That's fair.

I guess I'm just frustrated at these "tech writers" for re-posting unverified information from Blind and then needing to walk it back later. It's unprofessional and risky.

Too bad Mr. Armstrong didn't choose to keep his mouth shut for a bit longer, to verify if the claims were from actual employees. Alternatively, he could have made a single tweet:

"I am aware of the open letter published today that was claimed to be from Coinbase empoyees. We will do our best to verify this and also respond to those employees internally to try and solve any issues they have with the direction of our company. I appreciate all feedback from Coinbase employees, positive or negative."

Then deal with this internally.

Spot on. Shocking that the bar for CEO of a public company is so hilariously low.

Yes, that seems like a better approach. This is where a marketing or a PR person is helpful.

I’m an autistic engineer and even I know how to phrase things better, so it’s not the lack of marketing, it’s a lack of maturity and leadership.

A+. Nothing more needed to be said.
