Coinbase’s CEO, Brian Armstrong, has high hopes for the company being more than just a crypto exchange and evolving into a fully-fledged ‘financial super app.’

Best Wallet also aims for the same goal, but through a secure non-custodial wallet built as an all-in-one hub for digital assets.

Coinbase Strives to ‘Replace the Legacy Banks,’ Says CEO

In a recent interview with Fox Business, Armstrong spoke about how Coinbase aims to ‘be a super app and provide financial services’ to become ‘people’s primary account.’

The CEO stressed that the company’s ultimate goal is to replace many of the functions of legacy banks, but in a faster, cheaper, and more modern way – ‘whether it’s trading, rewards, or staking.’

Additionally, he mentioned how outdated financial infrastructure creates friction for payments.

‘Today, merchants are paying these fees to swipe a credit card, with lots of data floating over the internet. That should be opposed to it – it’s one example of many things that can update the financial system, and we are pushing on that frontier.’

— Brian Armstrong, CEO, Coinbase.

He foresees Coinbase directly challenging banks while modernizing money for a crypto-native era. But Coinbase isn’t the only player chasing the super crypto app vision; Best Wallet pursues the same goal, but through a different lens.

Best Wallet’s All-in-One Crypto Hub Raises $16M+

Best Wallet is a secure, non-custodial crypto wallet available on Google Play and iOS.

Unlike Coinbase (which is custodial), however, Best Wallet gives you full control over your private keys. Doing so keeps assets safe from hacks and centralized risks.

Also on the security front, it leverages 2FA, local encryption, biometrics, and cloud backups – each of which minimizes the risk of losing access to your crypto.

Best Wallet security features.

And there’s much more to the wallet than its safeguarding measures. Best Wallet enables you to buy, sell, swap, and manage over 1K digital assets.

Whether you’re interested in stablecoins like $USDT or $USDC, top cryptos like $BTC and $ETH, or meme coins like $DOGE and $PEPE, Best Wallet has tons of assets to cater to all traders’ tastes.

When swapping assets, Best Wallet ensures you get the most competitive rates by scanning 330+ DEXs and 30 bridges.

What’s more, it has a built-in launchpad so that you can access the next crypto to explode hassle-free.

Pushing the app closer to becoming a super app is its many upcoming features: Best Card (an upcoming crypto card), an NFT gallery, analytics tools, and a rewards hub.

The roadmap for the Best Wallet app.

But for the app’s full suite of benefits, you’ll want to scoop up some $BEST. You’ll then be able to enjoy even more perks, like lower gas fees, governance rewards, and staking rewards (currently at an 83% APY).

Whales are notably already noticing the token’s benefits, three of whom have invested $70.2K, $50.9K, and $49.5K into the project. Together, they’ve helped the project raise over $16M on presale.

You, too, can contribute to the presale. This would help bring the app to greater heights; 25% of $BEST’s total token supply is set aside for product development.

Right now you can buy $BEST on presale for as little as $0.025675. If it continues to launch the new developments promised on its roadmap, $BEST has the potential to hit $0.62 in 2026. This means that buying in now might generate an ROI exceeding 2,300% next year.

As always, be sure to do your own research before making any investment. This article is not financial advice.

天主教与执法团体警告CLARITY法案可能削弱打击加密货币犯罪的安全措施

一个由天主教领袖、执法相关团体及反贩卖倡导者组成的联盟警告称,《清晰法案》可能会削弱打击加密货币犯罪的安全措施。批评焦点在于法案中保护非托管软件开发者免受货币传输服务商待遇的条款。 这一争议触及了加密货币监管中最棘手的问题之一:如何区分中性软件与金融中介。加密倡导者认为,发布非托管代码的开发者不应像交易所或支付处理商那样受到监管。批评者则担心,广泛的豁免可能使追踪非法金融活动变得更加困难。 非托管软件是去中心化金融(DeFi)的核心。钱包、智能合约和去中心化协议通常允许用户在没有公司控制资金的情况下进行交易。这种架构是加密货币价值主张的核心部分,但当不法分子使用相同工具时,也带来了执法挑战。 《清晰法案》旨在制定更清晰的市场结构规则,但反对意见表明并非所有政策争论都围绕投资者保护或交易所注册。一些立法者在决定开发者保护应扩展到何种程度时,还会考虑人口贩卖、制裁逃避、欺诈以及执法可见性等因素。 尽管面临阻力,该法案并未夭折,但支持者可能需要回应法案可能为非法金融活动创造漏洞的担忧。这可能导致修正案、更狭窄的安全港规则或额外的报告要求。对加密公司而言,风险很高:更明确的规则可能在美国释放投资和产品开发潜力,但如果法案被定性为削弱犯罪防护,其政治道路将变得更为艰难。

加密独角兽 Blockstream 深陷严重欺诈始末

今年以来,比特币先驱Adam Back及其创立的Blockstream频繁引发争议。本月初,调查账号NatInfoSec发布长文,指控Blockstream发行的比特币矿业票据(BMN)可能存在严重问题。 指控核心包括:1. **算力与兑付能力存疑**:根据BMN的兑付义务,Blockstream需运营远超其公开显示的算力(约15 EH/s),但未在公开渠道找到相匹配的矿场、电力或算力证据。票据条款允许其以任意来源的BTC进行兑付,透明度不足。2. **高收益与高风险**:相关票据提供高达20%的固定年化收益,在波动剧烈的挖矿行业中难以持续,资金来源成疑。3. **关键人物前科与披露问题**:Blockstream矿业业务的重要关联方、Exacore CEO Christopher Cook曾被判邮件欺诈罪,但此前未在发行文件中披露,其背景陈述也存在夸大。4. **牵连BSTR上市计划**:质疑者担心BMN的潜在风险可能波及Adam Back关联的、正筹备SPAC上市的Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company(BSTR),尽管其法律独立性尚不明确。 BitMEX Research随后发表评论,承认Cook的前科属实且高收益令人担忧,但认为其他部分指控证据不足或存在误导,例如BMN与BSTR在法律上可能独立。社区争论焦点集中于Blockstream矿场算力的**可验证性**——投资者能否独立核查支撑收益的真实挖矿活动。 目前,围绕BMN仍存在几个关键疑问:实际发行规模与责任边界、矿场算力是否足以支撑兑付、近20%固定收益的具体来源、兑付资金的链上可验证性,以及Cook的实际角色。Blockstream尚未对此作出系统性回应。尽管指控有待最终证实,但BMN产品在透明度、风险披露和收益合理性方面,确实存在需要厘清的空间。
