Tesla’s Elon Musk Wants Coinbase to Become DOGE-Friendly
Tesla CEO and unabashed dogecoin fan Elon Musk wants the Coinbase exchange to end its “No DOGE Allowed” policy and list the meme-based cryptocurrency.
Musk tweeted an exclamatory “Yes” on Saturday after a Twitter user asked the billionaire investor whether Coinbase should enable the Shiba Inu-represented cryptocurrency on its platform.
A listing on Coinbase would expose dogecoin to a whole new breed of investor and thus unleash its potential. That’s because the U.S.-regulated exchange is considered synonymous with institutional investors and high net worth individuals. Tesla bought bitcoin worth $1.5 billion in February via Coinbase.

$1B Fei Stablecoin’s Rocky Start Is a Wake-Up Call for DeFi Investors
The $1 billion Fei Protocol stablecoin project has gotten off to a very rocky start. The most important data point is this: Fei was built to maintain a 1:1 peg with the U.S. dollar but it has not quite hit the mark over this first week of its existence. Backed by major VCs, Fei aimed to create a stablecoin protocol that would outright buy assets with its token, rather than holding them as collateral for loans. It appears the team underestimated the demand it would see to participate in the launch. It…

Let marinate until fully absorbed, about 30 minutes. Next fold in several (now-deleted) tweets that incorrectly implied that the Coinbase CEO had sold…
