Everyday comes a new fud. Not sure about you, but the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency space has always been filled with FUD ever since I became interested in this industry(2016). As for this one, most likely a nothing burger as it seems to be a target towards Coinbase(the company) rather than Bitcoin. It's not like U.S. people are not going to have any exchange alternative if it's the case that Coinbase shuts down(which is very unlikely in itself). Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: Yogee on August 04, 2021, 04:24:55 PM It may be an attempt to extort money from Coinbase but I wouldn't dismiss this as mere FUD. It's as real as it gets unless those who filed are fake people or doesn't have substantial evidence to pursue the case. Those bans on Binance issued by local authorities in UK and Malaysia aren't FUDs either.

Source: Click here (https://t.me/cryptoNotesMohsin/9846) Well this not new since many people really loss money on cryptocurrency and there last resort is filling a lawsuit against the easy target operator. But I wonder how this case will gonna develop considering there's a T&C for all coin base participants indicating all the risk involve in using and investing on crypto. If this kind of case will gonna succeed then crypto business in US will gonna be affected badly and might force them to close because they might be the next target for easy money. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: BitMaxz on August 04, 2021, 07:01:34 PM It's just a telegram link I can't find this on other news blogs and even on cryptopanic.com so this is false news about Coinbase.
The big reason why they want to FUD it's because they want Bitcoin to drop in price so that they can buy bitcoin at a cheaper price. Since the movement price of Bitcoin is different from the old cycle of every block halving we don't know if this is the dip price. That's is why they make some FUD out there and make it trending to push the price down to get an advantage and buy at cheap price.

Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: MinoRaiola on August 04, 2021, 07:45:23 PM These negative messages are like annoying google reviews = every second one is written out of envy. I don't want to write about the negative news, but to note something positive.
Coinbase is the first company ever to receive permission from BaFin for crypto custody business in Germany. Since Coinbase was listed on the Nasdaq exchange, it has become popular and at best easier to grab by the authorities. Coinbase is leading the way for other providers. In Germany, you can buy bitcoin on Coinbase for long time, but now there is an official approval from the BaFin. "The granting of the licenses is the culmination of months of hard work by the Coinbase team, in close cooperation with BaFin," says Sascha Rangoonwala, Country Manager for Coinbase in Germany. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: bL4nkcode on August 04, 2021, 08:37:10 PM This is more like negative news for coinbase, well, it's their own move to do that, and it doesn't and will not affect bitcoin price now and in the future.
Probably will have a huge effect to their stocks but not bitcoin. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: dothebeats on August 04, 2021, 08:55:59 PM This will only affect Coinbase and not much on bitcoin. They have been receiving lots of these types of request and cases in the past and so far nothing has been successful into bringing them down. Well, if this new lawsuit gains traction and actually attracted lots of backers and testimonials against the scammy behavior of Coinbase, it will not be the end of the world. Bitcoin will still function perfectly well and would not really harm the network in any way, though some effects on the market can be felt that's for sure.

Quite often coinbase encounters some issues compared to other crypto service providers. We don't know the level of truth, but we can see more news associated with coinbase often. As said in the quote it can be a self made one or it can be an ongoing issue faced by the coinbase firm. For this reason they're going to be affected and not the bitcoin. It was in the past, such news to create panic and affect the market.Probably will have a huge effect to their stocks but not bitcoin. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: Hydrogen on August 04, 2021, 10:55:15 PM It is possible coinbase has had one class action lawsuit or another filed against it since its founding.
Quote Coinbase Hit by Lawsuit Over Alleged Insider Trading Mar 5, 2018 According to a court document dated last Thursday, the case has been brought by Jeffery Berk, representing a group of investors that placed trading orders on Coinbase or its order book trading platform GDAX from Dec. 19–21, 2017. Based on the complaint, the case takes aim at Coinbase’s launch of bitcoin cash (BCH) trading in the same month, with the plaintiffs accusing the company of tipping off insiders ahead of the formal launch. As such, the group accuses the firm of negligence, and is seeking damages, the amount of which will be decided at trial. As previously reported, San Francisco-based Coinbase first announced in August that it would support bitcoin cash – a new crypto asset that was forked from the bitcoin blockchain in November. At the time, the exchange said the new service would go live by Jan. 1, after which investors would be able to withdraw bitcoin cash. When Coinbase launched BCH trading on Dec. 20, BCH prices spiked just prior to the announcement and accusations soon appeared on social media suggesting that employees of the firm might have tipped off others in advance. The company responded to the claims by announcing it would conduct an investigation into whether any staff members may have violated its insider trading rules. https://www.coindesk.com/coinbase-hit-lawsuit-alleged-insider-trading .... The above seemed like a damning case against coinbase from 2017 where the value of bitcoin cash began to climb on exchanges, even before coinbase had officially released the announcement of listing it. There was another class action lawsuit filed against coinbase, that I remember from years ago. Coinbase accepted orders and money from clients trying to buy crypto. Weeks, or in some cases months passed, without clients receiving the crypto they paid for. That was another class action lawsuit filed against coinbase years ago. I would post a link. Unfortunately search engines are mostly listing the most recent class action lawsuit filed against coinbase. It doesn't seem like I will have an easy chance finding a source for it. Long story short, there have been so many lawsuits filed against corporations like coinbase its hard to keep track of them all. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: Oceat on August 04, 2021, 11:06:18 PM New fud yet the market doesn't care with this one and it seems that it's not really connected to Bitcoin after all, but if the News says coinbase has been hacked then that would probably make the market to start dumping. I don't know about this News why there's a lawsuit against them it seems that they have some unfinished business in the past that just now showed up.
Anyway, let's just move on but if you are using this exchange you might want to do something about your funds inside just in case. We never know if the exchange would continue to operate if one of their lawsuit pinned them down that might cripple Coinbase itself. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: Ziskinberg on August 04, 2021, 11:35:33 PM We found out that spreading FUDs is a winning game for those who want to manipulate the market before but for now, people are already aware and simply they just ignore it. They will just fail.
But anyways, it seems not to worry about if the lawsuit is true or it was just a FUD, a lot of fake news around, honestly. I'd never use Coinbase exchange since before and I never keep my cryptos to any exchanges, so I'm still safe. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: just_Alice on August 04, 2021, 11:51:17 PM Seems like false news to me. Not many sources are talking about it, though maybe it’s too fresh and in days we’ll see this information in more media. But I wouldn’t believe it for now.
Besides, wasn’t there news about a class action lawsuit against Coinbase just recently? Here, from Doge trader: https://cryptobriefing.com/coinbase-sued-for-over-deceptive-dogecoin-campaign/ At least that article has the link to the real document so that one, I believe, is true. This one looks more like an attempt to advertise someone’s firm on a false hype. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: dansus021 on August 05, 2021, 02:36:48 AM new day new fud, bad news to bitcoin it already exist from beggining of this coin was created but targeting coinbase i thing the lawsit will fail like the xrp or the usdt

Definitely looks fake, but the few news portal sites reporting about it make it unlikely tbh. It's basically Coinbase being an ass of a company and not doing their job properly, I hardly think this is a FUD for the crypto scene. Coinbase closing down doesn't seem like it would, nor should, affect the market.
Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: dimonstration on August 05, 2021, 02:41:10 AM Coinbase closing down doesn't seem like it would, nor should, affect the market. Seriously? Coinbase is the highest volume exchange on US and so far the most trust trusted Centralized wallet & exchange out there. Closing Coinbase means losing lots of volume on crypto market and this will create a FUD that will strongly affect the current market especially right now that Bitcoin is still trying to find the clear trend. One major FUD will gonna rekt the momentum right now. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: pooya87 on August 05, 2021, 04:22:35 AM Now i want to know from you guys is this type of Fud ~ You are confusing negative news with FUD, not everything negative is FUD.In simple terms FUD is the lies or false news that is being spread to cause Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt among bitcoin owners to fool them into making a bad decision and sell their bitcoins to the market manipulators. Assuming this news is not a lie, it is simply a negative news and not a big one at that. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: leea-1334 on August 05, 2021, 04:24:47 AM It's only breaking because they paid media to publish this,,, I bet you every exchange before has had many multiple class action lawsuits against them from various places. But most are badly done they get thrown away or not even the media attention:)
This could be interesting but I always feel investors with losses on trading have no say.

The people aren't that stupid and they can distinguish a company from a cryptocurrency. Every big company is dealing with lots of lawsuits.How many lawsuits do companies like Apple,Amazon and Microsoft have?I'm sure that the number is quite big.Can you mention a lawsuit,which had negative impact over the stock prices of those corporations? Quote Fud is now become a common topic in crypto world. FUD exists since day 1 of the crypto world.Don't you know this?Are you some kind of crypto newbie? ;D Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: pugman on August 05, 2021, 11:14:29 PM I mean, I don't think Coinbase will get shut down over this lawsuit, most definitely not. Coinbase is doing ridiculously well in the States, in terms of partnership and what not, and a lawsuit for a mere 100k USD won't do shit to them. And that is all there is. FUD will always exist, no matter what you do. Its just how it is, and its how it will always be. The crypto scene is used to it, the newcomers are not [yet].
Okay nvm, I read about the actual lawsuit over here[1], it does seem serious, but cannot fully determine what is to happen lets see lets see. It will be interesting to see how Coinbase's somewhat new partners react to this, I am expecting a snake bite in the ass but who can really say what happens behind the curtains.

Unfortunately not everyone will understand how this works. The Binance FUD that has been happening this whole past weeks is also really affecting people's faith in Bitcoin although nothing of the two are at all connected. Very strange right? MtGOX fud before was understandable as most people were using it for their BTC but today with so many options, this is just news of one company, not anything to do with the network.

Assuming this news is not a lie, it is simply a negative news and not a big one at that. Too late, the FUD thing is too deep engraved, if something is bad for bitcoin or companies trading or owning bitcoin it is FUD. It doesn't matter if the news is legit, the facts are proved, they still say FUD! Everything that goes against the unicorn dream of lalaland is perceived as FUD! The cult of denial is here! MtGOX fud How the hell was MtGox fud? Where is the uncertainty and doubt that thousands lost millions there? But anyhow, this has nothing to do directly with bitcoin, it's about the Coinbase IPO, and this will probably be solved between the buyers that feel like they were deceived at that time and Coinbase. For sure there will be a private settlement that will not be disclosed. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: magneto on August 06, 2021, 08:26:11 PM There is actually some substance to it, imo.
The fact of the matter is that Coinbase has a notoriously bad customer support system. And instead of fixing that up, they decided to get the founders rich first and conduct an IPO this year. Although that's not securities fraud, that is definitely some shady behaviour. But I can certainly understand the frustraction towards Coinbase and its administration, especially since its share price tumbled since IPO. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: leea-1334 on August 09, 2021, 12:37:12 PM How the hell was MtGox fud? Where is the uncertainty and doubt that thousands lost millions there? The FUD about Bitcoin dying, I thought this was what we are talking about,,, everytime something big and bad happens,,, people spread FUD about Bitcoin. There is no doubt about silk road, about MtGox about China ban. All these are true facts. But they all spread FUD about Bitcoin = dead.

There is no doubt about silk road, about MtGox about China ban. All these are true facts. But they all spread FUD about Bitcoin = dead. No, that's not what we were talking about and I see no way in which you could have come to that idea, nobody mentioned bitcoin, nobody mentioned bitcoin dying, everyone just started screaming FUD, some even without reading the news. So, where are the false facts in this article? Where are the false facts about Binance? Can you claim that any of these (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5353197) are false? Moreover, wherein the article about Coinbase is Bitcoin even mentioned? Seriously, stop labeling everything you don't like as FUD! That's not how it works. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on August 10, 2021, 03:22:42 PM It may be an attempt to extort money from Coinbase but I wouldn't dismiss this as mere FUD. It's as real as it gets unless those who filed are fake people or doesn't have substantial evidence to pursue the case. I wouldn't dismiss it as such, either. And it makes me wonder whether people are either overusing that term "FUD" or just plain don't understand what it means. A class action lawsuit is the real deal, not some idiot trying to scare people into doing something or not doing something, which is what FUD actually is. Binance will survive this, though. They've shown that they're a legitimate exchange that's keen on complying with various countries' laws and regulations, even if they may have made mistakes. And who knows what the result of this lawsuit is going to be, anyway? It's not as though all of them are successful, though I think a lot of them are settled for substantial cash amounts. If that happens in this case, I'd imagine that Binance would increase its fees and other expenses their customers have to pay. Hopefully it won't be any worse than that. Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: The Cryptovator on August 10, 2021, 07:53:39 PM Nothing will happen actually. Either it's FUD or real news, I don't think Coinbase doing something illegal that would be the reason shutdown it. Complying with the rules would be mandatory where are you running a business. So if Coinbase missing something it would be corrected. But sadly, we react immediately when this kind of news comes from us. We just turn it into FUD. Nothing else. Many FUD heard about many crypto exchanges, but still nothing happens.
Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: bakasabo on August 10, 2021, 08:17:11 PM Coinbase is one of the biggest exchanges, but not the only one. Even if the fud is real, people would just move to other eschange, thanks god there are plenty of them. Even if we “lose” coinbase, as it is kyc oriented, we wont lose a lot. I think this fud was more oriented on Coinbase COIN stock, than on cryptocurrency in general.
Title: Re: Coinbase New FUD Post by: sunsilk on August 10, 2021, 10:44:23 PM Meanwhile, there's this news about how much Coinbase have earned and it's on a surge. Maybe there's this connection to this fud or fact?
