Coinbase Marks IPO With Memo on Bitcoin Blockchain

Coinbase has commemorated its public Nasdaq listing by posting a message to the Bitcoin blockchain.

Coinbase Refers to Relief Bill

Coinbase embedded a message that referred to a New York Times news headline from Mar. 10, 2021, that discussed the U.S. government’s trillion-dollar COVID-19 stimulus plan.

The headline reads: “NYTimes 10/Mar/2021 House Gives Final Approval to Biden’s $1.9T Pandemic Relief Bill.”

Coinbase asked the mining pool F2Pool to encode the message on block 679,187 of the Bitcoin blockchain, the first block mined after Coinbase was listed on the Nasdaq stock market.

A Nod to Satoshi Nakamoto

Coinbase said the message that it published was a “nod to Satoshi,” the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin who encoded a similar message on Bitcoin’s first-ever block.

In 2009, Satoshi added a message into Bitcoin’s genesis block highlighting concerns around bank bailouts in the U.K. His note read: “The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on the brink of second bailout for banks.” That headline was from a London Times article published the same day Bitcoin’s first block was mined.

Reading between the lines, Coinbase’s message may be considered a criticism of government spending and promotion of cryptocurrency as an alternative to mainstream money.

Solana price gains amid BTC uptick to $71k: Can SOL bounce to $100?

Solana Price Bullish

  • Solana price touched $90 as Bitcoin broke to above $71,000 on Wednesday.
  • Bulls could eye $100 and higher if BTC explodes further.
  • Solana’s outlook hinges on sustained ETF inflows and resolution in geopolitical tensions.

Solana is trading above $90 as of March 4, 2026, with the price seeing slight gains amid an impressive intraday bounce for Bitcoin (BTC).

As BTC trades above $71,000, broader optimism across crypto suggests the psychological $100 level is likely for SOL.

Momentum has currently put the altcoin on the cusp of a key pattern breakout, with Solana’s resilience across the ETFs market crucial to buy-side appeal.

Solana gains amid BTC, ETH uptick

Solana’s price action has closely aligned with gains in leading cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

On Wednesday, Bitcoin retested recent highs above $71k, bolstered by sustained institutional interest despite the war in Iran.  

Ethereum also pushed higher, with slight gains putting bulls above the $2,000 mark.

Meanwhile, the Solana price rose 6% to hit intraday highs above the $90 mark.

SOL has not traded above $100 since breaking below the psychological level in early February.

Renewed bearishness amid the Iran war threatened to send bulls bleeding below recent support levels.

However, Bitcoin has sprung above its key supply wall as buyers resurface, and optimism in the cryptocurrency market sees SOL trade in the same direction.

Could an upward breakout take prices past the $100 mark?

Solana price outlook: what next for bulls?

Technically, SOL continues to trade in a downward channel formed since its September 2025 peak above $250.

However, price is tracking an ascending triangle pattern on the daily chart formed since the bounce from the low of $67 on February 6, 2026.

Buyers have found it difficult to break above a key resistance line around $90-$92.

If the altcoin sees a decisive breakout above this mark, it could pave the way for bulls to target $100 and potentially higher.

Solana Chart

Momentum indicators like the Relative Strength Index and Moving Average Convergence Divergence support the bullish setup.

The RSI hovers around 50 on the daily chart, suggesting bulls may have room for additional gains, while the MACD continues to signal upside momentum with an expanding histogram.

If bulls negotiate immediate resistance and break higher, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) at $101 and the 100-day SMA at $116 will be the next hurdles before a potential retest of $150.

However, upside potential remains constrained by the broader descending resistance line tracing back from Solana’s peak in 2025.

A failure to breach $100 might see SOL retrace to
