Now ask yourself: What happens to the price of bitcoin, internet-native hard money, once the entire world moves onchain?

There is no bear market for stablecoins.
We’re updating the financial system.

Meet Coinbase for Agents.
Give your agent its own account to:
→ Execute trades & manage your portfolio
→ Run autonomously under guardrails
→ Pay for data & research tools via x402 (coming next week)
Agentic finance is here, and it's powered by Coinbase.

If the socialists had their way, Elon would have had his paypal profits taken and redistributed for the greater good.
The world would never have seen Tesla, nor SpaceX.
And the world wouldn't know it, because they were uncreated, and thus unseen.
Imagine the companies that don't exist, because Washington destroyed them before they were born.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Almost 4 years later and getting ready to hear the obituaries once again while valuation readings enter deep value. Time is a flat circle.

Thanks @DashaBurns for the great conversation. We need to pass the CLARITY Act now more than ever: strong rules to protect consumers, unlock innovation, and build the future of finance here in America.

I sat down with top crypto exec @brian_armstrong to talk all about how the fight over regulating digital assets has become a major issue in Washington, and the growing political influence of the industry in elections across the country.

We either seize the future or cede it to our economic adversaries.
I choose CLARITY.

America built the dollar-dominated financial system that has anchored global stability for a century. The Clarity Act ensures we build the next one. The time to act is now — before Beijing decides it will.

Reliable MCPs are the trick to 10x productivity at large companies. In the last 6 months @coinbase feels like it reached an inflection point.
The kind of questions that used to take a week to answer can now be resolved with a 20 min Claude session brief doc for alignment.

We like to think about bitcoin as Money 2.0
Fiat is 1.0
And Stablecoins are a bridge between the two. They offer clear improvements and customer benefits from the legacy rails.
However, they don’t replace or compete with bitcoin.

A piece from @greg_ip in @WSJ today asks whether stablecoins are a risk to the economy because they are "private money." It's a fair question, but the framing skips over how the US monetary system has actually worked for 160 years.
"Private money" isn't the exception in our system — it's the rule. Roughly 90% of M2 is privately issued: commercial bank deposits and money market fund shares. Each carries different risks and is regulated commensurately — banks by Basel, capital, FDIC, and stress testing; MMFs by SEC liquidity rules; and now GENIUS stablecoins by a purpose-built federal regime.
The right question isn't "public or private." It's whether the regulation matches the risk. GENIUS does.

Warren's war on crypto was a pure own-goal by the Democrats. It achieved nothing, and it cost them enormously by alienating a large fraction of a powerful group who'd previously supported them. Look at the change from 2020 to 2024.
