The founder of Coinbase has hinted that the cryptocurrency exchange may relocate from the United States to the United Kingdom in order to take advantage of the country’s more accommodating regulatory atmosphere.

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, tweeted that he had a “great meeting” with Andrew Griffiths, UK Economic Secretary to the Treasury.

Coinbase May Leave The US Due To Regulatory Restrictions

Armstrong has warned that Coinbase, which has 110 million users, may leave the US if the country does not establish a regulated framework for cryptocurrencies.

Great meeting today with UK Economic Secretary and City Minister @griffitha.

The UK is moving fast on sensible crypto regulation to both drive economic growth AND consumer protection. Excited to keep investing in the UK. 🇬🇧 pic.twitter.com/478PQSLmDe

— Brian Armstrong (@brian_armstrong) April 17, 2023

The Coinbase big boss told Griffiths about two topics they addressed. Concerning the latter, Armstrong said that the Finance Promotion guidelines are bad for “real world use cases, formation of capital markets, and consumers.”

Armstrong noted that the discussion at the conference centered on the need for reasonable regulation of the cryptocurrency business to safeguard investors and promote economic growth. The crypto exchange top honcho cited Europe’s head start, noting that the region’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation will go into effect later this year.

In a blog post, Coinbase stated:

“In short, things are happening in Europe that are edging the region ahead and, when it comes to embracing the digital economy, the region is preparing for a seismic change in how it uses and thinks about money.”

UK’s Attractive Regulatory System

Griffith, on the other hand, is said to have resurrected the Asset Management Task Force. According to reports, the organization will investigate, among other things, how to implement blockchain technology throughout the fund management industry.

At today’s Innovate Finance Global Summit, Armstrong discussed how the UK’s regulatory system may make it more attractive than the company’s native country of the US with former chancellor George Osborne.

Armstrong has complained about the lack of direction from US regulators, who he claims are taking a different approach to regulation than he would prefer.

Armstrong praised the United Kingdom’s approach to regulation and its positive outlook on emerging technologies and cryptocurrencies.

“Overall, I would give the UK really high marks […] we’ve seen really incredible leadership from people like Rishi Sunak continuing to message that science and technology is important in this country.”

Armstrong noted that the US has a “turf battle” between two distinct authorities who have made public contradicting comments, whereas the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) controls both commodities and securities.

The CEO explained that cryptocurrency is a key component of this, and that he hopes the UK will become “a financial hub.”

Armstrong is in London from the 17th through the 21st to talk at UK FinTech Week, held at the Guildhall in the City of London.

They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn.

Read more

Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later).

Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley!

So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill).

Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair.

Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better.

Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies.

Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects.

So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
