    Five years ago today, Ethereum had a flash crash down to ten cents on GDAX (Coinbase Pro) before subsequently recovering.

    @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!

    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.

    @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.

    @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.

    @lynk0x Also: Ethereum flash crash on Gdax (June 21, 2017) BTC flsh crash on Kraken (October 11, 2019) BTC flash crash on BITMEX (March 13, 2020) BTC liquidation cascade across multiple exchanges (February 5, 2021) ETH flash crash on Kraken (May 19th, 2022) ... CEX's are the issue.

    @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.

    @ScottDa81001051 Hey @ScottDa81001051; afraid it's pretty tough nowadays. Used to use GDAX/CB Pro, but it's impossible nowadays with the maker fees + tighter spreads. Looked at @BitMEX for their negative maker fees, but it was too competitive.

    I’ve been with you guys since y’all were available. I was there for GDAX. Been rocking with y’all for years, but y’all failing me. Big time. I can’t access anything. Says order in hold, then canceled, and then says I have nothing in account. But I see alotta activity.Super upset

    @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

    @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.

    @raveneverdies @SharkyMcStevenn @coinbase That was 4 years ago. Btc launched at 400 if I remember; went to $4000 in a matter of hours. Coinbase shut gdax down and when it came back it was around $800. A lot of people lost money just like how shib went from 0.00007 to 0.0000007. They knew what they did

    @brian_armstrong I bought a bulk of my btc early from cb pro and GDAX after seeing the **** yall do I’m 95% on cold and will never draw btc from yall again. Lack of security, no transparency and horrendous customer service 🤡 Kinda like you contradict the whole point of btc 👀

    Ultimately 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

    @JasonYanowitz CB Pro predated the Paradex acc by at least 2 years -- it was just called GDAX. Paradex was shut down shortly after acquisition. It isn't accurate to say it became Pro. CB picked up at least one great and really funny engineer tho.

    When **** 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.

    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
