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.

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

Anoop (@anoop2822) reported@BrentJo77143717 @Bitcoinsensus I remember that day but it was kinda glitch on gdax’ part. The organic correction was from $420 to $140 and then back to new ATH which took another 6 months or so i believe

Donut (@UltiDonut) reported@KeithMukai Hi! It looks like your gdax-bot has stopped working... Could you take a look at it? :)

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.

Chusta | Danny (@La_chusta) reported@crypto_bitlord7 @coinbase While knowing what GDAX was felt cool, switching to Coinbase Pro made a lot of sense from a branding perspective - and now consolidating into the Coinbase app is what it should have been all along… the easier it is for a consumer to access core features, the better.

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.

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!

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.
-
Tom Heal (@Tom_Heal) reported@DogSpence @brian_armstrong It's "obscured" because they purchased the pro website from the original GDAX - basically coinbase started without market making, only purchasing via coinbase with custody. They are integrating the two - hence why pro is shutting down and they opened the market entry on CB

American Creed, SCH (@ACFederation) reported@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.

AQPulse (@AQPulse) reportedA 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.
