Lightning In A High Fee Environment: Implications for Bitcoin’s Scalability

In response to Satoshi’s original message, James McDonald said, “We very, very much need such a system, but the way I understand your proposal, it does not seem to scale to the required size” — a remark that probably wasn’t the welcome Satoshi had anticipated.

Coinbase Plans to Target Australia's Self-Managed Pensions Sector with New Service

Coinbase is developing a service that will target Australia's self-managed pensions sector, according to the exchange's Asia-Pacific Managing Director John O'Loghlen. The move comes as self-managed funds in Australia have increasingly held crypto, with nearly A$1 billion ($664 million) allocated to crypto as of the latest data from the Australian Taxation Office. O'Loghlen stated that Coinbase's offering will aim to service these clients on a one-off basis and retain their business. The interest in crypto within the self-managed pensions sector may be driven by the recent momentum gained after spot-ETF approvals in the U.S. and the possibility of similar approvals in Australia this year.
