Brian Armstrong is a smart cookie. Coinbase is the leading CEX in the United States.
In this video I discuss how we are seeing volumes on DEX along with the hybrid system that is developing.
Here is the article mentioned in the article:

I'm done with Coinbase. There are other options that are better once you get used to them. I'm waiting for the time we can all trade peer to peer or with other small business merchants who all have their own private wallet addresses when mass adoption has already happened. I wish the middlemen parasites would be cut out of this exchange and that most people would understand that failure to understand the technical will lead to being rendered a child needing parenting from the State.
The longer term worry I have is that the coming banking instability/crash (I think this year, though Martin Armstrong seems to think late '26 into 2027) will have most people clamoring for safety and that it will come in the form of malware that one must download from the State in order to gain access to the internet.
Technical hurdles make this difficult (how to ensure one person per OS, etc), but not impossible or forced due to State desperation. Hashing data packets to internet ID transmitted over IP's to ensure one cannot remain private to the State would increase bandwidth significantly and would probably not work any time soon.
I feel like something has to give soon, having finally gotten into bitcoin on Valentines day 2017, seeing the resulting capture of BTC in the block size wars by deep pockets and making all the "bitcoin fixes this" maxies look like fools in the mean time.
Unfortunately the public cannot be expected to understand the importance and definition of the Aristotelian properties of money (Store of Value, Medium of Exchange, Unit of Account), fungibility, etc and how being ignorant leads to them being sitting ducks led to impoverishment.
Astrologically, April 7th is an important refranation date (when planets that move together do not complete their aspects). Venus Rx happens this winter in a little over a month (I think early March but not bothering to check exactly). Soon after, Mercury turns retrograde and chases Venus.
Mercury, Venus combinations are about diplomacy, negotiation, weights (fairness) and economic transactions. On the morning of April 7th after Venus retrogrades into Pisces (where it is exalted), it contacts Saturn at about 7 am. Within 10 minutes, Mercury turns direct as if to say (Saturn has soiled Venus, the deal is not salvageable). If you're planning a wedding, probably not a good date for that. But what this phasis (an image that speaks - Greek) seems to suggest that famous phrase from Andreas Antonopoulous's speech "I have a prediction... that the phrase 'backed by the full faith and credit of the United States of America' rings hollow, not just in the backwaters, but in many places throughout the world". I may have botched the exact quote as it is from memory.
Another image comes to mind, from Dick Allgire, a remote viewer who once saw congress members puking in the halls of the Capitol (my interpretation of what he drew). That fits as well. I don't see any other astrologers making that prediction. It may come to pass where nothing eventful happens on that day, and that instead someone gets stood up at a wedding, someone else broke a valued vase, still another declared bankruptcy, etc. I would imagine that with billions of people on the planet, this must be true of multiple people on that date.
Prediction is a hazardous profession, but one would think if there's anything to astrology, this would be the textbook example. One might think in terms of the "aorist" tense of this economic "crash" being "ongoing", having started roughly at the start of covid and probably continuing on past 2030.
So maybe the Fed chairman pukes on his breakfast, and we hear nothing. On the other hand if this actually does happen as stated, it's not proof that the stars "did it".
As long as people are stuck paying the majority of their expensese using "legal tender", the intermediaries are in control. People think it is the government that controls the money when it is really the banks.
As for the rest of your comment, very interesting stuff. Trump is not far removed from the bankers (you dont make it in real estate without being cozy with them). He is not the white knight most are making him out to be in my view. While he tackles the deep state, he is opening the door for another state, which isnt "the people".
It should also be noted that Trump has a Venus Saturn conjunction in his birth chart (12th house, or maybe 11th by whole sign if somehow Virgo actually rises). It seems to indicate that he plays a similar role to FDR in settling the bankruptcy of the US (District of Colombia, not the republic of the several states of the union).
Since "we the people" never consented to be surties on the debt (only the sole proprietor is, see 18 USC 8 - https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/8) the settlement is a fraud.
I wonder when Coinbase will restart their services in my country.
Crypto exchanges are also strictly and sometimes irrationally regulated here in my country. Was forced to liquidate my assets in etoro last year. Hopefully Coinbase will remain. !BBH
Coinbase is working hard to reactivate and improve its services, and that's good for many.
