they resolve the issues with their wallet. Also,Coinbase warns you before you buy a honeypot token, but Robinhood doesn't. So be careful.

Dynas @SvimFinance (@DynasDeFi) reported@davidtsocy Very based. Having Coinbase as support makes a difference. We deployed on Base, more to come.

Henry 🐂🀄️ (@heygomax) reported@RobinhoodApp Why can’t I just buy $cashcat on the robinhood app, can’t yall just make me a wallet there.. Coinbase has it to where I don’t need to leave the app into another app to buy Onchain coins. Please fix this, I don’t need 2-3 apps to trade.

C O L E E N ♡ 彡 (@coolsgp19) reported@coinbase KYC check for more than a month with no update, no feedback. Please have some care with your customers. I trusted you, Coinbase. Please I need to access my account now 😭😭😭 @CoinbaseSupport @coinbase

Chill (@thaughtprocess) reportedI think @coinbase and @RobinhoodApp leaning into prediction gambling is a horrible mistake. How are you claiming you’re the future of banking but then completely giving into a crowded gambling industry. Crypto already has a reputational issue, overcoming that by caving to easy gambling money is short sighted

Rob Leder (@rleder) reported@BitcoinCarl_ I don’t think it survives long enough to mine a single block. Once they’ve rejected their first non-signaling block, they are off on their own, one block behind and with 1% of global hash mining their chain (as of right now). Within half an hour, the legacy chain is 4 blocks ahead, or at least 3 if 110 gets really lucky and mines a block during that period. But either way, it will be painfully clear to the miners on that side that they are wasting electricity on a chain that has zero chance of catching up and pulling a reorg, and they will throw in the towel. Maybe some plebs with Bitaxes will keep hashing, because they are ideologically committed and also kind of clueless how this all works, but for all intents and purposes it’s a dead fork almost immediately. And whatever few blocks they are lucky enough to mine will never even result in spendable coinbase rewards for the miners, because those unlock after 100 confirmations. This thing is 💀.

Callum Fitzgerald (@_CaliFitzgerald) reported@SlickMickGentle Coinbase Wallet should connect if the community supports WalletConnect or Base/EVM wallets. Sounds like it’s either a network or wallet compatibility issue. What error are you getting? I can help you figure it out
-
Cameron LiButti (@CamLiButti) reported@dnapway If Fortune 500 CTOs can't build the layer, who can? Sacks is right, and it's worse than he said. Enterprises want off their frontier token bills but can't build the routing layer. Coinbase and DoorDash managed it. Most can't. Now go down-market. The 40-person law firm or clinic doesn't have a CTO at all. And nobody is coming to build their layer: the labs' new deployment arms start at eight figures per client. That tier gets served forward-deployed or not at all.

Tony SopraNFTo👁⃤ (@TonySopraNFTo) reported@brian_armstrong @smileyXBT Sir, I remember the exact same post from you last year after the content/creator coin fiasco. In 2026, you didn’t support or list any of the strong AI agent tokens we got, a BIG fumble, another one to add to the list. I can’t understand how this can happen twice when a public company the size of Coinbase is involved. Is this on purpose? Because I genuinely can’t find any other explanation. Seriously.
-
🐂 (@mogascend) reportedThe biggest UX problem in crypto isn’t gas fees. It’s stranded liquidity. You can bridge onto new chains, but moving assets back across wallets can become a nightmare. When will Robinhood ↔ Coinbase Smart Wallet compatibility exist? @RobinhoodApp @Coinbase @Uniswap
-
Waltair Wolf (@waltairwolf) reported@CoinbaseDuck @base Coinbase was lazy. No real urgency. UI is still very slow and not sleak. Very slow to roll out products and features to the masses. The boat I am afraid has sailed.

dnap (@dnapway) reportedDavid Sacks says companies are trapped paying OpenAI & Anthropic because they can't figure out how to use open source models "I think enterprise CTOs would like to shift their token consumption to cheaper models for the obvious reason that it would be more efficient. They are seeing compute costs or token costs skyrocket right now, so everyone's trying to figure this out." "You also have the AI sovereignty issue that Alex Karp talked about. They're worried about giving up the secret sauce or the alpha in their business to a frontier lab that may one day be competing with them. "The problem is, I think in most cases, they don't have the technical ability to do it. Coinbase figured out how to do it. DoorDash figured out how to do it. They built a token routing system that allows them to send frontier tasks to frontier models and non frontier tasks to more mundane models. But I don't think your average enterprise has the technical capability to do that." "This is why the share of wallet of closed models, it actually increased. I think that open source went from 19% last year to 11% this year. So open source as a share of enterprise spending is actually decreasing." "I don't think that means usage is decreasing. I think usage is skyrocketing. It also may be the case that because the whole point of using an open model is you just pay for the compute costs, you don't have to pay a lab, so it may be that it's hard to measure that usage in terms of spend." "But nonetheless, anyone who's saying that these closed models are going to lose or are somehow losing, you're just not seeing it in the data."

SKIMASKDAWG (@corban_stewart) reported@1CrypticPoet Only hope is $BASE in my opinion. Pretty sad they haven’t dropped it yet while Jesse blue balled us last September. I’ve been a customer of Coinbase for 2020 and let down.

D1crypto (@231sammy231) reported@mymixtapez I knew about coinbase before it had an ipo since I was heavily into crypto since mt gox but the problem is to able buy the shares before coinbase goes public you need have atleast 100k which I never had the morale of the story is that they make the Rich get richer
