T Rekt af (@Tarikmalak) reported@gainzxbt @hentaiavenger66 @ThisIsNuse I fomo bought the top that day. Then tried to arb between gdax and another exchange. Down bad twice, still remember.
-
Haywire (@Haywiiree) reported@riddle245 Personally, I'm trying not to use CB or Gemini if I can help it. I liked CB, but I haven't used it much since. Have used Binance, Bittrex, Binance US, FTX, FTX US, KuCoin, and CB even back when it had GDax integration. Is CB Pro any good?

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.

Theta Research & Capital (@Crypto_MoonKid) reported@TraderMercury Literally. Agree 100%. Support is not existent, fees are completely nuts. At least gdax had 0 maker fees back in the day. Nowadays avoid at all costs.
-
cryptoStar2000 (@CryptoStar2000) reported@ErikVoorhees $VVV and $DIem are totally fine without GDAX coinbase ****… Good things will live on its own..
-
Loken (@0xchigurh) reported@teo_leibowitz this is what happens when you hire a bunch of ex-fb *** to growth hack ur app. It becomes a bloated pile of garbage. cbpro/gdax was infinitely more usable
-
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
-
TyCobbFan (@fan_cobb) reportedim old enough to remember when it was still called gdax and some people bought eth under $1 (down from$300) late one night because someone ran through all the stops and forced puked everyone
-
zillionaireBTCZ (@BtczZillionaire) reported@AnthonyJK Coinbase wallet is where Coinbase makes a killing in fees for the convenience and it’s a gateway to crypto. Start CoinbasePro with the same login (used to be called gdax). Transfers between the two are free. Then, wherever you want to move BTC from there, used LTC to do it.
-
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.
-
SaaS Capo (@SaaSCapo) reported@DeFifrog1 GDAX basically went down every time there was an opportunity for retail to make easy money lol
-
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.

greg alspach (@gregboy02) reported@Nyree344 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

Vipz De Palmas (@vipzdepalmas) reported@Bandanna467 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

Loshan (@loshan1212) reported@SatoshiHitchens @lite_hause @LynAldenContact Stop trying to rewrite history. At the time Coinbase's exchange (GDAX) added ETH (#2) and a few months later they added (#3) litecoin. They were simply expanding customer options to gain more customers.
-
DJ DANIEL B #ScreamingFirehawks #WeWantStargate (@flgamer5242) reported@PippiWestwood Reminds me of the day Coinbase added $BCH and it immediately went over $6K before the platform (GDAX) broke & stayed frozen for several hours before nuking immediately back down once “they” decided it could trade again. Scroll all the way left on $BCH it’s still there…
-
Kevin Costello (@KevinCo31833801) reported@gdax Having trouble with moving cash from coinbase to coinbase pro. Tried this over and over and not working. Also your support page when filling everything out then asks for code sent to email. You try to go back to support page and it vanishes. Never works.

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!

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.
-
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.
-
MadDogLink (@MaddogLink) reported@SizeChad I must be lucky. I never had a single issue with coinbase/pro been using it since gdax. My only complaint is they don't have Yubikey support yet for mobile apps and people have been asking for that for a long time.

Alex Moody (@alex_moody) reported@crymeaCOIN Is this even real? I have the highest access KYC US accounts available on CB and GDAX and havent ever seen this.
-
fpv.eth (@jakeirish_) reported@CryptoskullK Also life hack if you can manage to get access to OG gdax status on Coinbase. You can buy / send assets immediately, no waiting period ever. And pretty much zero fees.
-
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
-
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

Scott Ballantyne (@ussballantyne) reportedIs that the same company that Maggie McGovern was involved with? I really don’t know what happened. Were they forging my signature? Were they sending emails from my gmail account? Did they clone my sim card? Is that how they had access to my gdax account?

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
