Title: Coinbase buy price... Post by: tvbcof on February 08, 2014, 09:34:44 PM ...is notably higher than I could get on the exchanges I just noticed (me selling.) Not sure what that means, but it is not something I've noticed very often before since I've been a customer of theirs. I assume that it means that they wish to have BTC for their buying clients, and I would expect that by now their algorithms are sufficiently advanced to reflect their own market dynamics reasonable well (and adjust safely and reasonably quickly.)

If you add them all together and divide by 4 you get a number very close to Coinbase's sell price... |
