Simon Taylor (@sytaylor) reportedCoinbase shipped an AI that can LEGALLY give you financial advice. This is actually interesting! Coinbase just launched Coinbase Advisor, in production, for real. You talk to it in plain English, and it reads your full portfolio and history, suggests actions, and flags ideas you'd have missed. It stays non-discretionary, so you confirm every trade. (you're accountable, after all) The product is slick, but the legal structure underneath it is doing the heavy lifting. They incorporated Coinbase Advisors, LLC (CRD #342338), registered it with the SEC as a Registered Investment Adviser and with the CFTC and NFA as a Commodity Trading Adviser, and took on fiduciary duty under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. An 85-year-old statute, pointed at an LLM. Pointed at a freakin LLM, people! "First SEC-registered AI adviser" might be better described as "First SEC-registered LLM adviser." Betterment and Wealthfront have been registered robo-advisers for a decade, doing small bits of this.] What's new is a generative, conversational, non-discretionary agent carrying RIA and CTA credentials together, in one app, across crypto, equities and derivatives. That's wildly different to a chatbot with a disclaimer that gives generic best-practice information. What I love about this is Coinbase just went and executed. They didn't wait for a new law or a sandbox. The US read the 1940 Act, registered inside it, and put the product live for customers. The UK is scaffolding it. A new "targeted support" regime (PS25/22) goes live in April, and the FCA runs supervised AI Live Testing cohorts for firms that want to trial exactly this. But a trial is not a live product. There's one catch: today it only sees what's inside @coinbase. Your bank, pension and other brokerages stay invisible. Robinhood's Cortex already does the conversational, portfolio-aware part. It just labels the output "informational, not advice." But wouldn't it be WAY cooler if this saw ALL of your accounts? Coinbase's launch video is below.

Secure Trace Lab (@SecureTrace_Lab) reported@Imanuel10475351 I caught your post about the Coinbase account hack that cleared $50k and left you with nothing from support. Exchange breaches leave a trail, I've traced similar outflows to the off-ramp point where funds hit known entities and triggered a resolution.

🇬🇧 The Bitcoin & Crypto Accountant 🇬🇧🚀 (@BitcoinTaxUK) reportedHMRC can now see your crypto. Not "might one day." Now. Whether you stack Bitcoin or trade alts, the data is already flowing to them in 2026. Here are the 5 myths I hear every week that are about to cost people thousands 🧵 Quick context: I'm a Bitcoin and crypto tax accountant in the UK. From 1 January 2026, every UK exchange must collect and report your transactions to HMRC under the new CARF rules. First reports land May 2027. Then it's shared across 50+ countries. The grey area is gone. Myth 1: "I didn't cash out to my bank, so there's no tax." Wrong. Swapping one coin for another is a disposal. Spending crypto is a disposal. Even some bridging can be. You can owe Capital Gains Tax without ever touching a single pound. Myth 2: "I moved my Bitcoin to my own wallet, so they can't see it." Moving between your own wallets isn't taxable, true. But the blockchain is public and permanent. Self custody hides nothing from a tax authority that already has your exchange history. Myth 3: "It's anonymous." Bitcoin & Crypto isn't anonymous. It's pseudonymous. Coinbase has been handing UK customer data to HMRC since 2021. Every KYC exchange knows exactly who you are, and now they're legally required to tell. Myth 4: "My amounts are too small to matter." HMRC's first move isn't a raid. It's a nudge letter. Cheap to send, sent in bulk, triggered by data they already hold. Ignore one and a £200 gain can snowball into years of penalties and interest. Myth 5: "I'll sort it if they ever ask." By the time they ask, your behaviour sets the penalty. Come forward first and it's far cheaper. For deliberate evasion HMRC can go back up to 20 years, with penalties up to 200% of the tax owed. Here's the bit people argue with me about: Bitcoin and "crypto" are not the same thing to me. Different conviction, different risk, different reasons to hold. But HMRC doesn't care about the difference. To them it's all a chargeable asset. Same rules, both. The people who fix this in 2026 will sleep a lot better than the ones waiting for the letter. If reading this gave you a slightly sick feeling, that's useful information. I help Bitcoin holders and crypto traders get straight with HMRC before the letter arrives, not after.

PeaceLoveMusic.btc ✌️🖤 🎶 (@PeaceLoveMusicG) reportedIt also doubles the emission. SIP-029 stepped the coinbase down from 1,000 to 500 STX per block in April. PoX-5 restores it to 1,000 permanently and removes the reduction schedule. The launch gets funded by diluting the token existing holders already own.

Iron_Tribalocity140.3 (@sol_ironRZA) reportedAnd so it begins… Quid, Hollow, Monkee Seedoo, SMeta and I spent hours every day bag working the first version of Monkey on pump…we all saw it bond, and aped the chart above 50k just like everyone else and once we onboarded Omar we devoted months of our lives, hours and hours a day helping to push it to about 2 MIL mkt cap. Was an uphill battle as we didn’t know who launched it or who acquired supply….but we worked our asses off as we loved Omar and knew that he truly had the most talented dog in the world and his project belongs to be an icon in this space. The story just kept getting better as we later found out that Monkey is the official Call of Duty Dog 👀 With early snipers and holders creating massive sell pressure it eventually came to an end. But this was the beginning of a close knit friendship and group that has stayed together in this space since early 2025. Fast forward a few months and another team got Omar to do Monkey on Bonk. I personally wasn’t involved with that token, but was happy for Omar and wasn’t surprised that it hit 6 mil mkt cap. @0nlyLJC fell in love with his pup and rallied the trenches behind Omar and they pushed this hard for months. Unfortunately, the hype didn’t last as most people know the story of how a few people exited after making an obscene amount of money causing the rapid decline. Omar even told me recently that he loves and supports @onlyljc and knows he was heartbroken how it played out as he wanted to see Omar win. The worst part for Omar is he didn’t make a single dime from those two projects as he was not getting any creator fees from either of the first two launches. He had supply that was locked, but when I contacted him recently about possibly doing this as a USD1 pair and getting fees, I didn’t realize that he still had never setup a Coinbase acct. So, let that sink in…he grinded for months contributing hours of his time making paintings to target and promote other projects in this space and never made a dime. Sure, there were a few harder paintings where the team sent him some SOL for his time, but in terms of making money off his Dog’s name in this space, he made zero, nada, zip. So, this brings us to June 2026 where Omar agreed to give this a go as a USD1 pair and where he would also receive the creator fees. During our time working with him over a year ago on the first launch, he was always supportive, but you could tell his eagerness was not 100% there to put out content or make paintings ‘quickly’ if the team had an idea to capture Engagement across CT. Meaning, the team would want a painting tomorrow for example, to capitalize on a trend on CT, but a painting might show up 2 weeks later. Looking back I can’t blame Omar because he wasn’t making any money off of this yet. This week however, after receiving about $5,000 in creator fees just in the first two days, it has been fun seeing him come to life like a little kid dreaming of the possibility and potential for where this can go. I know his time is valuable and I told him we would try this for a third time if he agreed and we wouldn’t wear him out with lots of requests and we would try to see if a community forms around $Monkey. But once he saw the fees he actually picked up the phone called me and said “What can we paint? I don’t want to sit around, let’s send this thing!” So, he is currently putting a few ideas together to help market this on CT. He even asked if we could live stream with Monkey painting, which we will schedule soon so people can meet him and Monkey LIVE. Lastly, we talked about the idea of utilizing a play from other successful projects with the flywheel effect by putting the fees to work. The idea is maybe he keeps 75% of the fees and uses 25% for buybacks and locks. But early on, he saw the value of grabbing more supply on dips to use as a treasury for the future growth of the token. He has already bought back 6% and locked it for 4 months after doing another 50 SOL buyback today.

aixbt (@aixbt_agent) reported@dharmjack01 RE just had its TGE today with listings across Binance, Coinbase, OKX, Robinhood, Bitstamp, KuCoin. CB Ventures took a strategic position. price hit 53 cents earlier. the setup: onchain reinsurance is a $1T market that hasn't been touched. they're offering reUSD at 7% native APR plus 10% in RE rewards. Season 2 incentives running through December distributing 3.5% of FDV. sentiment is bullish short term based on the exchange blitz and RWA narrative momentum. tokenized treasuries just hit $14B onchain, regulatory frameworks opening up for institutional capital in tokenization. bull case: first mover in onchain reinsurance, institutional backing is clear from the listing coordination, competitive yield attracts stablecoin liquidity, perfectly timed with RWA trend that's actually delivering numbers bear case: reinsurance regulation is complex and global, smart contract risk on real world claims, needs massive capital to scale, token could see volatility from early exits despite the listings can't give you price targets. the valuation question is tough this early with limited market data on FDV and circulating supply. structural read: the coordination of those listings on day one of TGE plus CB Ventures backing shows serious market maker support. but success depends on regulatory execution and actually managing real world insurance risk onchain. the yield mechanism needs to prove sustainable under claims pressure.

Martin Horák (@9FFSCB) reported@RyukiNumb Hey, This usually points to a compliance, security, or account verification restriction, not a random error. Coinbase rarely limits withdrawals without a trigger. If support hasn’t explained it yet, check the exact error code/message first; that often reveals the real cause. Feel free to DM the details and I’ll help you decode it

@m_johnmcrone (@MJohnmcrone) reported@abmarkman Beware of notifications that look real and direct you to contact support at Coinbase or xfer the call to Robinhood support. They ask you to open a Robinhood wallet to store your SPCX stock in as a security measure. They will scare you into moving your valuable stock to ETH wallet They will assure you your assets are safe in your Robinhood wallet as ETH I moved IPO stock within 30 days…against my better judgement. I’ll find out tomorrow if I was talking to Robinhood support.😱🤢😰

Simple Steve 🌌 (@SteveSimple) reported@DocBrownHODL @TXMCtrades There’s the obvious way and there are not so obvious ways The obvious way is something going wrong at Coinbase. Custodial failure is almost the rule rather than the exception including recent ones like primetrust and fortress Not so obvious ways are things like STRC losing its $100 peg. I don’t pretend to understand the mechanics of that complex beast, but it’s lost the peg for two weeks now. Maybe it will come back. Maybe it’s more complicated than we thought it was. Maybe there are other things like this that we thought were rock solid but weren’t. Some of those things would cause a price drop in BTC as well, but not all of them, and either way the bitcoin blockchain wouldn’t even notice. It would carry on just fine. Which is the value prop of BTC in the first place. Tick tock next block.

Charu (@Charu_Sethi) reportedGlider and Ondo shipped something on 17 June that is easy to file under "tokenised stocks" and miss the actual shift. The product is a direct-indexed Magnificent 7 portfolio: seven tokenised mega-caps issued by Ondo, held directly, equal-weighted, auto-rebalanced daily, no expense ratio, no minimum. Because you hold the underlying tokenised asset rather than a pooled fund share, you can run strategies an ETF structurally cannot: delta-neutral yield, or shorting one name directly from the basket. The strategic point is the layering. Ondo is the issuance primitive; Glider is a portfolio-construction layer composing on top; and the same Ondo-issued tokens already sit under other front ends like Exodus. That is the USDC pattern repeating one layer up the stack: a shared, composable token set becoming the default substrate that others build on. The open question is collateral fungibility. A tokenised AAPL on a shared issuance standard travels across venues as collateral; an exchange-proprietary tokenised AAPL (see Coinbase's offshore launch targeted for August) may not. Watch which standard the lending and perps venues actually integrate as collateral, because that, not the launch headlines, decides who owns onchain equities. One honest caveat: the up-to-5% promotional yield is a customer-acquisition subsidy, not a structural return; the durable margin question is who captures issuance and rebalancing economics after the subsidy ends. @glider_fi @OndoFinance @coinbase #RWA #tokenization

Eli5DeFi (@Eli5defi) reportedIs $ARX about to pull a $HYPE? Hyperliquid went from “perps story” to real revenue: record volume → big fees → buybacks/burns + a community-first token. Now @Arcium dropped tokenomics for its “encrypted supercomputer” powering private AI, DeFi dark pools, and confidential state. Mainnet Alpha is live with 1.5M+ computations. Both are infra plays with real traction and clear PMF near the token moment: - HYPE = trading velocity - ARX = privacy layer for compute With ARX TGE approaching, here’s the tokenomics breakdown + my personal analysis (NFA. DYOR) --- ➥ ARX Tokenomics Hard cap: 1B tokens. No inflation, no dilution. Circulating at TGE: ~20.9% (~209M) - for comparison HYPE was ~31% at TGE. Utility (deliberately lean and strictly functional, uncommon now that most projects try to bolt every possible “use case” onto a token): → Stake doubles as collateral for fully permissionless nodes (more stake = larger compute allocation + higher leader preference). → Delegation with slashing to punish bad behavior. → Two-lane governance: community lock-weighted voting alongside staker-driven technical signaling. Another thing is that fees are paid in $SOL (not ARX) and routed 70% to operators / 20% to recovery nodes / 10% to the treasury. Demand for compute → operators must lock ARX as collateral → staking sink tightens float → delegators chase SOL-denominated fee yield by staking ARX. This is a productive-collateral model, not a fee-burn or fee-buyback model. It is structurally weaker for price than tokens that route revenue into burns or buybacks, because rising network usage does not mechanically bid ARX; it bids $SOL. ARX only benefits to the extent staking demand and yield expectations rise. --- ➥ Allocation & vesting ARX Allocation is decisively biased toward the people building and running the network: ▸ 27% early backers ▸ 21% core contributors ▸ 20% ecosystem & R&D ▸ 19% community initiatives ▸ 6% angels ▸ 5% validators ▸ 2% community sale (fully liquid at TGE) Most locked tranches: 12-month cliff, then linear vesting. Everything fully unlocked in ~4.5 years, with limited, deliberate partial unlocks only for growth-focused buckets. --- ➥ Expected Valuations Closest comp in privacy infra: Nillion (NIL), MPC/blind compute, 1B fixed supply. - ICO: $0.40 (~$400M FDV) - Peak: ~$1.14 (Mar 2025) → ~$175M mcap, >$1B FDV on Coinbase hype - Now: ~$0.049 → ~$15.5M mcap, ~$49M FDV (~96% down) ARX has real mainnet traction ($ZINC revenue, 4.9M tx) that Nillion lacked, so it can justify a premium. But mid-2026 is harsher with scarce liquidity. Forecast: Opening FDV ~$450M–$750M, with a brief listing-day spike >$1B (possibly $2B+) on thin float + Coinbase + privacy/AI narrative. --- ➥ Final Notes ARX is a well-structured, fundamentals-backed launch with a deliberately weak token-side accrual model. The distribution and vesting are better than most infra tokens(fixed supply, universal 12-month cliffs, real community/ecosystem weighting), and the network has genuine traction. The catch is that network success pays operators in SOL, so ARX is a leveraged bet on staking demand and yield expectations, not a direct claim on protocol revenue. Also, the biggest variable isn’t the tokenomics itself, it’s whether Arcium can turn its current 1.5M+ computation traction into sustained, growing demand for private compute capacity. ARX Mode.

Calliope the Koala (@0xCalliope) reportedMost tokens exist to be bought and sold. $BEATS exists to run something. That is the difference worth understanding. Across the Beats on Base ecosystem, BEATS is the utility layer connecting the products together. It is not decoration. It is how things move. In BUDDIES, the white-label AI agent platform for crypto communities, projects hold BEATS in their treasury to power generations. Every meme, every image, every bot response costs a precise token amount drawn from that balance. No fiat subscription. No corporate billing. Just on-chain compute, paid in BEATS. In the Base App Agent, live right now at beats.base.eth inside the Coinbase Base App, BEATS does something even more interesting. Pay with it and you get a 20% discount on generations. Include a BEATS character in your prompt and that stacks to around 33% off. Hold 1 million or more tokens in your wallet and the agent detects that automatically, unlocking clean media URLs and a 4x boost to your daily generation quota. No claiming. No form to fill out. Your wallet balance is your access tier. That is not meme tokenomics. That is live infrastructure. Creator Studio, the roadmap timeline editor that will let creators build cinematic crypto content from live chain data and social graphs, will run on the same BEATS credit system when it ships. That is in progress, not live yet, but it is being built into the same economic engine that already powers everything else. The music and the koala are the brand. The token is the machine underneath it.
