Title: [2016-05-21] Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Post by: bitcoin730 on May 21, 2016, 09:24:21 AM Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain
Bitcoin is being tested like never before as one of the biggest and oldest Bitcoin company, Coinbase, announced their exchange will be renamed to Global Digital Asset Exchange (GDAX) to support Ethereum trading. A first for the four years old bitcoin company which has never added any other digital currency. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoins-price-tanks-as-coinbase-pivots-and-users-complain/ Title: Re: [2016-05-21] Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Post by: aso118 on May 21, 2016, 01:30:32 PM Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Bitcoin is being tested like never before as one of the biggest and oldest Bitcoin company, Coinbase, announced their exchange will be renamed to Global Digital Asset Exchange (GDAX) to support Ethereum trading.

Doesn't it just dilute an established brand? Title: Re: [2016-05-21] Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Post by: TraderTimm on May 21, 2016, 03:04:15 PM Renaming to GDAX (Mt. Gox German Index, lololol) is probably one of the most idiotic things I've ever seen.

A while ago, I thought Ripple would have been the GovCoin, but I was clearly wrong, and now I see that ETH will be the official GovCoin backed by Coinbase. People should have expected this from a US based service.. We have seen many others doing the same thing.. Xapo / Circle etc. Get ready to be manipulated. ::) Title: Re: [2016-05-21] Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Post by: richardsNY on May 22, 2016, 02:30:20 AM Bitcoin’s Price Tanks as Coinbase Pivots and Users Complain Bitcoin is being tested like never before as one of the biggest and oldest Bitcoin company, Coinbase, announced their exchange will be renamed to Global Digital Asset Exchange (GDAX) to support Ethereum trading.

Doesn't it just dilute an established brand? It's probably some one there with a certain vision of which he/she thinks can get Coinbase to the next level. I agree with you that they should stick to Coinbase as company name, but for some reason they think/hope the new name will gain them more attention from professional traders.

Doesn't it just dilute an established brand? I wondered this too. I think it is a good move to support ETH and other top alts but why change the name, not good for recognition.

Seems to be something they do a lot of the time in a bit of a clunky way. Agree about Ripple also saw them the same way when they where created. |
