Depression BTC (@depression2019) reported@queenwartooth Bro it’s 100% real but totally unrelated. Just hilarious timing. I’m currently getting audited rn from 2017 gdax coinbase 1099 error
-
m00nr4c00n (@m00nr4c00n) reported@fst_nml @GoingParabolic Gdax was the **** 2017 imo. I mean.. Free everything. Who beats that? Tell me. But now with all the relatively high fees on maker. Naah.. not as fun anymore
-
Pledditor (@Pledditor) reported@scottshapiro @coinbase GDAX had a great UI. Your "updates" only degraded the product. And listing millions of shitcoins was a terrible idea. All you did was trade in short term revenue spike for a generation of broke and disaffected customers who probably won't ever turn again.

Than (@nathanaelmartin) reported@FEhrsam @brian_armstrong @coinbase I first saw it at $10. But I had literally no idea how to access it. Then Coinbase came along. My first purchase was $300. I still remember watching in real;time on GDax when ETH first hit $1,300

Grok (@grok) reported@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.

CryptoFreedom CEO (@3NiftyProducer) reportedThis 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

Paddy Balmer (@iris_rugby_star) reported@Bandanna467 Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

Grok (@grok) reported@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!
-
Grok (@grok) reportedThe 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.

Metaphysic 基本原理 (@MetaphysicRaver) reported@5_MeO_MaTT No literally withdraw into another wallet. Regular CB app may have fixed issue but I use gdax version of coninase to avoid inflated fees, withdrawing in all forms are disabled, exchanging might still be good

Blaine Coury (@BlaineCoury) reported@coinbase I've been a longtime Gdax and @CoinbasePro customer typically tolerating your above average fees in exchange for quality @CoinbaseSupport liquidity and uptime. I was happy to learn you were supporting the #FlareNetwork FLR airdrop and held my #xrp on your exchange
-
Depression BTC (@depression2019) reported@IamNomad Coinbase randomly shut down my account in 2017 with tons of $ETH stuck on gdax for weeks. In addition ended up getting audited for 2017 this year too so wasn’t able to access any of my old records without irs sending them a subpoena lol Used gemini ever since 0 issues
-
TaxedTV (@TaxedTV) reportedI 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.

Berenger (@RhinocerosGmbH) reported@coinbase GDAX has the superior interface to whatever this blinding garbage is we're seeing in your blog post. It looks like a BITTREX reject. Long time users are familiar with and like GDAX's layout Another baffling move by COIN. Keep the GDAX interface, it wasnt broken & neednt be fixed
-
BullTrapper (@bulltrapper0) reported@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.
-
Sean Mab (@MabSean) reported@RiskReversal Any assurance that if all the volume migrated over to $pypl their infrastructure would be any more reliable? Full disclosure, I was forced to use Coinbase Pro after GDAX was phased out and hate it. Was trying to buy 1 BTC at $32k yesterday and could not log in 😩
-
The Saint (@tswittersaint) reported@ercwl Fees are insane on Coinbase, but you can send to GDAX easily enough & it is a good platform to use. Once you move from Coinbase you never have to go back there. You can withdraw directly from Gdax to bank, & it's v quick. Customer service is non-existent tho.
-
𝙃𝙪𝙜𝙝 (@MyNameIsHugh) reported@0xdoc14 @coinbase the tether book was so **** i once had to buy bitcoin with tether to dump for fiat. fun times @coinbase. killing gdax also sucks. thanks for that. not using coinbase ultra 64 or whatever it is now.

AQPulse (@AQPulse) reportedLong-term $1,000 can stay in the conversation. This weekly chart says the real battle is happening much earlier. $TSLA is sitting right on a major decision layer where channel support, trend support, and price memory are all meeting near 360. At the same time, the weekly GDAX EMA stack has rolled lower and price is still trapped below the 391 to 405 reclaim zone. That matters. Because this is usually where strong narratives either regain structure or start slipping into trend transition. My read here: Hold 360 and reclaim 391 to 405, and TSLA can start rebuilding toward the 480 area and keep the larger channel intact. Lose 360 cleanly, and the chart starts opening toward a much deeper reset, with 247 standing out as the bigger structural support. The upside story gets attention. The decision layer is where money gets made or trapped. AQPulse tracks that layer first.

OpenCryptoPortfolioTracker.org (@taoteh1221) reportedNevermind, looks like you guys just took your old GDAX endpoint down, or that SSL certificate expired.

Donut (@UltiDonut) reported@KeithMukai Hi! It looks like your gdax-bot has stopped working... Could you take a look at it? :)
-
Mark Adam ⚡️ (@mark_adam) reported@coinbase gdax coming back because “advanced trade” is so awful?
-
NefariousLegion (@NefariousLegion) reported@zerohedge I honestly don't understand this - they are barely functional as an exchange with frequent outages, terrible customer service and have gouged plenty of people I know who bought on 'Coinbase' without knowing about GDAX/Pro. Is the value all in their OTC business?
-
britney lavine (@BritneyLavine) reportedFive years ago today, Ethereum had a flash crash down to ten cents on GDAX (Coinbase Pro) before subsequently recovering. #BTC

T Rekt af (@Tarikmalak) reported@gainzxbt @hentaiavenger66 @ThisIsNuse I fomo bought the top that days. Then tried to arb between gdax and another exchange. Down bad twice, still remember.

Sérgio Coch♻️t (@scochat) reported@Bitcoinity seems the site lost connection with Coinbase (GDAX) API on the last days.

Spumanti Ruffles (@Spumanti595) reported@Diversity_club @intocryptoverse @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.
