Coinbase to add 1,000 more US jobs in 2025, thanks to Trump — Brian Armstrong

After the White House Crypto Summit, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong announced the crypto exchange would be going on a hiring spree in the United States.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said that United States President Donald Trump’s strong support for crypto has led the exchange to go on a hiring spree in the US.

“Coinbase is planning to hire about 1,000 people in the United States this year as a direct result of his actions already in the first 60 days or so,” Armstrong said in a video posted to X on March 7.

“These policies really matter; this is the most pro-crypto Congress we’ve ever seen as well,” he said. Adding 1,000 more employees would increase Coinbase's total workforce by about 27%, according to Stockanalysis’ most recent data, which shows that the crypto exchange currently has 3,772 employees.
