Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has sharply criticized the decision by UK television networks to ban his company’s ad. In a public statement, he didn’t hold back in challenging the British stance on cryptocurrencies and questioned the state of the country’s financial system.
🔇 Ad Banned? That Says Something…
Armstrong posted on X, saying that the Coinbase ad in the UK “sparked strong reactions,” and its ban speaks volumes: “If you're not allowed to say something, maybe there’s a grain of truth in it.”
While he didn’t issue a direct political statement about British authorities, he hinted that the financial system needs an upgrade. In his view, the crypto revolution could be the path toward modernization and a more equitable financial system.

🎲 “Crypto Isn’t Gambling,” Armstrong Says
One of the main issues, according to Armstrong, is the outdated public perception of crypto in the UK. “Many people here still view crypto as a form of gambling — a very outdated view,” he said.
He believes this mindset is precisely why the UK is falling behind in tapping into the full potential of digital assets. Instead of fearing innovation, authorities should embrace crypto as a tool to improve financial systems.
💥 “Censorship Only Makes Us Stronger”
In conclusion, Armstrong stated that Coinbase welcomes all attacks and censorship efforts. “You’re only helping to spread our message,” he said. His response has once again stirred debate about crypto’s role in the future of finance — and whether the UK is truly ready for it.
