Is funny to see how Gary Gensler had plenty of time to meet Sam Bankman fried from FTX Scam and did not find any time to meet with the Coinbase CEO 😮😅😂
let's face it, coinbase is listing penny stocks, yup, that's what shitcoins are, penny stocks. Probably even worse than that, since the companies issuing the tokens ain't doing anything productive.
I wish the interviewer would have given Brian an opportunity to answer one question before he moved on to the next! Much better interview on CNBC yesterday.
Looks like the crypto gangsters are just interested in tightening the money supply to grand stand. While, in collusion with the feds, they have been suffocating Abba for 56 years.

Imagine roads having different speed limits but no speed limit signs and nobody will tell you what they are and the cops just give you a ticket whenever you go above them after the fact. Tell me the speeding limits!! Naah you don't need to know that. Here's your speeding ticket
WSJ interviewer seems to have an agenda. Doesn't want to hear the answers to his own questions. Poor reporting/interviewing by the WSJ. Brian Armstrong was composed and factual/common sense in his answers.
This interviewer is doing a poor job of letting his bias and emotions show. He is clearly combative against his points.. Brian and Coinbase and crypto communities want (and have petitioned for) clarity regarding crypto assets as securities vs. commodities. If you say this is a security- then it's perfectly reasonable for someone (like Coinbase) to say "can you tell me how this is a security?" .. If your answer is " it just is trust me" then that isn't regulatory clarity- its tyranny
I am so confused what is the difference between a commodity and a security. Also, are foreign currencies like the Pound Sterling and Euro considered in the US to be securities or commodities?
@@PritishPrabhu If the token had a premine, then it's a security. If you can't use the token because developers are in the middle of an update, then it's a security. Everything but Bitcoin is a security.
Bitcoin is the only ethical token. All of the others were created behind closed doors, distributed to insiders, and then released to the public in order to raise funds for development. That makes them securities. Bitcoin stands alone.
Create a class action lawsuit against the SEC to compensate damages to crypto holders; with irresponsible and destructive as well as illegal practices.
Brian said "Catch us if you can!" He's getting caught. Bitcoin only. Everything else is dependent on developers and had a premine for fundraising. That makes them securities.
LOL IF that could occur, it would make the SEC's case even stronger. With Bitcoin, who would "ban together"? Bitcoin Core? That wouldn't make sense, which makes Bitcoin the only ethical token. All others are VC-backed, premined tokens (ie securities). Bitcoin only.
@@sharpenedge SEC doesnt label BTC as a security tho... The main purpose is money... SEC goes after projects that dont have 100's of millions to spend on court fees/lawyers to have 5 year fights with the SEC which has unlimited money. Look at Ripple... Ripples probably going to win, guess what, they have deep pockets. Now SEC is panicking so they're swinging for the fences... they can take on all the lower cap projects, but if they ban together, strength in numbers. That would NOT make the SEC's case stronger... the SEC would be fighting a larger, richer army.
The CEO was amazing and it is a historical shame for USA & their Officials what is happening. USA was a serious country in the past, now something is very wrong.
I could totally appreciate fighting on our behalf but at some point an olive branch needs to be extended on both ends. We need clarity as Brian mentioned but we also need assurance that the rules arent going to change to facilitate someones agenda down the road. Drop the lawsuit, resolve the complaints, and be the first crypto exchange to operate with complete legality and hopefully worry free.
Coinbase Ceo: we're proud to be fighting for the crypto industry. Where the F**k were you when ripple was getting dragged for 2.5 years and counting. Ripple is the one that has been bringing the fight
I lost over $60K when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I find one source to recover my money, at least $9k profits weekly. Thanks so much Mrs Jessica Garner.
l also invest with mrs Jessica Garner, she charges a 20% commission on the profit made after each trading session, which is fair compared to the effort she put in to make huge profits.
My first investment in mrs.Jessica Garner gave me the confidence that led me to invest without fear of loss. I have already taken 3 of my friends to their guide and they are fine.
She is really great at what she does with amazing skills, she changed my 0.1BTC to 2.1BTC within two weeks of trading, I am now fully confident that she is reliable.
Everyone has a negative response to what Mr. CEO is saying… listen to him… listen all he is trying to get is clarity in all this… not saying he right or wrong/ let’s listen& learn& go from there.. prayers up for coinbase🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gensler is an embarrassment for the US and SEC. Competing countries like Canada and those in the EU already put in place a clear book of regulations. Their crypto markets are thriving while crypto exhanges are leaving the US.
This is reminding me back of the early Microsoft days where the Government was sueing them. Unfortunately this is the problem when technology moves to fast, it becomes so advanced that law makers fear it due to them not understanding it.
Wall Street Journal, why does your reporter think it's ok to keep interrupting someone he is interviewing? It really makes for a terrible interview and is quite obnoxious.
i smell BS... and everyone that is cheering for this are people that have money invested or money lost because all these meme coins are just rug pulls.
I'm celebrating a $30k stock portfolio today. I started this journey with 4k. have invested on time and also with the right team now I have time for my family and the life ahead of me
Guy has a chance to build a bridge with the SEC. Instead chooses to act stubborn and combative based on what HE believes is right vs what the law says is right.
I lost a huge chunk of my portfolio while holding some coin last year,i also tried trading myself same losses. Pls are there any way I could make profits from the crypto market? I'm sick of holding
@davidrichard5791 The first investment I had with a professional named Mrs Aliyah fx Jessica, generated over $20,500 after two weeks of trading and she's been consistent ever since.
Initially, I was skeptical at first, but after I received my first return of investment, it cleared my doubts about totally. Her strategies are mind-blowing, sometimes, I make about 30 to 50 grand a month
Please stop attacking Brian. He is trying to fight for us all. He isn't breaking the law ... THERE IS NO LAW... I hated the way you did this interview ans to top it off it was like a 90 second interview on something that deserves 2 hours. Horrible video.
there is zero doubt that he and his other exchange buddies have been selling unregistered securities. they cant make enough money on btc alone. their only source of meaningful income is altcoins and most of these altcoins, in fact all of them, are securities. if there was an active lawsuit between SEC and XRP he should have stopped and thought was it ok for him to list all these altcoins essentially similar to XRP. he broke the law. he can get support of all CRYPTO BROS but that does not change the reality

The problem is that SEC knows exactly how much money Coinbase has to fight from. That's a dirty fight. And please, stop cutting him off.

Not possible it is not what I’m thinking 💭 😂
If there is no clear rules before, shouldn't the rules only take effect _after_ they are made? Same for AI.
Exchanges needs to exit the US including most of the cryptos, the rest of the world has rules in place ! Get out fast !!!
The only exchanges having this problem are security token trading exchanges. Bitcoin-only exchanges are fine, and they don't care.
If Coinbase has to delist a token such as MATIC does that mean that other assets on the polygon network will also be delisted?

All crypto projects should ban together and collectively sue the SEC.
