Brian Armstrong voted NO on an idea that made Coinbase $800 million. "An example is USDC, the stablecoin, I'm embarrassed to admit. I actually voted no on that idea. Luckily somebody else funded it out of their budget." USDC now generates $800M/year in revenue. Even CEOs get it wrong.

@grok explain to a 4 year old kiddo, what are t-bills?

Grok profil fotoğrafı

Grok6 ay önce

Hey kiddo! T-bills are like a super-safe short loan note from the big USA government. You give them your money for a few weeks or months, and they promise: "We'll give it ALL back PLUS a tiny extra treat!" No risk, like lending your cookie to mom—she always returns it with one more. That's how they borrow cash safely. 💰

Reserve management is split between Circle and Coinbase. Shared custody creates fragmented key authority. Settlement finality depends on institutional oracle consensus.

We asked Brian Armstrong what it's like to incubate Base at Coinbase 🛡️. "The secret to this is to allocate budget to these venture bets, which are small teams within the co, kind of like Y Combinator teams." "75% of these bets won't work out, but once in a while, something hits and it pays for all the rest of the bets." "For Base, jesse.base.eth told me he wanted to work on a new chain. I was like, take a small team, go run at it. I shielded it from the rest of the org and just gave them time to cook." "I also actually voted no on USDC. Now that's like $1B of revenue for us."

Activists in southern Minnesota think it’s a good idea to track ICE agents so that can get in their way and obstruct their efforts. They soon find that it wasn’t a good idea when the window on their vehicle is smashed and they’re pulled out and detained. This is absolutely what I voted for. FAFO!

Circle did. $175 billion in USDT, locked out of regulated Europe. $USDC walks into the gap. Regulation just chose the rails.

140 of the biggest financial firms on Earth just teamed up to assassinate ONE company. The same company they helped BUILD for 7 years. BlackRock, Coinbase, Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, BNY Mellon, and Google all showed up to sign the kill order: Yesterday, a consortium of over 140 financial firms launched a new stablecoin called Open USD. The target: Circle Internet Group, the $17 billion company behind USDC. Circle stock crashed 17.5% in a single trading session and closed near $62. It is now down more than 40% in 30 days from its May high of $138. But this is NOT a story about a competitor showing up... This is about a company getting assassinated by the exact partners it depended on to survive. Here is how deep the betrayal goes: Coinbase and Circle co-founded USDC together in 2018. They built the stablecoin as partners through the Centre Consortium. In 2024 alone, Circle paid Coinbase $908 million as a distribution fee for hosting USDC on the Coinbase platform. That revenue-sharing agreement expires in August 2026. Six weeks before that renewal, Coinbase publicly signed onto a project designed to make USDC obsolete. BlackRock literally manages Circle's reserves. The world's largest asset manager has been sitting on the $73.6 billion in US Treasuries backing USDC but joined a consortium built to redirect that interest income to other partners instead of Circle. BNY Mellon is Circle's custody bank. Same playbook here. Custody by day, competitor by night. And Open USD is launching natively on Base, which is Coinbase's own blockchain. Coinbase is literally constructing the rails to replace USDC on the chain Coinbase owns. And what makes it worse: 99% of Circle's 2024 revenue came from interest earned on those Treasury reserves. That is the entire business model. Take user dollars, park them in short-term T-bills, keep the yield. Open USD's pitch to the market is a single sentence: Partners keep the yield instead of Circle. Zero minting fees or redemption fees. Almost all the interest income flows back to the 140 companies distributing the coin. Every "partner" that gave Circle its network effect just realized they had been paying Circle to do something they could do themselves. The interim CEO of Open Standard is Zach Abrams, the co-founder of Bridge, the stablecoin infrastructure firm Stripe acquired for $1.1 billion in 2024. Stripe's stablecoin acquisition is now running the coordinated hit against Circle as well. Circle's own CEO Jeremy Allaire went on the record calling USDC "the most trusted, widely adopted stablecoin globally" and welcoming the competition. That is the polite corporate translation for "our largest revenue-sharing partner just publicly announced they no longer need us." Citi projects the stablecoin market will hit $4 trillion by 2030. 140 companies looked at that number, looked at how much of it Circle was keeping, and coordinated to take it. The exchanges that gave USDC liquidity, the banks that gave USDC legitimacy, the card networks that gave USDC distribution, and the asset managers that gave USDC credibility... Every one of them spent years inside the walls before yesterday's public execution. The most successful crypto IPO of 2025 just got dismantled by the SAME names that built it. What do you think?

🐻‍❄️ chasing only an ideal can actually be harmful. it’s like having an ideal type. that whole idea is kinda funny to me. you want someone who fits that exact image, but even if you meet that person, you have no idea how well you’d actually get along. i think you just have to learn to focus on the present, then as you do that, wouldn’t it help to pay attention to what you actually like, and what kinds of things you do get a positive response from others?

"You would never say to an anorexic person, 'Actually, you know what? You're really fat.' You would never tell somebody who is suffering from severe depression, 'Maybe you're right.

No, but they are going to remember in the darkness of the night that there was somebody who was telling them the truth." Ben Shapiro on the importance of never acquiescing to transgender ideology.

Murphy: It is natural that Democrats would want to ensure that any money we spend on DHS is being used lawfully. Right now, that department is full of unlawful activity. This is obviously a very inopportune time to give an agency that is acting lawlessly even more money. ICE has so much funding, it has no idea what to do with it. I’m not interested in funding an agency that’s operating outside the law.
