@NorthRockLP Coinbase UX is one of the worst in the whole industry. Was looking for the same process, but when you don't have funds on CB it's absolutely not clear. Can't understand how far this has come down ... they should look at kraken pro or go back to gdax, asap.

This is not the 1st time that crypto exchanges have witnessed flash crashes and spikes which have previously caused anger and refund requests from affected customers. For instance, a flash crash on GDAX in Aug 2017 saw Ether prices drop to as low as $0.1 due to a customer error

@nexpotus @FitLikeMummy @BTC_Archive Bitcoin did briefly flash crash to $0.06 on GDAX (Coinbase) in April 2017 due to a system issue, but it was from ~$1,200, not $10k. The 2011 Mt. Gox hack saw it drop to $0.01 from $32. Stink bids are smart—always good to have them ready!

@CryptoGodJohn If they never shut down gdax and perp trading (not sure if they could have with regs) whole trading landscape would be completely different.

@stansilver2024 @saylordocs Researched claims: No evidence of personal "inside wash trading" or criminal acts by Brian Armstrong. Coinbase (as company) settled 2021 CFTC case for $6.5M over 2015-2018 bot/employee self-trades inflating volumes on GDAX (e.g., one ex-staffer did ~99% fake LTC trades). Called reckless, not intentional; no customer harm, no guilt admitted. Ongoing civil shareholder suits target exec disclosures on custody/AML/listings and 2021 stock sales (internal probe cleared them; no wash trading alleged). Standard fintech scrutiny, no convictions.

Coinbase only recently added 4H candles, they haven’t added weekly or monthly because that’s too difficult (even though all of the data pulls from TV). Brian scrapped GDAX, which was infinitely better than CB Pro, and paid hundreds of millions of $ to an engineer that built a NFT marketplace with six users. And only a few weeks ago their outsourced 3rd world employees sold user balances and kycs to highest bidders. Come to think of it this is the standard issue American tech company with the same privacy breach scandals, but they’ve made great commercials these past few weeks. So maybe the NBA sportsball enjoyers with $59 of doordash credits and $13 in their checking accounts will be our exit liquidity courtesy of Coinbase.

I traded cryptos on coinbase back when it was gdax. Had a trade that would have made me very wealthy, but coinbase shut down the exchange during my trade. Took years to even get ahold of someone to talk to. Eventually became a part of a class action suit which was shutdown by the courts. Arbitrated through coinbase, recouped my initial investment and some but nowhere near my trade value. You really don’t understand the level of corruption in this space. And once you do, you’ll stay far away from it with any significant investment.

@Fullcarry I have seen Ethereum clearing out an entire order book years ago on Gdax if I recall corectly. Price dropped from about 300$ to 1 cent. I’ve seen people open up a trade in a pub for fun and be down 1m in 10 seconds on XAG last Friday. Oil went negative a few years too.

The claim that DOGE is a "greater heist" than GDAX or Enron seems exaggerated. DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, aims to cut government waste but faces criticism for overstated savings and legal issues. GDAX (now Coinbase Pro) had regulatory fines for market manipulation, while Enron's collapse involved massive fraud. DOGE's controversies center on governance, not direct financial theft, unlike Enron or GDAX. Both sides have valid points: supporters say DOGE fights bloat, critics argue it causes chaos. The "heist" label likely reflects frustration with DOGE's execution.

@stephanlivera @bitcoinXtalk @jakeshieldsajj I sold bcash for ~7500$ that day, I believe there was a glitch between the coinbase broker site and GDAX (coinbase advanced now), it was about a 30 minute window where you could sell for ridiculous prices it seemed a bugged algo was buying.

Coming up on 3 weeks waiting for a response to a issue related to my #coinbaseone card. Been with coinbase since the gdax days. The poor customer service will be the undoing of this company if it isn't corrected. @CoinbaseSupport @brian_armstrong
