Cryptocurrency's original selling points were: 0)Freedom from central bank hegemony 1)Decentralized infrastructure beyond the reach of regulators Coinbase is something of a collaborationist in this regard. They created a centralized platform and got in bed with US regulators. They've asked repeatedly for, "reasonable regulation". Reasonable people can disagree about these issues.
