I was referring to a previous article... they omitted the severance package altogether, which was a key detail of the story and all other major outlets did mention it. It is clear that NYT is being scetchy-dishonest/has an axe to grind, or just plain sloppy/incompetent.

"Two months earlier, dozens of Coinbase employees had staged a walkout after executives were slow to express solidarity with Black Lives Matter protesters and minority employees, several workers said. In his post, Mr. Armstrong said employees who disagreed with his “no politics” stance could leave."

"About 60 Coinbase employees, or 5 percent of the work force, have resigned, the company said. A spokeswoman declined further comment."

They might have not lied on the article, but by omitting details they completely changed the narrative of the story to protect whatever cause they have. This second article, has an air of blackmmail to me.
