Coinbase CEO Pushes for Interest-Bearing Stablecoins
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong says U.S. stablecoin laws need an upgrade. He believes users should be able to earn interest directly from stablecoins, just like an interest-bearing checking account. The tech already exists to make it happen, but current laws haven’t caught up. Right now, stablecoins can’t legally pass on interest from their reserve assets to users because they don’t have the same exemptions as traditional securities. Armstrong urges lawmakers to fix this gap and unlock stablecoin potential.

Why Bitcoin Price Is Down Despite Saylor’s $2B Buy?
Bitcoin’s price is down even after Michael Saylor announced a $2 billion purchase—and here’s why. The market had already priced in this move, as MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin buying strategy was well-known in advance. While Saylor is accumulating, other major players are cashing out after Bitcoin’s impressive 100% gain in 2024. Plus, $2 billion isn’t enough to move the needle in a $1.7–$2 trillion market. The bigger picture lies in global liquidity trends, which had been tightening. That trend is now shifting, and once liquidity fully returns, Bitcoin is likely to break to a new level—but it might test your patience before that happens.
