"Coinbase Lawyer" Label Triggers Pro-Crypto Advocate Bill Morgan's Fury

Just had to witness Bill Morgan lose his shit online after some idiot media outlet wrongly tagged him as a “Coinbase lawyer.” Talk about touching a nerve! This happened just a day after he stepped into that whole XRP price manipulation drama.

On Sunday, Morgan practically exploded on X when he spotted some trending post that misidentified him. You should’ve seen it - he wasn’t just correcting the record, he was genuinely offended. Like being associated with that exchange was some kind of personal attack!

What makes this extra spicy is the timing. The crypto community’s been buzzing with conspiracy theories about how that major exchange might be deliberately tanking XRP prices. Reports showed they slashed their XRP holdings by a massive 69% - dropping from 780 million to just 199 million tokens. Naturally, everyone jumped to conclusions about market manipulation.

Morgan had actually defended the exchange earlier, claiming XRP was just following its usual pattern - the same pattern it showed when the exchange merely delisted the token without any market activity. Ironic that after playing devil’s advocate, he gets slapped with this “Coinbase lawyer” label he apparently finds so insulting.

Despite acknowledging the exchange’s hostile stance toward XRP, Morgan insisted their reduced holdings aren’t proof of manipulation. But make no mistake - he wants NOTHING to do with being called their lawyer. The way he reacted, you’d think they called him something truly offensive.

I find it fascinating how tribal crypto still is. Morgan’s reaction speaks volumes about the deep divisions in this space. One minute you’re defending an exchange’s actions, the next you’re outraged at being associated with them. The crypto world remains as contradictory and dramatic as ever.
