Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, said the global financial system still needs eight major upgrades before it reaches its next stage of growth. He highlighted real-world asset tokenization, 24/7 trading, stablecoin payments, AI-powered financial services, self-custody wallets, and clearer crypto regulations as key priorities. Armstrong said these changes could make finance faster, more global, and more automated. His comments reflect growing industry pressure for blockchain-based infrastructure as governments and institutions expand crypto adoption and digital asset experimentation.
