Coinbase CEO says ‘no’ to Saylor strategy: Why Brian Armstrong passed on the Bitcoin balance sheet bet

Brian Armstrong just swerved Wall Street’s latest crypto craze—loading corporate balance sheets with Bitcoin. While MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor doubles down on his billion-dollar BTC bet, the Coinbase chief cites ’different risk appetite’ in passing on the trend.

Key divergence: Coinbase’s exchange model thrives on volatility, while Saylor’s software firm treats Bitcoin like a digital Fort Knox. Armstrong’s move signals a calculated play—why hoard the asset when you can profit from everyone else trading it?

Cynical take: Another finance bro learns that ’number go up’ theology works better when you’re not the one holding the bags.
