The Wall street bankers will be rejoicing now. In the past few years, Lawsky has been constantly hounding them, pulling the licenses and fining them hundreds of millions of USD. Many bankers were also forced to resign. Anyway... I heard that he is going to start his own consultancy, rather than joining Coinbase. No confirmation on it yet.
