Hey Brian, been a while since my days at CB so not sure if you remember me. I’m curious to hear what your feelings are towards privacy preserving coins that still work with KYC/Compliance? Any chance of ever listing those?

The cyclic nature of crypto makes it *incredibly* challenging as a founder given just how much volatility there is in usage/growth. @barmstrong how do you know when to maintain conviction on your original thesis/idea vs. making the choice to pivot due to a lack of signal/growth?

switching things up with a longevity and healthspan question :). what were the defining moments or experiences that compelled you to co-found NewLimit? and what about NewLimit's early beginnings* remind you, if at all, of early Coinbase? *knowing you're a board member and not actively involved in the day-to-day

Hey Brian! How optimistic/pessimistic are you on the US getting regulations right on us being able to unlock all of the use cases on crypto? If you were a starting a company today, how would navigate your business/product through this?

What did you tell yourself to keep going as you hit obstacle after obstacle in the early part of getting Coinbase of the ground (YC app, cofounder issues, etc)?
