Title: Coinbase: Instant buy, pending buys, and Shift card
Post by: pacman7331 on January 18, 2018, 12:36:35 PM
I put some money into Coinbase. I heard a lot of horror stories about Coinbase years ago. But coming back to crypto economy recently I heard Max Keiser recocmend Coinbase. So i'm giving it a try...

I noticed however when you want to buy a coin the platform appears to require many days to complete the transaction. I also heard there was an "instant buy" feature. But I cannot find that feature on my interface. https://news.bitcoin.com/coinbase-users-can-now-use-bank-accounts-to-instantly-purchase-cryptocurrency/

I also ordered a Shift Card. To yes... spend my crypto when needed. But apparently it's not arrived. yet.

Anyone have any experience with these issues? Pending transactions, Instant buy, or the Shift card? Your thoughts on Coinbase?

Thanks...

**UPDATE** Shift card did arrive.
