    @soupcanarchist If the internet is down or GDAX's are forced to freeze assets... you are going to want to be holding silver as well.

    @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!

    @Rick_Jam3s @TorBair In 2017 when the btc ETF was denied, the only other thing on GDAX (Coinbase) was ETH and LTC. I choose to move my btc into eth because **** it

    @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

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

    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

    @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.

    A dollar losing purchasing power over a century is not the same thing as $DXY breaking down today. Right now, the weekly dollar chart just held its long-term trendline and bounced. The GDAX cross is also close to flipping. That matters. Because structurally, this looks less like a collapse and more like a setup for dollar stabilization, possibly strength.

    @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?

    @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

    @Coinbase sunset GDAX/Pro. What ever could go wrong? Plenty. API and data issues already create chaos at tax time so let's layer this on top. Ugh. Already warning my clients. The history of change failure in this space is a feature, not a bug. Best of luck for us all. We need it.

    @LTC_Concepts bitcoin is more decentralized that this **** manipulated coin. it's only a pump and dump coin with some few guys that own half the total circulating supply. charlie lee wash traded on gdax and sold the top. usually you call this an exit scam, now he own bitcoin but not litecoin

    @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.

    2017 had GDAX/CB Pro for zero fee crypto trading. 2021 has $WOO. Only Americans are barred and I don’t usually do large position sizing through VPN access. Tips @Pentosh1 @ImNotTheWolf

    @SoldNever @Woomwood @CarlBMenger The hell are you even talking about? Did you just figure out how to put sentences together. Yeah it was a glitch when gdax came off of maintenance. They fixed it right away back to the right price. Again how can't you not understand that. Reading isn't your thing?

    @planetoFiji @fern3666 @Morris_Cody They will care if he manipulated the price before selling having worked at coinbase (GDAX) very shady ****. Especially when he was telling everyone to HODL and big partnerships coming every other tweet.

    @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.

    @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…

    @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.

    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.

    @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.

  • AQPulse
    AQPulse (@AQPulse) reported

    Long-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.

    @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.
