Other technologies have avoided this problem. Consider, for example, the internet. We don’t type out IP addresses, like “192.168.1.1,” to access websites — we use domain names. This evolution wasn’t about simplifying the underlying technology but making it invisible to end-users.

“The next global arms race will be in the digital economy, not space,” Armstrong speculated. “Bitcoin could be as foundational to the global economy as gold and will become central to national security in a world where holdings of Bitcoin can shift the balance of power among nation-states.”

With the leadership of the US Securities and Exchange Commission set to fall under the Trump administration starting on Jan. 20, it’s unclear what the status of legal cases filed against Coinbase — and vice versa — will be going forward.

The SEC filed an enforcement action against the exchange in June 2023, alleging it had operated as an unregistered securities exchange, broker and clearing agency. On Jan. 7, a federal judge stayed the case until a higher court ruled on an interlocutory appeal.
