  Everything is ******* AI or about AI can we finally send a proper AI meme that sucks up the volume? $AI OnlyUpStartupSlopAgentBubblea16z - Solanas entire meeting today was about AI and how they are going to focus on making agents able to use the chain - Coinbase (and basically every other company) is replacing their workforce with Ai - AI is the single most profitable business right now and the only thing driving the market up - Literally everything is about AI. Think of anything that plays a role in our space and its somehow connected to Ai. - Time to finally tokenize this **** and have a sendor for it as a whole instead of every single agent each

  Yesterday we have found out that Coinbase laid off 14% of its workforce ( around 700 people). This isn’t just another tech layoff, it’s a signal of where the industry is going. The headline reason? Seems to be AI CEO Brian Armstrong says teams can now do in days what used to take weeks and that means fewer people leads to more output. Coinbase is restructuring into a lean, AI native company built around smaller, faster teams but it’s not just AI hype. The crypto market has been shaky, with lower trading activity and weaker sentiment. Cost cutting was coming either way. The structure is changing too: • fewer management layers • no pure managers • leaders expected to do the work, not just oversee it So @coinbase is even experimenting with one person teams and hybrid roles like engineering + product + design so basically Ai augmented generalists/specialists. This is part of a bigger trend. Tech layoffs are rising again in 2026 and AI is increasingly being used as the justification but the uncomfortable reality it’s AI isn’t just a tool, it’s becoming a replacement lever especially for middle management, support roles and repetitive workflows Coinbase says the move is about being lean, fast, and efficient but the critics are sayin that we’re watching the early stages of AI driven job compression. Both can be true. The big picture is that this isn’t just a crypto story it’s a preview of how companies may look in 3–5 years: smaller teams, fewer layers, AI everywhere. The real question is , if you ask me, if one person plus AI can replace a team what happens to everyone else?

  COINBASE CUTS 14% OF GLOBAL WORKFORCE AS CEO DECLARES COMPANY WILL REBUILD AS AN “INTELLIGENCE” Coinbase announced Tuesday it will cut approximately 700 employees, representing 14% of its global workforce as of May 1, 2026, citing a combination of crypto market volatility and AI accelerating how the company operates, according to an SEC filing and a memo from CEO Brian Armstrong. The restructuring will be substantially complete in the second quarter of 2026 and is expected to generate $50 to $60 million in total charges, substantially all of which are cash costs tied to severance and termination benefits. US employees affected receive at least 16 weeks of base pay plus two weeks for every year of service, along with their next equity vest and six months of healthcare continuation coverage. Coinbase shares fell approximately 2.5% on the announcement. Armstrong described the cuts in a public post on X as more than a cost reduction. “We are not just reducing headcount and cutting costs, we’re fundamentally changing how we operate: rebuilding Coinbase as an intelligence, with humans around the edge aligning it,” he wrote. The restructuring eliminates what Armstrong called “pure managers,” replacing them with leaders who also serve as individual contributors. Management layers will be capped at five below the CEO and COO. The company plans to create what Armstrong called AI native teams, some as small as one person, combining engineering, design, and product management functions through AI agent workflows. Armstrong said engineers at Coinbase can now ship in days what previously took a team weeks, and that staff without technical backgrounds are now shipping production code. Coinbase reports first quarter 2026 earnings on Thursday after the close. The layoffs are the largest at the company since a 2022 cut of 18% of staff during the prior crypto winter. Bitcoin’s recovery above $82,000 Wednesday as the Iran deal framework emerged provides some relief to the crypto market backdrop, but crypto revenue remained significantly below 2025 peak levels through Q1 according to Robinhood’s and Strategy’s earnings already reported this season. Coinbase is in the base 20 company coverage list for The Bitcoiner and is the primary publicly traded US crypto exchange.

  Morgan Stanley is rolling out crypto trading on E*TRADE. Pilot access starts now for part of its 8.6M user base, with a broader rollout expected later in 2026. Fees are reportedly around 0.5% – lower than platforms like Coinbase or Robinhood. The offering is expected to focus on spot $BTC and $ETH trading, likely through infrastructure partner Zerohash. Another sign TradFi is moving deeper into crypto rails – this time aimed directly at retail brokerage users.

  . @megaeth wrapped its tge a week ago. here is what most posts aren't telling you. the launch: $MEGA went live april 30 across 13 exchanges including binance, coinbase, bybit, and kucoin. opened around $0.183 with a $1.82B fdv. biggest tge of 2026 so far. the chart: > opened: ~$0.183 > ath: $0.2103 (april 30) > current: ~$0.128 > down 38% from ath > 50% of 8,360 wallet recipients still holding, 40% sold everything, 10% partial. the part everyone is missing: while the chart bled, tvl surged past $580m post-launch. megaeth broke into the top 15 l2s by tvl in exactly seven days. real capital is flowing in while traders are exiting. token price and ecosystem usage moved in exact opposite directions for the first time in 2026. what makes megaeth different: > no airdrops. no listing fees. no pay-to-play exchange deals. > 53.3% of supply tied to kpi-based emissions, not time-based vesting schedules. > tokens unlock only when the network hits real milestones (tvl, usdm circulation, performance). > already cleared the first kpi: 10 apps each hit 100k transactions within 30 days. these apps actually shipped because they came through the megamafia accelerator, where teams co-live and build together with the core team for months before shipping. the takeaway: price action is brutal but the chart is barely a week old. tvl, ecosystem activity, and kpi emissions are all signaling something completely different than what the chart suggests. the next milestone is usdm circulation hitting $500m (currently ~$463m and weeks away). when that triggers, the next emission unlocks, and the second leg of the story starts. we build go-to-market strategies for projects that actually ship products, not just tokens. if your tech is ready but your reach is dead... dms are open.

  this is a positive development for circle and coinbase, as their stock prices are going up now originally, circle passed treasury interest to coinbase and then directly distributed it to users, but this model may need to change. however, the channels remain in place; feasible options include activity incentives, trading incentives, incentives on base, etc interest on balances also has room for adjustment, as long as it passes the "equivalence test" (proving it's not equivalent to bank interest in nature), balances can still serve as the basis for yield calculations as @faryarshirzad said, "We have protected rewards based on genuine usage." the biggest positive is the regulatory certainty it brings, laying the foundation and protection for further growth. additionally, regulators will issue specific rules within one year, providing a list of "permitted activities" from a crypto perspective, this counts as an acceptable and bullish outcome

  AI genuinely doing work at Coinbase - customer support now agent-run, code shipped faster with smaller teams. But timing suggests market conditions are primary driver. 2026 crypto layoffs: ~1,200 across industry.

  @Cointelegraph Crypto safety becomes rel when stolen funds can be flagged fast and wallet recovery stops feeling impossible. Coinbase learned that the hard part is not buying the asset. It is surviving the first mistake.

  I was laid off today by Coinbase. I worked in the HR department and helped with miscellaneous things like payroll and insurance. My day to day was generally pretty free so I felt empowered by Coinbase leadership to ship production changes in my free time. With Claude’s assistance, I ran “terraform destroy” on some production databases cause there was a typo in the database name. I thought it was a low hanging fruit bug fix. It’s not public information yet but I think I deleted a ledger or two. Anyways let me know if anyone is looking for a forward deployed HR assistant.

  @robj3d3 Almost every possible reason mate. The main problem here is that a company like @coinbase is reckless enough to put life worth of savings invested by its users to risk by adding AI. Imagine having all your data and money being handled by AI, how prone to cyber attacks is that? Then even thinking of creating coinbase or an app even close to the kind of functionaliites they possess is just... wishful atm. As great as AI may be - It is not safe and it surely is not trustable.

  Coinbase Lays Off 700 Employees Amid Volatility and AI Shifts The company is letting go of about 700 workers, or 14% of its nearly 5,000 staff, to trim costs in a down market and adopt AI efficiencies like engineers shipping code in days instead of weeks. Armstrong outlined a leaner setup with flatter teams, leaders as 'player-coaches' managing 15+ reports, and even one-person squads handling engineering, design, and product. Affected employees get generous support including 16 weeks of pay, equity vests, and health coverage. Shares climbed on the news, as Coinbase preps for Q1 earnings and eyes growth in stablecoins and tokenization.

  do you notice what's happening? > coinbase just fired 14% of their workforce to restructure the entire company around AI-native pods > stripe is paying multi-6 figures for a 'forward deployed AI accelerator' to permanently transform how their marketing team works w/ AI. > anthropic and openai are both backing billion-dollar consulting companies to do the same thing across entire enterprises. all 4 companies are telling you the same thing this week: AI deployment is the current bottleneck. everybody has access to incredibly powerful AI models now, but barely anything has changed about how companies actually work. this is the same "lag pattern" that played out with electrification 140 years ago. when electricity first became available in the 1880s, every factory ran on one giant steam engine in the middle of the building. so when electricity showed up, factory owners did the obvious thing: they just swapped the steam engine for an electric motor and changed nothing else. productivity barely moved for 30 years. then someone realized: electricity meant every machine could have its own small motor built right into it. you could rearrange the entire factory floor around how the work actually needed to flow. that single shift is what caused the productivity explosion. now look at AI. most companies gave everyone access to claude/chatgpt and changed nothing else. same workflows and processes, just with AI bolted on top. that's the electric motor in the steam engine's spot. what stripe, anthropic, coinbase, and openai are all betting on is the next phase: AI built directly into how every team works, with the workflows themselves redesigned around what AI makes possible. that's the full factory redesign and it's about to happen to every company in the world.
