Nicolai Tangen sits down with Brian Armstrong, co-founder and CEO of Coinbase — the largest crypto exchange in the US — to explore how digital assets are rewriting global finance. They discuss why stablecoins could grow 100x or even 1000x, how AI agents are already transacting on blockchain, and how Coinbase pushed back against crypto's political headwinds. Brian also shares his bold bet that longevity escape velocity is within reach — and why a few hundred years of living might not be science fiction. Tune in for an insightful conversation!
