I somehow doubt Sony is going to be able to pull this off.

Necessary reality check.

Valid criticism that must be heeded.

Thrilled to announce that we've raised a Series B led by DRW Venture Capital to accelerate our amazing growth this year! Just a few highlights: - 10X growth in transaction volume in the last 12 months, now at half a trillion total 🤯 - 25M+ transactions securely processed - 85+

Proud to have invested in this industry leader

Back in Europe after Token2049 Dubai—and here’s the hard truth: The UAE is eating everyone’s lunch. Zero income tax. Pro-business regulation. Political neutrality. It’s not just attracting crypto founders—it’s becoming the default safe haven for global capital. Even capital

I’m increasingly convinced that perpetuals are crypto’s one of the most powerful growth engines in crypto. In 2024, they did $60T+ in volume — yet only 2.5% came from decentralized exchanges. With the rise of Hyperliquid, dYdX v4, and others, that share could hit 10–15% fast.

Perps, perps, perps…. Perps! #crypto #perps

Although DEXes are awesome for self-custody, permissionlessness, and decentralization… Let’s be real: most of the world isn’t ready for that level of freedom. Not your keys? Not your coins. But also… not your job if you lose client funds. 💀

That’s why I’m actually excited Coinbase will be in the S&P 500 as of today. More credibility = more volume. And with the wave of crypto M&A (👀 Deribit), an American CEX will be able to compete better 🇺🇸

..... and if America is to be the crypto capital of the world... that's necessary 🗽

Institutions managing other people’s money should never be self-custodying crypto. Risk ≠ courage when it’s not your capital. Let CEXes do what they do best: Institutional custody and regulatory compliance Let DEXes do the rest. 🌐🧱 There’s room for both.

LFG Coinbase
