Smart move to rip the bandaid off early and get ahead in terms of runway in case it's needed instead of extending the pain. Probably easier for employees to find a job as well before unemployment rises.

It just feels kind of weird to transition from hiring aggressively -> laying off 1/5th of your staff within a couple weeks. I had always associated layoffs with companies that were stagnating.

Not only has this downturn been a great release of financial capital into strong hands, but the positive of shitcoin companies laying off employees is it means there is also a release of human capital that could potentially flow into strong, more ethical bitcoin only companies. Fantastic opportunity for companies like Strike.
This is how you drain shitcoins of resources.

I suspect the severance is so significant because the layoffs were so abrupt.

so basically they are thinking the bear market will last longer than 14 weeks?
Also, is this a bottom signal? Capitulation?

Coinbase is a large US based and regulated shitcoin casino. They are worried about what comes next from regulators after the huge Luna and Celsius Ponzi's imploded.
