It's not just about the method of communication, it's also about being made whole. These people should be getting severance. Also in America your healthcare is almost inextricably tied to your employer.

Perhaps this is a moment where those that would get a severance at all with a job loss acknowledge that workers rights matter, for everyone. You think that a majority of the restaurant workers during the lockdowns got severances? Perhaps it's time we separate healthcare from our workplace. If it wasn't crypto, maybe I'd be more sympathetic. Bad bets made all around in this case.

According to the article, they likely are getting severance.

Those affected will gain access to the company’s “generous severance philosophy” and “a talent hub to allow them to opt-in to receive additional support services.” (The details surrounding the severance package are unclear, but some affected workers on Blind alleged they would receive two months worth of base pay; a representative from Coinbase did not provide further comment.)

I don't want a severance philosophy, I want a package.

They are getting a severance package.
