I think it's fair to say that exchanges and websites promising 8% or 15% year-on-year returns are done. They're not coming back any time soon. They'll now be called out by everybody. And probably legislated out of existence too.
But the end of Coinbase? Coinbase seems legit. Sadly for them the very bank they're using, Silvergate (ticker SI), may be a goner. So USDCs emitted by Coinbase may or may not be worthless (and moreover seizable by the state to bail out Coinbase investors before Coinbase customers).
I'd like to see how exposed to Silvergate Coinbase is.
I hope Bitfinex dies a painful death. I hope Binance crashes and burn.
I hope every single exchange accepting USDTs falls.
But I do hope Coinbase, a HN unicorn, survives.
