Coinbase Hits UK Hard: Viral Video Exposes Deep Flaws in Financial System as Crypto Gains Edge
By Isabella Flores August 1, 2025 3 min read
Key Takeaways:
* Coinbase launches viral satire video criticizing the UK’s financial system, calling for urgent updates.
* 44% of UK adults are now financially vulnerable, according to new data from Fair4All Finance.
* The UK’s crypto leadership slips as policy delays allow the US and EU to pull ahead in blockchain innovation.
In a sharp and unapologetic move, Coinbase has taken aim at the UK’s broken financial system. With biting satire and a catchy tune, the crypto giant delivers a brutal reality check, just as fresh data confirms that nearly half of the UK’s adult population faces financial hardship.
The video “Everything is Fine” presents a stark contrast to the financial reality on the ground. Against a cheerful melody, visuals of deteriorating homes, empty wallets, and grimy streets paint a far more dire picture. The message is clear: the UK’s traditional financial system is failing its citizens.
The video mocks rising prices and stagnant wages, with one sarcastic lyric noting: “These fish fingers are a steal, just 100 pounds a meal.” In another line, it praises “clean streets” as scenes of filth and neglect flash across the screen. Coinbase’s caption accompanying the post was equally provocative: “If everything is fine, then don’t change anything at all. But when the financial system isn’t working for so many people in the UK, it needs to be updated.”
The timing couldn’t be more pointed.
Fair4All Finance’s report highlights a staggering 44% of adults in the UK – 20.3 million people are now financially vulnerable.
