1. Gary and Vitalik don't have to sneak around anymore. No more secrets kept from family and friends. No more lunches in dark corners of out of the way restaurants. No more overnight "business trips" to some sleazy no-tell motel. They can openly celebrate their love for each other for all to see.
  2. I don't have to look at Charles Hoskinson's arrogant mug all over my youtube feed anymore. He and his army can all go home and start hodling some bitcoin
  3. I don't have to hear another person come up to me at a party and say "so, you're into crypto, right?" while I explain how bitcoin is different from crypto and then they get glassy eyed and spear another mini hotdog.
  4. Brian Armstrong can trim some hair from his cellmate Sammy Fried for a nice wig.
  5. We don't have to endure any more whiny "wen moon?" questions, cause we're all gonna be rich soon!
This leads me to wonder which crypto CEO is the worst in terms of arrogance, competence, shadyness etc.

There's a lot of competition.

These scams are getting less and less funny with time, none of these clowns has the charisma of the good'ole Carlos Mattos and his unforgettable battle cry. At least in the past you could say after losing all your life savings "this meme was worthy"

i guess a little schadenfreude never hurt anyone. and in the long run calling shitcoins what they are (unregistered securities), and cracking down on operators of said scams is a good thing in my book

5 is not true. No matter Bitcoin's price, people, especially new people, will always ask, "when moon"

If we take down Coinbase, itโ€™s almost the end for crypto in America, and that includes Bitcoin. We need on-ramps, and Coinbase is BY FAR the best and safest for any normie. And we desperately need normies for the next bull. And I will always root against Gensler and the SEC. Binance might be criminal to some degree like FTX, but absolutely Coinbase is safe until American idiots try to destroy our on-ramps.

I agree that it's not fair to say Coinbase is as bad as Binance. Still, it engaged and supported pump and dump schemes and wash trading , so I don't have much sympathy.
Bitcoin's price will be hurt if fiat on ramps are removed, no question. In the long run, bitcoin will be better off. I'm lazy, and don't relish having to deal with p2p buys either, but we have to take our medicine.
