You nailed it. Now the sec is trying to do anything they can to close escape valves that go away from the dollar. Which probably means something bad is coming, and people should have solid investments outside the dollar.
The argument that Ethereum is decentralized is dubious. The downgrade to proof-of-stake was entirely designed and coordinated by the devs under their supreme leader and public-facing spokesman Vitalik Buterin. Also the power-law distribution of stake is an invariant that is never not the case. Thus even though we may not know the names behind the curtain, there are small number of individuals who control every proof-of-stake blockchain. Thus it certainly appears to be an obfuscated enterprise, which I think what the courts will ultimately conclude. Thus everything not Bitcoin will end up as a security, unless there can be any other surviving proof-of-work altcoins and/or someone can invent an alternative to the current status quo of proof-of-work and proof-of-stake. Yes I am implying that every proof-of-stake blockchain based cryptocurrency is probably a security under the Howey test.
If they were going after Bitcoin I’d agree with you but it’s very clear that just about all crypto currencies with the exception of Bitcoin is a security, including Eth. Brian is trying to protect his business and income and that of his investors. It’s really that simple
@@RyanVoelkel only legacy Bitcoin will survive with its 1 MiB block size will limit transactions to 7 per second. No SegWit, no Lightning Networks scaling. Thus Bitcoin will be only for the uber wealthy who can afford the $10k transaction fees. Bitcoin will enslave us, not rescue us. I wrote extensively about the game theory of the 2017 soft-fork which will eventually he hard-forked with all those 13 million Bitcoins being donated to the miners. You all do not know what is really going on.
The corruption of the SEC is almost glaring ! But coinbase is learning that the whole industry should have joined the fight against the SEC when they went after XRP !
We know how badly the sec wants to take down Binance& in attacking they the sec froze my assets on Binance us)the sec hurts retail investors . Not helps harms still coinbase should join forces with binance cardano solana & polygon matic to create a united legal front against this out of control rabid dog grnsler sec
@@m0o0n0i0r Obviously, Coinbase only really cares about working in the best interests of Coinbase. But they never "thought the SEC had their back." They've always tried to work openly with regulators (or at least tried to _appear_ like they were working openly with regulators), but the SEC has made that very difficult.
@@neofromthewarnerbrothersic145 Sure, and coinbase is accusing the SEC of picking winners and losers - while their listing policy to me seems to be doing exactly the same thing. Has their policies actually worked in their best interests? I believe it hasn't based on the fact that they had to make staff cut backs - January 10, that the company would be reducing operating expenses by 25%, which involves laying off another 950 employees. Now they have to pay extra cash fighitng the SEC. Point is, their current operation doesnt appear to me, working the best interests of coinbase as an exchnage, hence why they are having got fire employees. If they had a consitent approach, they would delist the coins the SEC believes were securities in their complaint, as they did with XRP? Instead they delisted XRP and missed out on trading fees for about 2 years. Lets face it, they are ETH maxis, and now are trying to ride to coat tails of Ripple's sucess against the SEC hence why Paul Grewal wants more meetings with Stuart Alderoty. Seems like they worked way too hard to get an IPO and plecated the SEC for it - and it didnt do their business any good, hence the staff cut backs.

@@candycaneunicorn8024 XRP is as centralized as you can get, and ran by a company. PEPE is everything wrong with this industry currently. 🤡 lining up for ponzi's and ignoring anything with utility
Brian is a great representative for the crypto space, and I'm glad he is behind the attepmt to get some clarity and stop the sec from letting the U.S. fall behind.
CON base is scum. I lost nearly 8000 xrp. THEY never even acknowledged me. Account was hacked when I left xrp on there for flare drop. FK CONBASE THIEFS!!!!
He's just giving Brian the opportunity to give a strong case, in which he did, if he got thrown soft ball questions like you're beloved Frankenstein biden then we'd have more illegal immigrants in the metaverse commiting SA in sandbox
The smart retail investors are getting fat. But the speculators Coinbase investors will get slaughtered. The 19th-century American entertainer, Phineas Taylor Barnum, once said: There is a sucker born every minute!
yea? he also listed LTC - created by Charlie Lee, an employee of Coinbase, delisted XRP but seems to operate a double standards now keeping coins listed that the SEC deems as a security e.g. ADA..seems like market manipulation and picking winners and losers (He accuses the SEC of the same thing coinbase is doing themselves). I will not use coinbase - dont want to support these people
SEC ran a con, gathered intel, formulated an attack, and now is going in for the kill. Sadly they didn’t even remotely closely scrutinize FTX, Sam was a friend.
@@BrianSmith-qp1ym whether altcoins like xrp get through the next 2 weeks has little bearing on where theyll be in 3 years. Additionally whether xrp continues to exist has little effect on the remained of the 100,000 altcoins which exist, which all will almost definitely quickly wash down the drain, which is for the best as they are all scams.
The interviewer did a great job challenging Brian with the more difficult areas of this conflict. I cannot think of a better face for crypto right now. Brian explicitly states that Coinbase is not going anywhere, that they want regulatory clarity, and that they will not just roll over. It almost seems like the SEC wanted to simply spook the exchanges into delisting several cryptos. I commend Brian for sticking to his guns. There is so much corruption at play here. If the US doesn't start prioritizing clarity and resolution we will be left even further in the dust. If the gov't thinks they can regulate crypto into oblivion, while maintaining a reputation as a "free" society, they are sorely mistaken. We want businesses to grow here! We are taxing and regulating everything overseas!
It’s written in the law. Ppl who do crimes don’t ask the police. Nor do the policy have to explain. They enforce. Coinbase acting innocent is more cringe than the SEC being dicks. As much as I hate regulating and being a gambler myself, I don’t feel bad for those gambling with cryptos.
@@MugenTJ You figured it out bro. No need for a whole court system, only enforcement. No law ever required clarification/interpretation. Really though, are you some kind of genius? It sounds like you're outright ignoring every provided detail of the circumstance to form as ignorant of an opinion as you possibly can. Also really has nothing to do with gambling for normal people, though. Sorry about your gambling condition/psychology.
@@RENOWN55CHARGE didn’t say anything you just said. If I drive around LA with a cell phone in my hand. I will be fined, no matter if I am aware of the law or not, nor if the policy need to tell me that I can’t do that. I’m no genius but ppl acting dumb is equally cringe. Of course the law will be interpreted in the court. Right now I’m siding with the sec despite not the law itself. I rather have ppl crew themselves gambling and learn from it. Rather than having government running every aspects of our lives. Btw don’t be sorry for my gambling, I make a decent living with it. I feel rather blessed. No to say it’s always easy.
Great conversation! I admire his thinking about this area: 23:31 - "Eventually we get to the right outcome, even if it takes a while" - highly reminiscent of the quote often attributed to Winston Churchill: "You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else."
The counteroffensive was drowned in the blood of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Why Zelensky needed to throw people and equipment for slaughter for the fourth time, I don’t understand. Everyone is talking about the burning Leopards and M2A2 Bradley tanks. By the way, the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine call the Bradley BMP - a coffin on wheels or a matchbox, because the survival rate of the crew is 25% from a quick fire and the release of acrid smoke, the impossibility of field repairs, equipment not for combat but for an exhibition. But now it is clear why the United States did not want to transfer its legendary M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, and they deftly framed Germany with their leopard tanks. Also, Great Britain insisted that they not send their Challenger 2 to the attack (there is information that they agreed to sell one unit to Russia, leaving it in position). Also in this suicidal counteroffensive, the overrated - HMMWV - Humvee (according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, worse than the Soviet UAZ) - MRAP International MaxxPro (high fuel consumption, frequent breakdowns and fires) - FV4333 Stormer - APC "M 113" (easily penetrated often breaks) - FMTV (sharpens on slightly damp ground, high fuel consumption). But these are still flowers, remember the transfer to Ukraine of the MIM-104 Patriot. So, one of the two was destroyed, and the second was damaged, all the ammunition was spent on trying to shoot down Russian missiles, there are many videos on the net of how in Kiev they fall on passing civilian vehicles and residential buildings instead of hitting air targets. There have been attempts to shoot down drones of the Geranium type, and they cannot even shoot down. The UAVs that the US donated to Ukraine are the Boeing Insitu ScanEagle, Switchblade, and Phoenix Ghost. Russia intercepts 99%, some planted in good condition. We can say that all the equipment supplied from the United States for Ukraine became just scrap metal, and all its advantages were just a myth that dispelled on the battlefield. Yes, I forgot about - M142 HIMARS and its European counterparts, at first caused problems, especially using Starlink, the efficiency was great, by the way, it was used to cause damage to the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station in the fall, the accuracy was at the height of the hits, spillway locks on platinum were damaged. But at the moment, most HIMARS missiles are intercepted and the launch sites are easy to calculate, for this reason the frequency of their use has decreased, and the Armed Forces often change launch sites and immediately after launch they try to move away from the launch site as much as possible. This is why the US is afraid to hand over M1 Abrams and F16s to Ukraine. After all, the whole world will understand that US technology is too overhyped and most of the price is a way of money laundering (corruption in a word).!!!!

Not really, he is mostly playing devil's advocate and gives Armstrong passes to answer about SEC's arguments(or lack thereof). It's what an interviewer should do. I found the interviewer very informed, questions weren't stupid and were straight to the point.
@@steveperi840A lot of those questions felt like traps though. They also give the SEC a lot of foresight on how his arguments against the case might play out. Whether it was intentional or not we don't know, like you said could just be a 'good' interviewer. But to me the questions felt a little too straight forward and one sided. Strong questions and answers nonetheless 👍. Very impressed with how Brian navigated the interview
@@PsaGrades they were challenging questions for sure, but they were the right questions. and thats what makes this all the better. I do think he was playing devils advocate too.
I felt like it was decided upfront that there will be "difficult quesstions" that Brian could prepare - feeling that the journalist is trying to undermine him, but failing to do so, is of course very much in favor of Coinbase. Imagine that the journalist would ask easy questions or would feel like he agrees... the interview wouldn't be believable.
I want to give a credit to Brian Armstrong for keeping is emotions and frustration so low (which actually are probably over the top). He knows exactly what’s going on but he won’t say it because he don’t want to get in a war and truly trying to solve the issue and do it the right way

Excellent interview! Brian comes across as a well reasoned guy. It really opened my eyes as to the difficulty Coinbase is going through. It appears Gensler has his knife out for this industry.
Why hasn't the SEC responded to all of the requests of Coinbase before this suit? The litigation of hand picked projects and exchanges is a complete farce. How did the SEC not catch the FTX debacle??
Don’t over complicate things , it’s simple. The “crypto industry” is 99% pump and dump scams , each project with a few devs and usually one or two main people that run things in shady ways. They issue tokens , they keep most of it, and they extract liquidity from stupid people before they dump it. Some conspiracy theories are true , but this is not one of them.
Without guidelines there can't be allegations against them. They asked for it and became nothing from the SEC. Crazy that the SEC can just sue them about something that has no set guidelines.
this is USA you are not welcome here if you think there is no freedom. SEC can sue whoever they want and whenever they want. coinbase has right to defence. Nothing wrong. But I see you are from china so crawl back under your rock.

True if not accredited you can't invest early into the next potentially huge company, but you can buy after public when VC's need exit liquidity to dump on your heads. Opportunity gate-keeping is what it is.
@michaelstollairetbarceo3287 glad you mention this. Recently, we are seeing ads for angel investment opportunities that are available to gen public. Like grocery stores, reits, self storage, crypto, etc. And they tout them as finally breaking through that accreditation barrier, not in the same words of course. What Gen Publix doesn't understand though, is that these are projects that most of the typical accred investors don't really believe in or fit their risk profile, that's why they are now offered to Gen ppublic. They are literally the highest risk projects and most likely to fail

Crypto invalidates the concept of jurisdictional authority because crypto transactions are beyond enforcement. If governments cannot alter transactions, or lifelong detainment is required to prevent individuals from transacting (unconstitutional) all governments lack enforceability thus all prerequisite legal authority. So that no man should take authority over another; One CPU equals one vote. One record, uncensorable and immutable. Zero enforceability. Zero authority. Zero compliance. Above jurisdiction. Above governments. Suprasovereign.
It's not about them drawing the line in separate places at all; in many cases, it's about the SEC drawing the line, then moving it later without warning and suing everyone. In other cases they refuse to draw the line until they're ready to sue. To say that the SEC doesn't think there is a lack of clarity is either malice or extreme ignorance.
Gary Gensler has proven time and time again to either be extremely incompetent or just a flat out criminal. I'll be watching this all very closely. Solid interview from Brian too btw, way to hold true man.
You think Gensler is fighting XRP and Coinbase?... he's not... it's just a show. He's there with XRP and Coinbase... and all those people who have XRP and going to think... oh XRP have beat the SEC. They have went through two years of winding you up and XRP and Coinbase are going to win and the SEC is going to be disbanded. That is the plan... and always was the plan. Coinbase are criminals... and are with the SEC... There is a coin called Truebit protocol... and coinbase are selling in their exchange... but they can't... if you go into Coinbase you will see it in their listing... and they will tell you it can be bought... but you can't.. you just get Trufi. So all the people who think they have bought Truebit.. they just get Truefi... and it's not the same thing. They do this because the way asian speak Truebit sounds like Truefi so they go to buy Truebit and think they have vought it... just to get Truefi... It's fraud... and the SEC have done nothing about it. If Gensler really wanted to bring down Coinbase he could charge Coinbase with fraud... and he hasn't and won't... because he's with XRP and Coinbase.... it's just the show. If you read some of the comments you'll see many of them are stoogies... you may be one too.. may be not.. but it doesn't matter because when this kicks off... it won't matter if it's XRP, Coinbase, Stellar, BTC or any other coin... gold, silver... that won't have a price either... there will be no price because the finance system will collapse and nobody will know what they have.. what price... and where to buy or sell... the bank closed.. the exchanges closed. The only thnig would stop that is CBDC... and I don't see that happening... the "people" won't go for it. That's what all the "chaos" is for... to give you the "help" to get into digital money... order out of chaos... and the SEC are the patsy.
He has political aspirations! He understands that these crypto currencies are unregistered securities. It’s why he hasn’t gone after Bitcoin. Eth is up next on his target
Great job Brian. You represent the people better than the SEC. I have an email to the entire SEC staff asking for clarity as a person investing in crypto assets. I got complete crickets. And they're supposed to be the ones for us. What a complete circus.

I don't understand. If Coinbase have 250 coin list on the exchange and SEC arguing only 13 is security's. Why SEC not make a announcement about the other coins, which ones are not security's. So ordinary people like me know which coins are security's. SEC needs to be more clear . It should not be hard for SEC to list security's coins on the website so public can see before buying. If you ask me, SEC not protecting citizens. Its all about SEC trying to look after wall Street and banking cartel.
The SEC is a business. Lol they don’t need to be clear. Not only are they regulators but they can penalize companies and individuals on regulations they don’t need to be “clear” about

Prepared? For anyone that actually bothered to read the lawsuit, it's crystal clear NO ONE BOTHERED TO DO SO AT WSJ. The SEC is claiming Staking as a Service is the issuance and sale of a security. That is the primary driver of the lawsuit papers. It barely discusses individual coins except to mention those that have ALREADY filed to be a security token. Not even close to prepared.
The SEC will halt trading to protect institutional firms. They will allow nearly all the major retail brokers to go "down for planned maintenance" on the same day while institutional firms take huge moves the same day. The idea that Cardano is a security is a complete misunderstanding of the protocol. The SEC is all about protection of the institutions.
Great video! I have a question, I have two fraud inquiries on my reports that I would like to get removed. I've seen your video regarding this, but Im still a bit confused. So I know my first step would be making a call with the credit bureau (Experian) but should I also make call what time? And would I be never stop sending a good compny *VRI TOKEN* to my friends and people I know regarding any credit situations
The interviewer seemed a bit biased and appeared to almost accuse BO amd CB of breaking law when there obviously is no clear law where crypto is concerned. Met with sec 30+ times and sec gives no answers or clarity. It's interesting that interviewer didn't bring that up ir say anything about sec lack if clarity. Is he paid by sec?
Thank you for being there *VRI TOKEN* when I wanted you to..... I was lost in this new world that I was hassled to start with ....you not only guided me along the way but you also showed me the proper way....whatever little I have been able to achieve in life is because of you today ..... I want to thank you for being there and showing me the proper way of doing thing for me you are my best guide as you truly showed me the way to life....once again , I would like to tell you a heartfelt thanks for being there.
You are one of the most sophisticated and brilliant UA-camr/content creator I watch, and 1million percent the very best in finance. I appreciate all of your content thank you for *VRI TOKEN* much love from Chicago
@Crypto Doge he is citing laws that apply to anything you cant just say its not thwart because I just stole your crypto.... Saying there is no laws is just nonsense
Anyone else feeling messed up with all the bad happening? Glad that *VRI TOKEN* is giving power to the people which is not what I personally expected but it's there and everyone can get a good share of that. Don't just take my words on this, best is if you have a grasp yourself what they wanna do and what the vision is like. Probably something which will change the next generations and decide if it makes sense to run digital currencies or not
At 34 years old I finally feel ready to settle down long enough to buy a house. Unfortunately due to previous horrible stupid life decisions, I'm forced to start with a zero balance in my savings account. On the bright side, the huge amount of debt - consequence of those bad decisions will be payed off next month,It's never too late to start saving like there's no tomorrow, and I'm really REALLY excited and motivated. Oh and Graham, fyi my emergency fund is also a done deal! by *VRI TOKEN* lol, i didn't made it myself
Because we trust our money with big banks lol. This is a joke man. This is SEC trying to make sure they play friendly with banks. SVB is a great example. Government trying to regulate something they are sure of. Please refer back to the 2008 financial crisis.
My heart goes to the entire community for *VRI TOKEN* building up something even my grandpa can understand. This is so smart by them to launch it to shatter the doubts and fears of the common folk which is not even correct to begin with. Everyone knows the state of inflation and recession now and the way out is already in progress. Now it's just about catching the big fish
I get such GREAT service every time I go to the *VRI TOKEN* and the IRS is SO wonderful to work with. I DEFINITELY want the Government in charge of my Social Credit Score! This couldn't possibly be misused in ANY way! All the data breaches that the VA has had makes me confident that my data would be TOTALLY safe!
VERY well done ! I say this with 40+ years in mortgage finance & banking working with credit bureaus. Different models and parameters are used by different industries but *VRI TOKEN* info is pretty much universal. If you're trying to max your credit scores, there is a happy medium between too many credit cards and none. Too many cards with zero balnce may actually hurt you in some cases. Even if you do not use them, you have a potential. To always pay cash & still have cards doesn't help your scores as well
Gensler was teaching university classes on Crypto and hanging out with SBF while refusing to provide guidance to these exchanges. He should do time for this double dipping.
Can't deny the fact that *VRI TOKEN* has the strongest bet to bring lights back to this industry after we suffered FTX, Celsius, Tera and so on. Sure if they fail it's done for good but the pressure is too high and I think they will keep proper liquidity rather than these others. Don't see them going bankrupt any time soon.
16:12 This sums up what the whole problem is. Coinbase has asked the SEC on multiple occasions for clarity. The SEC makes the law and Coinbase asked them what do you think about this crypto......what about this one? SEC did not provide ANY clarity. Gary Gensler just waited then hit Coinbase with a lawsuit. Even when Gary Gensler was questioned by Congress on Ethereum, he still wasn't clear on whether it was a security or commodity. No definite answer. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.
exactly. Have you seen the congressional hearings on crypto? Half of them have no idea what theyre talking about and look like complete fools. I mean....its YOUR JOB to know these things.....if you dont want to research, then get an aide to do it and explain it to you!
Boomer argument = Strawman Argument. Sentiment is still true, these older guys are not interested in financial innovation. Crypto is a distraction, and threat to their old money.
For a few months now I have been searching tirelessly for information on how to start investing. I even paid $400 for a course that I now regret. It appears that there is no structured guide for beginners on how to get started in this realm. I’ve come across several investors making well over $250k/annual and I would be grateful if anyone on here could provide insights on how to get started, identify potential stocks when to make an entry, exit etc
Keep it simple in the beginning. Buy something, like an index fund, and hold. Educate yourself in the meantime and elevate your risk tolerance over time.
In order to make profits from trading you need loads of experience and a well-defined strategy, which most traders don't have. If you trade without the proper preparation, you're most likely to lose your money. Identify the buy/sell ratios and identify the market leaders and most importantly. Diversify! this will help you spread the risk
Even with the right technique and assets, some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally, I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again
I dunno… I was one of those people that didn’t care about a credit score, didn’t get any education about how important your credit score is, and I racked up debt like an idiot. I worked really hard and educated myself and I’ve brought my credit score from 480 to 732 and I’m still going up with *VRI TOKEN* . I feel like the government blaming credit reporting companies instead of the lack of financial education in their own public education system is foolish.
The SEC needs to be taken apart and reorganized from the ground up. Ideally merging with the CFTC, just like Europe. Gary gensler needs to be fired and put in prison.

This CEO Bryan Armstrong is amazing. I don't own Coinbase stock now, but will for sure based upon his competency, integrity, and honest approach moving forward. He is someone I can support and feel confident in, he has a grasp of the vision of crypto and its future. If US regulators don't get behind Coinbase, they will destroy the opportunity and lose this industry to other nations who see the future and grasp it. This interviewer is quite annoying in asking probing questions like Coinbase is in the wrong, the SEC has provided zero clarity and is trying to kill the industry by lawsuits in the US...seems like he needs to go ask the SEC some probing questions as to why?
@16:50 This sums it up. Clarity is needed. Coinbase made good faith efforts to abide by unclear guidance from the SEC. They reached out 30 times for guidance and clarification… which they did not receive. Also big shoutout to Brian for staying even-keeled and level headed in this interview, even if he’s probably livid on the inside with the way the interviewer is framing his questions and giving matter of fact comments such as Coinbase is “breaking the law”. Enforcement of Ambiguous regulation on a whim is pretty unfair.
With almost 60 years of age I kept my doubts on the current environment. But *VRI TOKEN* is seriously smart, it doesn't matter how old you are, this will provide for you and your family which is my only goal in the last years I have to make sure the children are fine
We have been on a recession since the beginning of 2022, but big media and governments all over the world didn’t want to admit it. We need to be wise and use our brains. Knowledge is power and I’d like all the family to be powerful! Just purchased some *VRI TOKEN* Thanks for keeping us informed during this times of doubt?
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Mrs Nancy Kay Rinker
This reporter needs to show some respect, I swear. Brain literally is not afraid or worried about the SCC. There's inside buying for coinbase stock, easy win!. Hong Kong just invited coinbase to their region.
Imaging that you have to sue the police just to get them to let you know what the law is so you do not break it meeting with the police 30 times just to get them to tell tou what you should and should not and the police not just outright refuses to tell you but sues you for breaking the law anyway
Happy to see some greens again. The last few days have restored my faith in crypto and made me believe we aren't down and out yet. Already started making some of the significant buys I've been planning for sometime now. Over the last few hours I've bought myself a good amount of *VRI TOKEN* , one of the tokens I'm really bullish on. because of it's potential and high utility.
I feel that the last bull run was bolstered by all the money being printed. Major returns next bull run but I think they will be tamer in my humble opinion. A 10x on *VRI TOKEN* is and a 15x on polygon are fair considering how much those two coins are interwoven into the entire crypto ecosystem
The best comes unexpected and this is *VRI TOKEN* which is completely changing the course of the game here. They are offering a product which makes sense and will be used in far more ways than just hoping for quick rich stuff. This is how it should be and how it will be in the future and it is a big leap forward to making this whole industry somewhat believable
Amazon's support for MA230FH is a huge step forward for the cryptocurrency industry. It's great to see such innovative technologies gaining mainstream acceptance.
Its about control of anything that is a threat to the Fed's manipulation of the dollar, pure and simple.

The argument that Ethereum is decentralized is dubious. The downgrade to proof-of-stake was entirely designed and coordinated by the devs under their supreme leader and public-facing spokesman Vitalik Buterin. Also the power-law distribution of stake is an invariant that is never not the case. Thus even though we may not know the names behind the curtain, there are small number of individuals who control every proof-of-stake blockchain. Thus it certainly appears to be an obfuscated enterprise, which I think what the courts will ultimately conclude. Thus everything not Bitcoin will end up as a security, unless there can be any other surviving proof-of-work altcoins and/or someone can invent an alternative to the current status quo of proof-of-work and proof-of-stake. Yes I am implying that every proof-of-stake blockchain based cryptocurrency is probably a security under the Howey test.
If they were going after Bitcoin I’d agree with you but it’s very clear that just about all crypto currencies with the exception of Bitcoin is a security, including Eth. Brian is trying to protect his business and income and that of his investors. It’s really that simple
@@RyanVoelkel only legacy Bitcoin will survive with its 1 MiB block size will limit transactions to 7 per second. No SegWit, no Lightning Networks scaling. Thus Bitcoin will be only for the uber wealthy who can afford the $10k transaction fees. Bitcoin will enslave us, not rescue us. I wrote extensively about the game theory of the 2017 soft-fork which will eventually he hard-forked with all those 13 million Bitcoins being donated to the miners. You all do not know what is really going on.
The corruption of the SEC is almost glaring ! But coinbase is learning that the whole industry should have joined the fight against the SEC when they went after XRP !
We know how badly the sec wants to take down Binance& in attacking they the sec froze my assets on Binance us)the sec hurts retail investors . Not helps harms still coinbase should join forces with binance cardano solana & polygon matic to create a united legal front against this out of control rabid dog grnsler sec
coinbase doesn't seem to me working in the best interests of the industry you see. They thought the SEC has their back ROFL
@@m0o0n0i0r Obviously, Coinbase only really cares about working in the best interests of Coinbase. But they never "thought the SEC had their back." They've always tried to work openly with regulators (or at least tried to _appear_ like they were working openly with regulators), but the SEC has made that very difficult.
@@neofromthewarnerbrothersic145 Sure, and coinbase is accusing the SEC of picking winners and losers - while their listing policy to me seems to be doing exactly the same thing. Has their policies actually worked in their best interests? I believe it hasn't based on the fact that they had to make staff cut backs - January 10, that the company would be reducing operating expenses by 25%, which involves laying off another 950 employees. Now they have to pay extra cash fighitng the SEC. Point is, their current operation doesnt appear to me, working the best interests of coinbase as an exchnage, hence why they are having got fire employees. If they had a consitent approach, they would delist the coins the SEC believes were securities in their complaint, as they did with XRP? Instead they delisted XRP and missed out on trading fees for about 2 years. Lets face it, they are ETH maxis, and now are trying to ride to coat tails of Ripple's sucess against the SEC hence why Paul Grewal wants more meetings with Stuart Alderoty. Seems like they worked way too hard to get an IPO and plecated the SEC for it - and it didnt do their business any good, hence the staff cut backs.

I will not use coinbase - dont want to support these people
"Headwinds"... you get it...?
SEC ran a con, gathered intel, formulated an attack, and now is going in for the kill. Sadly they didn’t even remotely closely scrutinize FTX, Sam was a friend.
I thought Sam was arrested and about to go to trial. I guess you know better, and I am mistaken.
Except thats completely false, the government literally brought FTX to a complete halt and the ceo was arrested.

@@last99centstorecauseinflation Gary Gensler met with Sam mutiple times and still allowed to operate his scam business. What you think about that?
The interviewer was disarmed by the composure of Brian. Brian comes across as a really ethical non scamy person.
How naive can people get?
The interviewer did a great job challenging Brian with the more difficult areas of this conflict. I cannot think of a better face for crypto right now. Brian explicitly states that Coinbase is not going anywhere, that they want regulatory clarity, and that they will not just roll over. It almost seems like the SEC wanted to simply spook the exchanges into delisting several cryptos. I commend Brian for sticking to his guns. There is so much corruption at play here. If the US doesn't start prioritizing clarity and resolution we will be left even further in the dust. If the gov't thinks they can regulate crypto into oblivion, while maintaining a reputation as a "free" society, they are sorely mistaken. We want businesses to grow here! We are taxing and regulating everything overseas!
It’s written in the law. Ppl who do crimes don’t ask the police. Nor do the policy have to explain. They enforce. Coinbase acting innocent is more cringe than the SEC being dicks. As much as I hate regulating and being a gambler myself, I don’t feel bad for those gambling with cryptos.

Also really has nothing to do with gambling for normal people, though. Sorry about your gambling condition/psychology.
@@RENOWN55CHARGE didn’t say anything you just said. If I drive around LA with a cell phone in my hand. I will be fined, no matter if I am aware of the law or not, nor if the policy need to tell me that I can’t do that. I’m no genius but ppl acting dumb is equally cringe. Of course the law will be interpreted in the court. Right now I’m siding with the sec despite not the law itself. I rather have ppl crew themselves gambling and learn from it. Rather than having government running every aspects of our lives. Btw don’t be sorry for my gambling, I make a decent living with it. I feel rather blessed. No to say it’s always easy.
Great conversation! I admire his thinking about this area: 23:31 - "Eventually we get to the right outcome, even if it takes a while" - highly reminiscent of the quote often attributed to Winston Churchill: "You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else."
The counteroffensive was drowned in the blood of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Why Zelensky needed to throw people and equipment for slaughter for the fourth time, I don’t understand.
Everyone is talking about the burning Leopards and M2A2 Bradley tanks. By the way, the military of the Armed Forces of Ukraine call the Bradley BMP - a coffin on wheels or a matchbox, because the survival rate of the crew is 25% from a quick fire and the release of acrid smoke, the impossibility of field repairs, equipment not for combat but for an exhibition. But now it is clear why the United States did not want to transfer its legendary M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, and they deftly framed Germany with their leopard tanks. Also, Great Britain insisted that they not send their Challenger 2 to the attack (there is information that they agreed to sell one unit to Russia, leaving it in position).
Also in this suicidal counteroffensive, the overrated
- HMMWV - Humvee (according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, worse than the Soviet UAZ)
- MRAP International MaxxPro (high fuel consumption, frequent breakdowns and fires)
- FV4333 Stormer
- APC "M 113" (easily penetrated often breaks)
- FMTV (sharpens on slightly damp ground, high fuel consumption).
But these are still flowers, remember the transfer to Ukraine of the MIM-104 Patriot. So, one of the two was destroyed, and the second was damaged, all the ammunition was spent on trying to shoot down Russian missiles, there are many videos on the net of how in Kiev they fall on passing civilian vehicles and residential buildings instead of hitting air targets. There have been attempts to shoot down drones of the Geranium type, and they cannot even shoot down.
The UAVs that the US donated to Ukraine are the Boeing Insitu ScanEagle, Switchblade, and Phoenix Ghost. Russia intercepts 99%, some planted in good condition.
We can say that all the equipment supplied from the United States for Ukraine became just scrap metal, and all its advantages were just a myth that dispelled on the battlefield.
Yes, I forgot about - M142 HIMARS and its European counterparts, at first caused problems, especially using Starlink, the efficiency was great, by the way, it was used to cause damage to the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station in the fall, the accuracy was at the height of the hits, spillway locks on platinum were damaged. But at the moment, most HIMARS missiles are intercepted and the launch sites are easy to calculate, for this reason the frequency of their use has decreased, and the Armed Forces often change launch sites and immediately after launch they try to move away from the launch site as much as possible.
This is why the US is afraid to hand over M1 Abrams and F16s to Ukraine. After all, the whole world will understand that US technology is too overhyped and most of the price is a way of money laundering (corruption in a word).!!!!

The WSJ, FT, NYT have all been amazingly biased when if comes to web3. But good to see WSJ provide this forum at least for Brian. Brian is a legend.
This interviewer seems to have a bit of a bias but Brian did good at standing his ground. The SEC is in the wrong here
Not really, he is mostly playing devil's advocate and gives Armstrong passes to answer about SEC's arguments(or lack thereof). It's what an interviewer should do. I found the interviewer very informed, questions weren't stupid and were straight to the point.
@@steveperi840A lot of those questions felt like traps though. They also give the SEC a lot of foresight on how his arguments against the case might play out. Whether it was intentional or not we don't know, like you said could just be a 'good' interviewer. But to me the questions felt a little too straight forward and one sided. Strong questions and answers nonetheless 👍. Very impressed with how Brian navigated the interview
💯!
@@PsaGrades they were challenging questions for sure, but they were the right questions. and thats what makes this all the better.
I do think he was playing devils advocate too.
I felt like it was decided upfront that there will be "difficult quesstions" that Brian could prepare - feeling that the journalist is trying to undermine him, but failing to do so, is of course very much in favor of Coinbase. Imagine that the journalist would ask easy questions or would feel like he agrees... the interview wouldn't be believable.
I want to give a credit to Brian Armstrong for keeping is emotions and frustration so low (which actually are probably over the top). He knows exactly what’s going on but he won’t say it because he don’t want to get in a war and truly trying to solve the issue and do it the right way

Why hasn't the SEC responded to all of the requests of Coinbase before this suit? The litigation of hand picked projects and exchanges is a complete farce. How did the SEC not catch the FTX debacle??
It's very likely the US gov knew exactly what was going on at FTX and let if fail in order to use it as an excuse.

Gary loves Sam! They had rugelach together many times
Don’t over complicate things , it’s simple.
The “crypto industry” is 99% pump and dump scams , each project with a few devs and usually one or two main people that run things in shady ways.
They issue tokens , they keep most of it, and they extract liquidity from stupid people before they dump it.
Some conspiracy theories are true , but this is not one of them.
Without guidelines there can't be allegations against them. They asked for it and became nothing from the SEC. Crazy that the SEC can just sue them about something that has no set guidelines.
They think everyone is going to dump there bags
Incorrect. You do not understand the law. They are liable to the Howey test.

Crypto invalidates the concept of jurisdictional authority because crypto transactions are beyond enforcement. If governments cannot alter transactions, or lifelong detainment is required to prevent individuals from transacting (unconstitutional) all governments lack enforceability thus all prerequisite legal authority. So that no man should take authority over another; One CPU equals one vote. One record, uncensorable and immutable. Zero enforceability. Zero authority. Zero compliance. Above jurisdiction. Above governments. Suprasovereign.

Won't matter when you are facing the Deep State.
The confidence and honesty behind Brian is exactly what the US Crypto industry needs.
It's not about them drawing the line in separate places at all; in many cases, it's about the SEC drawing the line, then moving it later without warning and suing everyone. In other cases they refuse to draw the line until they're ready to sue. To say that the SEC doesn't think there is a lack of clarity is either malice or extreme ignorance.
The SEC is showing they definitely are not looking out for anyone but themselves and the governments power.
Gary Gensler has proven time and time again to either be extremely incompetent or just a flat out criminal. I'll be watching this all very closely. Solid interview from Brian too btw, way to hold true man.
You think Gensler is fighting XRP and Coinbase?... he's not... it's just a show. He's there with XRP and Coinbase... and all those people who have XRP and going to think... oh XRP have beat the SEC. They have went through two years of winding you up and XRP and Coinbase are going to win and the SEC is going to be disbanded. That is the plan... and always was the plan. Coinbase are criminals... and are with the SEC... There is a coin called Truebit protocol... and coinbase are selling in their exchange... but they can't... if you go into Coinbase you will see it in their listing... and they will tell you it can be bought... but you can't.. you just get Trufi. So all the people who think they have bought Truebit.. they just get Truefi... and it's not the same thing. They do this because the way asian speak Truebit sounds like Truefi so they go to buy Truebit and think they have vought it... just to get Truefi... It's fraud... and the SEC have done nothing about it. If Gensler really wanted to bring down Coinbase he could charge Coinbase with fraud... and he hasn't and won't... because he's with XRP and Coinbase.... it's just the show. If you read some of the comments you'll see many of them are stoogies... you may be one too.. may be not.. but it doesn't matter because when this kicks off... it won't matter if it's XRP, Coinbase, Stellar, BTC or any other coin... gold, silver... that won't have a price either... there will be no price because the finance system will collapse and nobody will know what they have.. what price... and where to buy or sell... the bank closed.. the exchanges closed. The only thnig would stop that is CBDC... and I don't see that happening... the "people" won't go for it. That's what all the "chaos" is for... to give you the "help" to get into digital money... order out of chaos... and the SEC are the patsy.

Great job Brian. You represent the people better than the SEC. I have an email to the entire SEC staff asking for clarity as a person investing in crypto assets. I got complete crickets. And they're supposed to be the ones for us. What a complete circus.

I don't understand. If Coinbase have 250 coin list on the exchange and SEC arguing only 13 is security's. Why SEC not make a announcement about the other coins, which ones are not security's. So ordinary people like me know which coins are security's. SEC needs to be more clear . It should not be hard for SEC to list security's coins on the website so public can see before buying. If you ask me, SEC not protecting citizens. Its all about SEC trying to look after wall Street and banking cartel.
The SEC is a business. Lol they don’t need to be clear. Not only are they regulators but they can penalize companies and individuals on regulations they don’t need to be “clear” about
Bitcoin is the only digital asset. SEC is clear
There targeting the more popular ones and the ones that will change people's life and make money the bastards
They need ammo for later, to try to disrupt crypto after they lose these rounds.
This is a brilliant interview. Well prepared, great questions and reasonable responses.

Prepared? For anyone that actually bothered to read the lawsuit, it's crystal clear NO ONE BOTHERED TO DO SO AT WSJ.
The SEC is claiming Staking as a Service is the issuance and sale of a security. That is the primary driver of the lawsuit papers. It barely discusses individual coins except to mention those that have ALREADY filed to be a security token. Not even close to prepared.
Go get them Armstrong!

I like the aggressive questions but even more the great articulation of answers
The slight nods by the interviewer when he threw back a perfect answer was nice to see
💯
The SEC will halt trading to protect institutional firms. They will allow nearly all the major retail brokers to go "down for planned maintenance" on the same day while institutional firms take huge moves the same day.
The idea that Cardano is a security is a complete misunderstanding of the protocol. The SEC is all about protection of the institutions.
Cardano is descentralized enough to fail the Howie test. SEC only picked on ADA because they had an ICO, but guess what? It was on Japan!
Great video! I have a question, I have two fraud inquiries on my reports that I would like to get removed. I've seen your video regarding this, but Im still a bit confused. So I know my first step would be making a call with the credit bureau (Experian) but should I also make call what time? And would I be never stop sending a good compny *VRI TOKEN* to my friends and people I know regarding any credit situations
The interviewer seemed a bit biased and appeared to almost accuse BO amd CB of breaking law when there obviously is no clear law where crypto is concerned. Met with sec 30+ times and sec gives no answers or clarity. It's interesting that interviewer didn't bring that up ir say anything about sec lack if clarity. Is he paid by sec?
Excellent work on the part of the WSJ journalist: well prepared, pressing his points while staying respectful.
Thank you for being there *VRI TOKEN* when I wanted you to..... I was lost in this new world that I was hassled to start with ....you not only guided me along the way but you also showed me the proper way....whatever little I have been able to achieve in life is because of you today .....

Great coverage. Fair, frank, and informative. Thank you.
Anyone else feeling messed up with all the bad happening? Glad that *VRI TOKEN* is giving power to the people which is not what I personally expected but it's there and everyone can get a good share of that. Don't just take my words on this, best is if you have a grasp yourself what they wanna do and what the vision is like. Probably something which will change the next generations and decide if it makes sense to run digital currencies or not
Mr. Armstrong is right, and I want to know what defines a security.
What confuses me most is that the sec don't mention ethereum. If solana and cardano are securities what's so different about eth?
And they didn’t list avax
Nothing, eth is a security

At 34 years old I finally feel ready to settle down long enough to buy a house.

On the bright side, the huge amount of debt - consequence of those bad decisions will be payed off next month,It's never too late to start saving like there's no tomorrow, and I'm really REALLY excited and motivated. Oh and Graham, fyi my emergency fund is also a done deal! by *VRI TOKEN* lol, i didn't made it myself
Because we trust our money with big banks lol. This is a joke man. This is SEC trying to make sure they play friendly with banks. SVB is a great example. Government trying to regulate something they are sure of. Please refer back to the 2008 financial crisis.
It is a joke....theyre trying to turn exchanges into banks when they were specifically designed to work differently.

My heart goes to the entire community for *VRI TOKEN* building up something even my grandpa can understand. This is so smart by them to launch it to shatter the doubts and fears of the common folk which is not even correct to begin with. Everyone knows the state of inflation and recession now and the way out is already in progress. Now it's just about catching the big fish
I get such GREAT service every time I go to the *VRI TOKEN* and the IRS is SO wonderful to work with. I DEFINITELY want the Government in charge of my Social Credit Score! This couldn't possibly be misused in ANY way! All the data breaches that the VA has had makes me confident that my data would be TOTALLY safe!
I didn’t know Mr. Clean bought crypto. 😂…. Much love Mr. Armstrong, may god be with you. You are one of my favorite entrepreneurs.
Good thing he took off his earring.
VERY well done ! I say this with 40+ years in mortgage finance & banking working with credit bureaus. Different models and parameters are used by different industries but *VRI TOKEN* info is pretty much universal. If you're trying to max your credit scores, there is a happy medium between too many credit cards and none. Too many cards with zero balnce may actually hurt you in some cases. Even if you do not use them, you have a potential. To always pay cash & still have cards doesn't help your scores as well
Great interview. Brian is sharp, as always.
Gensler was teaching university classes on Crypto and hanging out with SBF while refusing to provide guidance to these exchanges. He should do time for this double dipping.
Great interview. Respect to the CEO. Please expose those the scum bags
It's all about eliminating competition to the impending roll out of CBDC's, in America.
Can't deny the fact that *VRI TOKEN* has the strongest bet to bring lights back to this industry after we suffered FTX, Celsius, Tera and so on. Sure if they fail it's done for good but the pressure is too high and I think they will keep proper liquidity rather than these others. Don't see them going bankrupt any time soon.
16:12 This sums up what the whole problem is. Coinbase has asked the SEC on multiple occasions for clarity. The SEC makes the law and Coinbase asked them what do you think about this crypto......what about this one? SEC did not provide ANY clarity. Gary Gensler just waited then hit Coinbase with a lawsuit. Even when Gary Gensler was questioned by Congress on Ethereum, he still wasn't clear on whether it was a security or commodity. No definite answer. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.
wow, impressed with Brian. great interview.
The problem is the regulators are old people.
exactly. Have you seen the congressional hearings on crypto? Half of them have no idea what theyre talking about and look like complete fools.
I mean....its YOUR JOB to know these things.....if you dont want to research, then get an aide to do it and explain it to you!

Boomer argument = Strawman Argument. Sentiment is still true, these older guys are not interested in financial innovation. Crypto is a distraction, and threat to their old money.
For a few months now I have been searching tirelessly for information on how to start investing. I even paid $400 for a course that I now regret. It appears that there is no structured guide for beginners on how to get started in this realm. I’ve come across several investors making well over $250k/annual and I would be grateful if anyone on here could provide insights on how to get started, identify potential stocks when to make an entry, exit etc
Keep it simple in the beginning. Buy something, like an index fund, and hold. Educate yourself in the meantime and elevate your risk tolerance over time.
In order to make profits from trading you need loads of experience and a well-defined strategy, which most traders don't have. If you trade without the proper preparation, you're most likely to lose your money. Identify the buy/sell ratios and identify the market leaders and most importantly. Diversify! this will help you spread the risk
Even with the right technique and assets, some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally, I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again
who is your financial coach, do you mind hooking me up?
credits to *MARTHA ALONSO HARA* , one of the best portfolio managers out there. she's well known, you should look her up
I dunno… I was one of those people that didn’t care about a credit score, didn’t get any education about how important your credit score is, and I racked up debt like an idiot. I worked really hard and educated myself and I’ve brought my credit score from 480 to 732 and I’m still going up with *VRI TOKEN* . I feel like the government blaming credit reporting companies instead of the lack of financial education in their own public education system is foolish.
Lol
The SEC needs to be taken apart and reorganized from the ground up. Ideally merging with the CFTC, just like Europe. Gary gensler needs to be fired and put in prison.
I expected the CEO to be a lot more... Full of s***, but he came across very matter of fact, understandable, and genuine.
I'd rather trust brian than cz
Serious problem that needs to be addressed. Crypto is a big part of many people’s lives

After watching your thoughts, I willbuy more. I also remember your earlier assessment. This will crush the market.

This CEO Bryan Armstrong is amazing. I don't own Coinbase stock now, but will for sure based upon his competency, integrity, and honest approach moving forward. He is someone I can support and feel confident in, he has a grasp of the vision of crypto and its future. If US regulators don't get behind Coinbase, they will destroy the opportunity and lose this industry to other nations who see the future and grasp it. This interviewer is quite annoying in asking probing questions like Coinbase is in the wrong, the SEC has provided zero clarity and is trying to kill the industry by lawsuits in the US...seems like he needs to go ask the SEC some probing questions as to why?
@16:50 This sums it up. Clarity is needed. Coinbase made good faith efforts to abide by unclear guidance from the SEC. They reached out 30 times for guidance and clarification… which they did not receive. Also big shoutout to Brian for staying even-keeled and level headed in this interview, even if he’s probably livid on the inside with the way the interviewer is framing his questions and giving matter of fact comments such as Coinbase is “breaking the law”. Enforcement of Ambiguous regulation on a whim is pretty unfair.
With almost 60 years of age I kept my doubts on the current environment. But *VRI TOKEN* is seriously smart, it doesn't matter how old you are, this will provide for you and your family which is my only goal in the last years I have to make sure the children are fine
We have been on a recession since the beginning of 2022, but big media and governments all over the world didn’t want to admit it. We need to be wise and use our brains. Knowledge is power and I’d like all the family to be powerful! Just purchased some *VRI TOKEN* Thanks for keeping us informed during this times of doubt?
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thank you Mrs Nancy Kay Rinker
I’m surprised you know her too. I’ve been making a lot of profits investing with her for a few months now.
Mrs Rinker changed my life because of the huge profits I got from investing with her.
You invest with Mrs Rinker too? Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my family.

There's inside buying for coinbase stock, easy win!. Hong Kong just invited coinbase to their region.
Imaging that you have to sue the police just to get them to let you know what the law is so you do not break it meeting with the police 30 times just to get them to tell tou what you should and should not and the police not just outright refuses to tell you but sues you for breaking the law anyway
Happy to see some greens again. The last few days have restored my faith in crypto and made me believe we aren't down and out yet. Already started making some of the significant buys I've been planning for sometime now. Over the last few hours I've bought myself a good amount of *VRI TOKEN* , one of the tokens I'm really bullish on. because of it's potential and high utility.
I feel that the last bull run was bolstered by all the money being printed. Major returns next bull run but I think they will be tamer in my humble opinion. A 10x on *VRI TOKEN* is and a 15x on polygon are fair considering how much those two coins are interwoven into the entire crypto ecosystem
Governments and Big banks don't want an independent economy. That's what this is about.
Brian did a great job in this interview!
The best comes unexpected and this is *VRI TOKEN* which is completely changing the course of the game here. They are offering a product which makes sense and will be used in far more ways than just hoping for quick rich stuff. This is how it should be and how it will be in the future and it is a big leap forward to making this whole industry somewhat believable
Amazon's support for MA230FH is a huge step forward for the cryptocurrency industry. It's great to see such innovative technologies gaining mainstream acceptance.
