You're tuned in to Tech Beat. Here's what's moving today.

Coinbase is back in the black in a significant way. The crypto exchange reported third-quarter net income of seven hundred nineteen million dollars, fueled largely by gains on its own crypto holdings. Revenue held steady at one point two two billion, a sign that the business is stabilizing even as trading volumes stay uneven.

Meanwhile, Reddit is making a move that will reshape how millions of people use the platform. The company confirmed it will require all users to log in, with the change rolling out by the third quarter of two thousand twenty six. That effectively ends anonymous browsing, which has long been one of Reddit's quieter but meaningful features for casual readers.

And on a question that keeps coming up in developer circles, Stack Overflow is pushing back on the narrative that AI has made it obsolete. The company's argument is a reasonable one: the knowledge that lives on Stack Overflow didn't vanish because people are now asking chatbots instead of searching. The underlying infrastructure of answers still exists, and the company behind it is still very much operating.

Keep surfing. Tech Beat out.
