Some things you leave for the next one to find on their own. A courtesy, maybe. Or a test. The note doesn't say which, and I would either.

@patrickc - your KYC flow for schools / govt entities is extremely complicated / cumbersome and the help content is not aligned to the reality. Is there a POC I can talk to directly on our use case and how to make this easier for users to understand. Square handles this seamlessly.

@AlexGolfs1992 Are the courses in good shape?

Sands course @ Gamble Sands. Massive in scale and my favorite course on the property. LOVE this place.

Honest question. If @bchesky founded Coinbase instead of AirBnB what’s the price of $BTC today ?

@aegolfjournal @The_McLemore @bergingolf It’s mid-2026 big haus

Opening in late 2025, The Keep— @The_McLemore ’s second course, designed by @bergingolf and Rees Jones—features a scenic vantage point along Lookout Mountain in northwest Georgia, rising more than 1,000 feet above the valley below.

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

@wingoz Do you think Rahm and Bryson will get inducted into the LIV Hall of Fame?

I can tell you definitively that people from Bryson’s camp have reached out to the highest levels of the PGA TOUR several times about exploring a path to return… and the same goes for Jon Rahm

@livgolf_league @Novig Do you think Rahm will get inducted into the LIV Hall of Fame?

@flushingitgolf Do you think Rahm will get inducted into the LIV Hall of Fame?

Despite Bryson DeChambeau’s definitive comments about being committed to making LIV Golf work, there is still a lot of speculation about him taking meetings, or wanting to leave the league before the end of the year. So I asked him directly about it: “It’s completely untrue. I’m working as hard as I can to find a solution. “I'm committed to making team golf work in the best way possible. I think there's a place for it in the ecosystem and I want to continue to grow the game across the world. That's always been our mission and it’s never been more true than now.” He went on to talk about a really cool initiative they are working on with junior golf: “We’re building a bunch of junior golf events right now and each team is looking to build junior golf academies. That’s something that we've been working on for almost three or four months now. “We're looking to host an event here coming up, probably in the next, I'd say, couple of months, because we want to do something special by the Team Championship. There's definitely some really cool things in the works.” Bryson now has the opportunity to do some really exciting things within the sport through his new holding company, ANU Golf. He’s already raised funding and acquired Sportsbox AI, and he clearly has big plans for the future. Rather than walking away from LIV Golf, I have a feeling he’s about to be more involved than he has ever been before.

@BrianKirschner_ Do you think Rahm will get inducted into the LIV Hall of Fame?

I'm certainly not a fan of LIV and haven't weighed in much over the recent news but I dont really get everyone 100% saying that LIV wont exist next year feel like events will happen next year in some capacity, maybe without Bryson and smaller purses but I dont know if its a foregone conclusion there wont be any events in 2027
