  @coinbase have launched crypto backed loans in the UK. Headline: borrow USDC against your BTC or ETH without selling. UK holders need to read the small print before celebrating. As structured, this looks like a taxable disposal under current HMRC rules. 🧵 Mechanic: your BTC is withdrawn from Coinbase, converted into cbBTC (Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin), and transferred onchain into a Morpho smart contract as collateral. You no longer hold BTC. The position is backed by a different asset entirely. HMRC's view on token wrapping and DeFi lending is set out in the Cryptoasset Manual. Where beneficial ownership of the original token passes (i.e. you cannot exercise the rights of an owner over the same coins you put in), there is a disposal for CGT. Two issues combine here: BTC into cbBTC: a swap into a different cryptoasset. Almost certainly a disposal. cbBTC into a Morpho smart contract: typical DeFi collateral. HMRC have repeatedly said this transfers beneficial ownership. Potentially two CGT events at the start. The pitch ("borrow without selling, no taxable event") works under US tax rules. It does not automatically translate to the UK. If you are sitting on large unrealised gains, taking one of these loans could crystallise the very tax bill you were trying to avoid. Get advice before you click Borrow. Calculate the disposal proceeds of the BTC at the moment of conversion versus your s.104 pool cost. The interest rate looks attractive. The tax cost might dwarf it. As the rues stand 'most' of these products are not UK tax friendly....... Yet

  @Thesecretinves2 @80IQConviction @coinbase Great write up! If a BTC-backed loan wraps your BTC, the problem starts there. The small print behind the headline really matters. We’ve built around that exact problem with self-custody BTC-backed loans using only native Bitcoin, with no wrapping or bridging. Would be interested in your view.

  @smeshny @buildonbase Base is currently **Stage 1** (not fully decentralized). It uses a single centralized sequencer run by the Base team/Coinbase multisig, which can censor or delay txs (though users can force-include via L1). Yes, the Base Governance Multisig (and Incident Responder) can **pause withdrawals** via the SuperchainConfig. This can temporarily freeze access to bridged ETH and other assets on Base (pauses auto-expire after 3 months max). Malicious upgrades are also possible via their 2/2 multisig with no delay. Azul upgrade (May 13) adds multiproofs toward Stage 2, but doesn't remove these controls yet. Full decentralization is still a work in progress. (L2Beat data as of Apr 21, 2026)

  @brian_armstrong Brian Armstrong is promoting Finding Satoshi, a documentary about Bitcoin's anonymous creator. Coinbase users get early access. Everyone else waits. Smart marketing wrapped in genuine curiosity. Here's what's worth thinking about. Satoshi Nakamoto mined approximately 1 million Bitcoin in 2009-2010. Hasn't touched them since 2011. At current prices, roughly $79 billion sitting untouched across several thousand addresses. Identifying Satoshi would be the biggest financial story ever told. It would also be the worst thing for Bitcoin. Think about what identification would mean. If Satoshi is one person, they become the most targeted human alive. If a group, factional disputes over the coins could split the community. If dead, coins become permanent unclaimed property with unclear legal status. Bitcoin's greatest strength is that nobody can turn it off. Satoshi anonymity is infrastructure. No government can seize his coins, sue him, or compel protocol changes. Break that, and Bitcoin has a weakness it didn't have yesterday. Armstrong promoting this is more ambiguous than it looks. Coinbase profits from Bitcoin interest. Mysteries drive interest. The documentary likely speculates without proving, keeping the mystery alive while monetizing it. Candidates proposed over 15 years: Hal Finney (dead), Nick Szabo (denied), Adam Back (denied), Craig Wright (court-proven fraud). None survived scrutiny with evidence. For Bitcoin holders, rooting for Satoshi to stay anonymous is rational self-interest. The mystery is the feature. Some questions are worth more unanswered.

  my process for getting USDC on Base off Metamask and onto Coinbase to send to @blend_capital: > try to send on Coinbase via Base, told I don't have enough eth even though there's $1 of eth in my acct and the transaction is sub penny > spend $10 buying more eth just in case > still don't have enough eth > swap some eth to Base token to see if I can get it to send > failed transaction, still not enough eth > wonder if I have to buy eth on Base but that doesn't exist > mean to swap to USDC on eth to see if I can send it to Coinbase but accidentally swap into straight eth on base > try to send eth on Base to Coinbase twice, failed transaction twice > swap eth on Base to eth on eth > send eth to CB on eth finally things get easier > sold eth for USD (I was considering putting straight into my bank acct but ultimately decided not to and to put it onto defi) > converted to USDC > sent to G address on Stellar > put into Blend the @MetaMask / @base experience was for real terrible. there's a reason why centralized exchanges wind up winning. I don't even know whose fault it was but I feel like I needed several degrees to get through that. we're still in the "we need products that work" phase of crypto

  I have let Satoshi know that I need 800 BTC to help support my USAD. I am really Nakamoto, which is USAD. I manage it. Satoshi is another group. They have USAP I don’t. Just FYI. They have my Coinbase wallet addy. #GCHQ

  it’s crazy to think Cobie sold Echo and took customer support job at Coinbase just so he could focus better on trading

  Crypto Twitter doesn't want you to shill low float tokens but the money is on them . Some small caps are listed on big CEX like Coinbase and you should read their utility , the circulating supplies , their investors then if we can fix crypto valuation , there's a chance you can hit the lottery . They are part of the low float tokens that can magically squeeze higher because of small supplies. Some people will call it manipulation , it is the high trading algorithm jump but in essence , liquidity wins so you need that retail volume too The old tokens big caps are just basically following BTC algorithm now that's why they barely move unless they have big whales as many degens moved to new altcoin utility with AI inclusion except for Bitcoin and Ethereum

  Prediction markets are starting to look like the next growth area for Coinbase and Robinhood. Even with weaker trading activity lately, investors don’t seem too focused on the last quarter anymore. Attention is shifting more to what’s coming next, especially new products. Both platforms are pushing into prediction markets, along with things like tokenized assets and private market access. The idea is pretty clear. Rely less on pure trading volume, build new revenue streams instead. There’s still some uncertainty around regulation, especially on whether these markets are treated as trading or gambling. But interest is clearly picking up. Informational only, not financial advice.
