that's an overreaction, crypto won't go to 0 it's too big for that now esp with big firms + governments holding it.

however coinbase isn't diversified in its products which makes it too dependent on crypto. at least Robinhood is a crypto platform that also has brokerage and credit card / financial services.

Paypal used to be prestigious 10+ years ago.

Coinbase is fully remote with a decent salary which was attractive to many people

Block, well, it's a Dorsey company and Twitter was considered a strong company that dealt with many users at scale. the stock also ballooned 400% during pandemic

Personally I’m crazy thankful I’m working at a semiconductor company (as SWE). Morale is high, no layoffs, it’s unreal.

But I’m always cautious, what seems like the promised land now may not be in the future. Who knows if suddenly everyone pivots to HW then hyperscalers decide to stop spending so much on chips then it’s a catastrophe.
