According to Armstrong, the above-mentioned fields are expected to have great potential in the near future. Flatcoins are decentralized tokens that track the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to preserve purchasing power. Coinbase Chief believes that flat coins can solve the inflation and seizure problems associated with fiat and stablecoins.
Armstrong is also optimistic about on-chain advertising, gaming, reputation, and capital formation. He told builders that decentralized identity, advertising and gaming have significant potential. To support these startups, Coinbase CEO presented the idea of on-chain capital formation that would allow startups to raise cash globally. More startups will lead to demand for cryptocurrency talent, which is where Armstrong’s idea of a cryptocurrency hiring marketplace comes into play.
Brian Armstrong’s proposal for DeFi builders comes ahead of the first Coinbase Ventures Summit to be held in Malibu, California in October 2023. The event will bring together 20-30 teams of the best builders in the cryptocurrency industry. Cryptocurrency projects participating in the summit can receive funding from Coinbase Ventures.
