【Blockchain Rhythm】Recently, there have been two completely different accounts regarding the negotiations between Coinbase and the White House.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong clarified the previous reports on January 18th, emphasizing that the White House has been proactive and positive throughout the process, contrary to some reports claiming they were “angry.” Armstrong revealed that the White House indeed proposed a yield agreement with banks, and both sides are currently working towards this goal. More details will be disclosed later.

However, Eleanor Terrett, a crypto journalist involved in reporting this matter, subsequently raised an objection. She believes her report is based on solid facts, and the core content is that the White House requested Coinbase to seek bank cooperation on yield issues. From current signs, the White House’s support for the exchange seems to be linked to the final outcome of the agreement.

From this dialogue, it is evident that there are clear differences in understanding regarding information disclosure and policy intentions, and subsequent developments are worth watching.
