Oh yes judge, my greed was so that I could not help myself, I had to buy the coins, I had no choice, and no they did not ever actually unequivocally ever say that they were actually regulated in California per se, and no I have not actually made an actual loss yet (?) ... and... you get the idea.
You're ranting. That's what happens when you feed the trolls. Meh.. yeah I admit it, in the end I might have got a little ranty there... |

Also two words for you that I would consider very carefully now and in the future "due diligence"
Due diligence on a Sunday night at midnight with huge news being rammed down our throats that turned out to be a lie.  k Morning NotLambChop Ha ha yeah right... lambchop that is a laugh, good one. Yeah that is right, due diligence, try it sometime (before you throw good money after bad at a lawyer) No one forced you to buy the damn coins on a sunday, or forced you to follow the supposed irresistible "hype" you are going on about (which had zero effect on me or any Bitcoiner I know) no one forced you to lose money, these were all your actions, no one held a gun to your head and forced you to do what you did, least of all Coinbase, I cannot even see your logic here at all, not a single bit of it. I do not know if it is the stress that is causing you to act the way you are right now, but you are acting like a fool tbh. You cannot answer the questions because you do not have a bloody leg to stand on and you know it. Oh yes judge, my greed was so that I could not help myself, I had to buy the coins, I had no choice, and no they did not ever actually unequivocally ever say that they were actually regulated in California per se, and no I have not actually made an actual loss yet (?) ... and... you get the idea. (EDIT: I was with a good heart, trying to understand your point of view, which is why I respectfully asked you to explain to me what you felt had happened but instead you dodged answering and then threw some ad hominem in for good measure, from your past posts I assumed you were somewhat more on the ball than you are showing yourself to be at this present moment. I sincerely hope it works out for you in the end) |

Sorry to be thick here.. But so what?
Donny you're out of your element. Right, I see... you are clearly in your element, so I have nothing much to add, good luck with that court case, let us all know how you get on, I am sure it will be a real doozy. Also two words for you that I would consider very carefully now and in the future "due diligence" Just going to pop this here for you. Supported States At the moment Coinbase Exchange is available for US customers with the supported currencies being USD and BTC. The USD wallet is only available to Coinbase customers located in US states where Coinbase is either licensed to engage in money transmission, where it has determined that no such license is currently required, or where licenses are not yet being issued with respect to Coinbase's business. We may expand this in the future to include other countries and currencies but there is no plan for that this stage. |

Sorry to be thick here.. But so what? You are not explaining this very well ?? Also they are media articles, where did COINBASE lie? And how did COINBASE make you buy a shit ton of coins ?? And how did COINBASE make you lose 200k? Question , DID COINBASE THEMSELVES STATE UNEQUIVOCALLY THAT THEY ARE REGULATED IN NY AND CALIFORNIA ?? Or did they actually say something else? |
|

I really am just trying to understand what your point of view is? Is it that off the back of them saying they are the first us regulated exchange , you thought this was bullish for the price? Is it because you feel the lunar launch animation suggested the price was going to the moon? HoHow did they make you buy bitcoins you otherwise would not have? And how did you lose 200k? Did you buy at the top of the price spike, and then sell low? Or what?
First off don't worry about my money or point of view because I don't mean shit. Just focus on the bigger picture of Bitcoin. They rick rolled Bitcoin as a whole by lying to the media about news that was a flat out lie. The state of California even stepped in Tuesday. No telling how many sales they generated through creating this buzz and then not even buying customers BTC until after the market takes a huge plunge. It just smells to high hell. Do your own research I guess. I already have as much information as the next guy to draw research on. I was asking you specifically what you feel happened and how they scammed you , but it seems that you cannot answer the question for some reason I saw that cali regulators stepped in to say lunar/ Coinbase is not regulated in cali, but did Coinbase themselves say they were? Or did they actually say they are "operating in cali" ?? And even if they did say regulated, then why did that cause you to buy a shit ton of btc? And then how did you make an actual loss, what is the mechanism you made the loss by? Is it an actual loss ?? A loss on potential profit, an unrealized (as of yet loss) That is what i was trying to understand from you. Anyway, I wish you luck in your future trading |

I am trying to understand what is it exactly that you are accusing them of, and how did they fool you into buying Bitcoins you otherwise did not want ? And into losing 200k and how did you lose the 200k ?
You can read it in the court papers if you don't understand it yet. I'm not the best person there is to type it out apparently. I am more confused now. I am asking you, as someone who is stating they got scammed , how exactly you got scammed ,and how you lost 200k, it should be relatively easy to explain ? I really am just trying to understand what your point of view is? Is it that off the back of them saying they are the first us regulated exchange , you thought this was bullish for the price? Is it because you feel the lunar launch animation suggested the price was going to the moon? How did they make you buy bitcoins you otherwise would not have? And how did you lose 200k? Did you buy at the top of the price spike, and then sell low? Or what? |

Its hilarious how quiet this thread goes when the price is rising compared to when it falls $10. Just trolls left = confirmed.
10,000 pages ago there actually were interesting posts where people were really analyzing TA and tossing ideas around. Now the best we have is TL;DR walls of text from concern trolls. Lately they've been coming for /r/bitcoinmarkets too. It's pretty bad. I'm not going to post any TA unless newbie jail is brought back. This is the most popular thread on the forum and quality posts get shit on day in and day out from these shills with nothing to contribute. I don't think the newbie jail will change much. These are economically motivated posters who are being allowed to deliberately deface the forum and discredit bitcoin in any way possible. They state openly they want to destroy bitcoin and then proceed to do everything in their (limited) power to bring that about. Posters that have previously been banned from the forum (Atlas and Goat spring to mind) were orders of magnitude less offensive (I found both quite entertaining and interesting tbh). These guys are just cretins who have zero to contribute, their 'criticisms' are the usual baseless lies, FUD and misinformation that have been thoroughly refuted here over 4 years ago, yet all they do is repeat the same ad nauseum (a tool of propaganda). I've seen exactly the same modus operandi on other investing sites, which apparently bitcointalk has become in parts, and they will destroy this forum if they are allowed to run amok as they have been so far. They should have been banned long ago ... theymos and mods need to grow a backbone and realise what is happening, and soon. In the end, censorship by the government is always the solution. I knew it. Hmm...Censorship I think marcus is right... But It is not censorship the thread/forum needs but reasoned moderating, I like a joke as much as the next guy, but...... there is the obvious is obvious trolling, aggressive, insult hurling trolling, constant repetitive trolling. That has got little to do with freedom of speech, that is more like verbal abuse Buy a new mouse and click on ignore if the link doesn't work for you. Don't decide for me what is trolling or abusive. 1 exception, scammers who deliberately con you from bitcoins. You should put them in jail or shoot them, but that's another discussion. I do not believe I was trying to decide anything for you. You do, because you want moderation on this forum to remove the obvious trolling and words you don't like. Just expressing my opinion, hope that's cool.
Of course it's cool, that's what it's all about, freedom of speech. If you don't like it, there is a feature called 'ignore button', use it. I rather have an indicator of how many people are on somebodys ignore list. Then I know who not to give too much attention to... I get what you are saying, all up for freedom of speech.. But trolling is not communication imo.. It is something else. |

When you say rickrolled are you referring to the "lunar launch"? tbh I took that with a pinch of salt, they played on the moon meme, and the lunar name, it was cute but it never meant anything... Surely no one thought that meant anything other than the opening of the exchange? (which I do wonder if they rushed because of Gemini)
They had this hidden in the source code of the lunar launch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BROWqjuTM0gSorry to be thick here.... but.. so what? I am trying to understand what is it exactly that you are accusing them of, and how did they fool you into buying Bitcoins you otherwise did not want ? And into losing 200k and how did you lose the 200k ? |

What did they do in your opinion?
I'm to tired to type it out in full with references. Probably best you build your own opinion on what just happened. In a nut shell Coinbase Rick Rolled everyone with news that was a flat out lie and generated tons of "buzz" (as Charlie Lee called it) that generated Coinbase huge profits at the expense of fooled customers/bitcoiners alike. 1% and actually buying Bitcoins after the market crashed via customers and huge $50+ dollar swings for the rest of the world. (NYSE tweeted last week they planned on helping Coinbase make the Bitcoin prices more transparent... and Coinbase took that shit to the bank.) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=938514.0I already have an opinion, I was curious as to what your opinion is. When you say rickrolled are you referring to the "lunar launch"? tbh I took that with a pinch of salt, they played on the moon meme, and the lunar name, it was cute but it never meant anything... Surely no one thought that meant anything other than the opening of the exchange? (which I do wonder if they rushed because of Gemini) Did they specifically say, themselves anywhere that they were licensed in California or NY? Or did they say they were were operating in NY and California? Or is it the insurance angle? Eitherway I do not get how this caused anyone to immediately rush to the exchange and buy any more or less btc than they wanted in the first place. Also how exactly did you lose 200k if you do not mind me asking? I did not quite get that part? |

Not sure how or why more of the Bitcoin community isn't pissed about what Coinbase did. To me it is so obvious.... I plan on working with any law firm looking to take action against Coinbase. What did they do in your opinion? |

Or advertising for the lawyers... |

That has got little to do with freedom of speech, that is more like verbal abuse Honestly newbies are important and their input is important, however in the past if a child disrespected another person there would be consequences, usually resulted in their removal. Totally. Come, communicate, contribute, give your thoughts , analysis.. Agree, disagree, argue, counter argue. Even have a laugh, or a ot chat, post a meme or two. Just try not to be a total c unit about it all. Also, say your thing, no need to repeat it twenty times a day, and no need for an army of 12 sockmuppets. It seems the only goal they have is disruption to discourse, because no one really takes them seriously so it is not an effective dis-information campaign. |

Sure. Keep telling yourself that everything is looking great and this is anything else than a useless pump and dump coin being raped by traders.
Cannot be raped if we never sell for a loss. If Bitcoin fails than we lose everything but we are willing to take that risk in completing this experiment, otherwise being a dis-inflationary currency we will eventually see a reversal in 2016 at the latest. By 2016 nobody is using this useless slow coin anymore. Tons of alt coins out there are better than Bitcoin. And seeing how Bitcoin adoption is greatly slowing down every day there will be no reason to use it anymore by the end 2015. But go ahead and keep buying thinking we will go the moon. I'll be here to enjoy the show. If adoption is greatly slowing down every day, why did NYSE, BBVA, and DoCoMo throw away $75 million at a Bitcoin based company in Coinbase? Seems counter-intuitive for such prominent investors. Because they don't give a shit about Bitcoin. They invested in a company. If another coin takes over Coinbase will simply switch to that one. If you would stop being so delusional and face the fact that the coins you bought at 800 will always be a loss then you can start thinking clear again and look less like an idiot. Apart from no one will touch a crypto if BTC dies at this stage... and to think that they will is delusional. (I do not deny that a new coin could rise up, but the new coin would have to exist first and would have to be superior, and gain a following and a network, and would have to come someway first, whilst Bitcoin was still around, for it to rise up and surpass it, and be taken on by coinbase etc, otherwise any credibility in a new cryptocurrency, would be utterly shattered by Bitcoin going to zero at this stage) |

What have Singapore got to do with us?
Global currency wars, global economics. Exactly. Sooner than later everyone is cutting their shorts on USD QE. First one was Japan, then Switzerland, then the EU. Now Singapore. Do you see a pattern there, or am I the only one dreaming here? At some point within the next year (approx) I expect to see the Yuan peg removed. |
