I’m thrilled to share that I’m joining Coinbase as Chief Marketing Officer! I’ve long been a fan of @Coinbase as a product and as a disruptive brand willing to fight for economic freedom around the world. I can’t wait to roll up my sleeves with @brian_armstrong, @emiliemc, and the rest of the team, at a time when the very definition of finance is changing and crypto is finally becoming more accessible and open. Let’s do this 🚀
Replying to @coinbase
It’s @catferdon, our new Chief Marketing Officer. She’s joining Coinbase to help us keep the number of crypto users going up only. With deep experience championing disruptive technology, most recently as CMO of @CashApp, Cat is the perfect person to steer our mission of onboarding a billion users and increasing economic freedom around the world.

I'm hiring a Head of Social Support @Coinbase, and I'll be honest: the bar is high. I'm looking for someone who is calm under fire, great at social, fluent in crypto and sees every reply as an opportunity to build trust. If that sounds like you, my DMs are open - let's talk!

The sheer scale of a trillion dollars can be hard to comprehend. Let me put it in perspective. You would have to earn a dollar a year for a trillion years straight to have that much money.

you know you struck a chord when people text you about an ad. my phone blew up when this ran during the NBA finals last night (and several texts came from self-proclaimed vest-wearing finance bros). the memes are still incoming and the general gist is: 'i feel seen lol’ love working with this team & glad to know the message landed with so many who are willing to laugh with us
