Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong disclosed that 40% of the cryptocurrency exchange’s code is currently generated by AI tools, with expectations to exceed 50% by October 2025. While emphasizing that human review remains critical and AI isn’t used uniformly across all business areas, Armstrong revealed that engineers who resisted adopting AI tools were dismissed. The announcement drew mixed reactions, with security experts like Dango’s Larry Lyu calling it ‘a giant red flag’ and Cinneamhain Ventures’ Adam Cochran expressing concern about AI handling financial infrastructure. Defenders including Tensor’s Richard Wu argued that AI coding processes are maturing rapidly and that proper safeguards can mitigate risks, comparing AI errors to those made by junior developers.

Coinbase’s decision to delist four altcoins—Helium Mobile (MOBILE), Render (RNDR), Ribbon Finance (RBN), and Synapse (SYN)—on June 26 has led to sharp price declines, with SYN falling nearly 15%. The exchange cited updated token versions no longer meeting its requirements as the reason. Reduced liquidity and investor fear contributed to the drops. In contrast, Coinbase’s past listings, like TOSHI and Tensor (TNSR), have sparked triple-digit rallies. Render, the largest by market cap among the affected, surprised some users with its delisting, having been added just last year. The event highlights the market’s sensitivity to exchange support changes.
