@MonetSupply @moo9000 It goes without saying that all AI generated code has rigorous human reviews. No one is vibe coding directly to production. We're increasing speed of shipping and innovation, while continuing to raise the bar on security.

This is an email I sent earlier today to all employees at Coinbase:
Team,
Today I’ve made the difficult decision to reduce the size of Coinbase by ~14%. I want to walk you through why we're doing this now, what it means for those affected, and how this positions us for the future.
Why now
Two forces are converging at the same time. We need to be front footed to respond to both.
First, the market. Coinbase is well-capitalized, has diversified revenue streams, and is well-positioned to weather any storm. Crypto is also on the verge of the next wave of adoption, with stablecoins, prediction markets, tokenization, and more taking off. However, our business is still volatile from quarter to quarter. While we've managed through that cyclicality many times before and come out stronger on the other side, we’re currently in a down market and need to adjust our cost structure now so that we emerge from this period leaner, faster, and more efficient for our next phase of growth.
Second, AI is changing how we work. Over the past year, I’ve watched engineers use AI to ship in days what used to take a team weeks. Non-technical teams are now shipping production code and many of our workflows are being automated. The pace of what's possible with a small, focused team has changed dramatically, and it's accelerating every day.
All of this has led us to an inflection point, not just for Coinbase, but for every company. The biggest risk now is not taking action. We are adjusting early and deliberately to rebuild Coinbase to be lean, fast, and AI-native. We need to return to the speed and focus of our startup founding, with AI at our core.
What this means
To get there, 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. What does this mean in practice?
- Fewer layers, faster decisions: We are flattening our org structure to 5 layers max below CEO/COO. Layers slow things down and create coordination tax. The future is small, high context teams that can move quickly. Leaders will own much more, with as many as 15+ direct reports. Fewer layers also means a leaner cost structure that is built to perform through all market cycles.
- No pure managers: Every leader at Coinbase must also be a strong and active individual contributor. Managers should be like player-coaches, getting their hands dirty alongside their teams.
- AI-native pods: We’ll be concentrating around AI-native talent who can manage fleets of agents to drive outsized impact. We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including “one person teams” with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role.
In short: AI is bringing a profound shift in how companies operate, and we’re reshaping Coinbase to lead in this new era. This is a new way of working, and we need to leverage AI across every facet of our jobs.
To those who are affected
I know there are real people behind these decisions — talented colleagues who have poured themselves into this company and our mission. To those of you who will be leaving: thank you. You’ve helped build Coinbase into what it is today, and I am sincerely grateful for everything you've done.
All impacted team members will receive an email to their personal account in the next hour with more information, and an invitation to meet with an HRBP and a senior leader in your organization. Coinbase system access has been removed today. I know this feels sudden and harsh, but it is the only responsible choice given our duty to protect customer information.
To those affected, we will be providing a comprehensive package to support you through this transition. US employees will receive a minimum of 16 weeks base pay (plus 2 weeks per year worked), their next equity vest, and 6 months of COBRA. Employees on a work visa will get extra transition support. Those outside of the US will receive similar support, based on local factors and subject to any consultation requirements.
Coinbase prides itself on talent density. Our employees are among the most talented people in the world, and I have no doubt that your skills and experience will be highly sought after as you pursue your next chapters.
How we move forward
To the team that is staying, I know this is a difficult day. We’re saying goodbye to colleagues and friends you've been in the trenches with. But here’s what I want you to know as we move forward together:
Over the past 13 years, we have weathered four crypto winters, gone public, and built the most trusted platform in our industry. We’ve made it this far by making hard decisions and by always staying focused on our mission. This time will be no different – nothing has changed about the long term outlook of our company or industry. And most importantly, our mission has never been more important for the world. Increasing economic freedom requires a new financial system, and we’re building it.
The Coinbase that emerges from this will be more capable than ever to achieve our mission.
Brian

@EstieMaddie Why’s it’s always some Facebook wine mom who has secret forbidden knowledge that the elites spent trillions trying to suppress?

@NFL_DovKleiman This retard uses ‘and’ in lieu of a period like a 3 year old babbling on about some random bullshit.

An absolute legend at Georgia.

This is awesome: Bills RB James Cook has graduated from the University of Georgia. Cook will walk at the ceremony on May 8th. A role model on and off the field 👏

@JDGEFC @Mdw37683404 @ViralNewsNYC @ZohranKMamdani @FBIDDBongino Yea, when this happens right outside of a NYPD unit, you would expect cops.
New Highs@Lifeisadrip
@ViralNewsNYC This was in Jamaica, Queens New York. The building where the attack took plans was in front of Family Court/NYPD investigation unit

@Mdw37683404 @ViralNewsNYC @ZohranKMamdani @FBIDDBongino I agree, the police are always everywhere. That’s how humans work, they shapeshift to the nearest crime

@AutismCapital @Pirat_Nation That whole “you will own nothing” meme is becoming more and more of a reality

@Pirat_Nation This is genuinely terrifying. Do you guys not see what's happening?
Your rights are being stripped from you. You are a permanent RENTER. Not an OWNER. You are being dehumaned.
YOU MUST HOARD YOUR PHYSICAL MEDIA. DO NOT SELL IT TO GAMESTOP. DO NOT GO GENTLE INTO THAT GOOD NIGHT.

PlayStation support has confirmed that a new digital rights management policy for the console is intentional, not a glitch.
Starting with any digital games purchased after the March 2026 system update, your PS5 will require an internet connection at least once every 30 days to validate the license.
If the console stays offline longer than that, the games simply will not launch until you reconnect.
This change does not affect any titles already in your library. Setting a console as your primary system also will not bypass the monthly check-in.

@WallStreetApes Takes 10 years to get a state to approve a new overpass bc it may disrupt some obscure migratory bird, but by all means let massacre millions of fish. Surely that isn’t a problem.

Denver Water is draining Antero Reservoir, 2,300+ acre trophy trout fishery in Colorado
Due to the drought, they plan on draining the reservoir. It is stocked with millions of fish that will die
There encouraging people to go fish before they’re all killed, starting May 1 is when the draining begins
CPW has stocked 5.4 million fish into Antero since 2020 alone. Primarily rainbow trout, brown trout, cutthroat variants, cutbows, brook trout, and others. This doesn’t include natural reproduction or fish already present before 2020
All these fish will die

@Kick_Champ Imagine throwing away family to continue a life of degeneracy? He will come to regret this decision in a couple years, when his fame is long and gone.

Clavicular BLOCKED his dad after his phone service was shut off over a deal he didn’t approve 😳
“Block him, are you kidding me? He turned off my phone service? I hate that guy, he’s never done anything. I’ve done more deals than he has in his entire life.”
“I sent it over to my lawyers. Does he think I’m paying my lawyers hundreds of thousands for no reason?”
