managed to get brian to spill the honest reaction to his pfp drama "it was a good wakeup call. this community was following what i was saying on X, looking for signals that it's time for this thing to run up" "i kind of fucked it up, to be honest. i completely misread what one [Spoken audio]: Yeah, I know that the timeline has been like very aggressive towards you the past week or so for some stuff that probably like somewhat out of your control. And I know how it is being on CT. I kind of get the same thing where it's like stuff that you do. You may not know how it's impacting other people and the trenches and so on and so forth. But I guess the question is like, how do you think about like balancing. You have a ton of responsibilities as CEO Coinbase. How do you think about those responsibilities versus like The people who may not know everything else that you're doing and like their relationship with you is like a personality on online Yeah, well, you know, it was a good it was a good wake-up call for me because I think I realized That I hadn't been clear enough with people just about this particular Community that was following what I was saying on on X and really looking for signals about okay this he's signaling to us that like this things it's time for it to run up or or different trades that they wanted to make. We built base with this idea of like, how do we innovate on financial services, build a path towards decentralization that lots of people can build on top of it. And I'm very pro-economic freedom. That's the mission of Coinbase. So I want everyone to be able to build on it. That means there's gonna be lots of different constituencies. Like in any given day, I might talk with folks like you who are more and like that trader, the trenches as you call it, I might also be talking to like some giant bank, some government that's trying to build on top of this, like the latest FinTech, if there's a bunch of AI agents now transacting on base. So we do have certainly a large number of constituents and it's my job to kind of go understand each of those and empathize with them. And in this case, I kind of fucked it up to be honest, in the sense that I completely misread what one community was reading into my stuff. So yeah, I tried to make it clear going forward And whenever I miss something like that, just all you can do is I think try to set expectations clearly going forward and there are going to be lots of ways we can support people building on base with investments and in some cases integrating into our products. But unfortunately, I don't think I'm going to be in a position where I can guarantee somebody listing on Coinbase or like pump a certain coin or anything like that. It's just it's not something I would personally do. So yeah, I'm 43 now too. So I don't know. Maybe I'm a boomer and I have to put a lot of my time. I'm just like putting on a suit and tie going to DC, trying to get the clarity act passed. Yeah. That's what we talked about in the movie game on. It's so silly. Yeah. I mean, hopefully this will benefit everyone in crypto, including meme coin traders and everyone, but we'll see. I think that's where I can add the most value. And if I've got a great team under me too of different people with different skill sets that complement areas where I'm not as strong.
