Title: Coinbase banned Germany & Luxembourg (cross-post) Post by: BitCinderella on July 07, 2016, 01:37:44 PM Could this be why the price is falling?
Could German traders confirm? Hey, I am logged into my account Coinbase to buy Bitcoins. I get the following message: Sorry! Buy & Sell not available in Germany We are not able to Provide exchanging bitcoin in your region yet. Consider Contacting your local government. Learn More> It seems to be also affected Luxembourg alongside Germany. The rest of Europe (32) are not affected. Since Localbitcoin is banned in Germany, seems probably because the German "local government" there which prohibit. Does anyone have any info, is on what legal basis prohibited here?

Just use Kraken then ;) Title: Re: Coinbase banned Germany & Luxembourg (cross-post) Post by: BitCinderella on July 07, 2016, 01:48:05 PM Just use Kraken then ;) Not German myself. I didn't know they're cracking down though, even Loacalbitcoin doesn't work in Germany :( The site itself is not banned, you can still open it from Germany. However, localbitcoins itself decided not to serve customers in Germany anymore.
