-
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!

Puffball Cinderalla (@Puffball470) reported@Bandanna467 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.
-
Rai (@Rai_A_Mujahid) reported@brian_armstrong @brian_armstrong I miss the good ol GDAX days. If you truly believe in the long term, then fix your ludicrous fees! Otherwise your stock is going 6 ft under….

𝕀𝕟𝕊𝕚𝕝𝕚𝕔𝕠 🌈🐻 (@insiliconot) reportedWhen **** hits the fan, u wont be able to exit, they even turning the ******* exchanges off now when it becomes bad, because books is empty. Those who doesnt turn it off like gdax(coinbase) last week, have 2k spread. People who believe we liquid, will learn hard lesson.
-
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?

roberta kanda (@robertakanda) reported@vipzdepalmas Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.
-
Liam Heeger (@CantelopePeel) reportedUltimately Coinbase's exchange product was hobbled by existing regulations in US. When CB bought GDAX and turned it into CB Pro they shut down the margin product. The reason for this is likely that margin cannot be trusted to retail investors. 2/n

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
-
britney lavine (@BritneyLavine) reportedFive years ago today, Ethereum had a flash crash down to ten cents on GDAX (Coinbase Pro) before subsequently recovering. #BTC
-
Charlie Lee (@SatoshiLite) reportedAfter taking the summer off in 2016 to work on Litecoin SegWit, I went part time at Coinbase and worked mostly from home. At that time I asked Brian if we can add LTC support given how successful the Ethereum launch was. Brian reluctantly agreed to launch on GDAX only.

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
-
Mike Horton (@mikehorton) reported@tier10k well, coinbase pro is garbage during high volume events...and has been since the gdax days...so maybe that's what he was referencing. still dumb though.
-
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.
-
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 😩
-
Bob Donnelly (@OriginalMrBob) reported@brian_armstrong It all started after your computer glitch on December 14, 2021. I stopped counting time after spending 20 hours on email, and phone calls because it was aggravating. I had Coinbase & GDAX (Coinbase Pro), I used to refer people, but not lately. Please help.
-
christopher buchanan (@crisis_buchanan) reported@B_Impossible83 Absolutely terrible idea by coinbase the interface is atrocious. This is truly bad news. What happened to the good ole days when they were gdax. It's gone downhill ever since.
-
Alex (@Alex343) reportedwhen i first bought bitcoin it was called #GDAX, then they rebranded to Coinbase Pro. but since noobs like me are the ones using it, it is again rebranded to @CoinbaseExch... and they still dont have lightning support
-
James (@sometrader78) reported@JasonThePleb Total **** show over there. They were so much better when they were GDAX. I have no idea what happened.

William Graham (@williamgrahamiv) reportedHey @gdax @coinbase @CoinbaseSupport: the new red and green colors on the Coinbase Pro website are awful. They are too muted. What happened to traditional red and green? This space needs energy, not sedation.

Godsibb (@Godsibb) reported@Evan_ss6 When the epic down wick happened back on Gdax (now known as coinbase) and bring the system offline, someone's limited order filled, 1000 ETH for less than $1000 USD.
-
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.
-
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
-
Matt Casto (@mcasto_) reported@ASvanevik Was a smart rebrand on their end after their BCH listing debacle as well as the event where Eth traded down to like $.10 on gdax
-
The Developer (@PentarchyDev) reported@fintechfrank I still remember when coinbase pro (gdax) only had 4 tokens lol I had to get my fix from HitBTC and Cryptopia
-
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
-
memo (@mrtom31) reported@zhusu There are issue with GDAX especially when there is dump in BTC. Last one few days ago GDAX was inaccessible. During the drop USDC droped to of -16%. How can you win a trade like this?
-
Edward (@Maverickteenxd) reported@Splinxes That's not possible from Texas. If I try to convert on an exchange, let's say Pancake Swap, I get Binance-Peg Ethereum, not native token ETHER which is the only ETHER Coinbase or that even GDAX support for that matter.
