Bitcoin's problems can definitely be fixed. I trust the developers to do them.
uh, mmmm, it's a trustless system. When the community relies on trust, it is de facto proof of network failure. You lose. |

I have used coinbase recently with no problems whatsoever. This thread seems like FUD. Where's the proof?
Same thing they said about Gox. You'll have your proof the day after all the money will be gone. But by then, all the money will be gone. Get it? |

I predict that Satoshi will forever be known as a brilliant person who created a most remarkable new technology. And Maxwell will become equally famous (infamous) for having ruined that what Satoshi created simply by being a remarkable uncooperative asshole who would not listen to anyone, thus driving away all talent, and destroying the community and the network.

I hope not as this would be really bad news for bitcoin security in general especially in the USA.
Bitcoin is dead. |

How is this even legal? A company can just decide to hold my money for no reason at all? Or lie about it taking 10 business days? Do I have any recourse here?
Recourse? Are you kidding? There is a very good chance that money is gone forever. Coinbase is pulling a Mt Gox these days. More and more money is getting stuck in the cracks. They have no more money to pay employees and some are now working for 'free'. I think it is soon over for them. If you can, get your money out now. When this started happening at MtGox people didn't listen and lost everything. Don't let that happen to you. |

Stop trying to spread your FUD around without any tangible proof. You said that based on the current report, Coinbase is close to bankruptcy. But what report are you talking about? A person above me has already asked you that question and you simply ignored that completely and come out and posted a random link to the insurance policy of Coinbase.
...
I Googled for reports that Coinbase ... By the time websites publish details and Google indexes those sites - it is too late. The door will be closed on that day. I'll post here again in two or three weeks when all you guys are crying about not being able to get your money out. Hahahaha. |
|
|
|
Is there any source for this?
Yeah, its the same source as they had for emp-ty Gox. By the time it makes it to the big headlines, it is too late. People 'were talking' about Gox for weeks before the thick people believed it to be true. Mark Karpeles assured everyone that things were fine and that there was a long road ahead. lol. |

What reports? Coinbase has a lot of venture capital behind them - They raised $75 million in 2015.
Can you say 'burn rate'? $75M is nothing the way these guys were operating a year or two ago. They've been spending money out their ass with a huge staff of people doing a bunch of bullshit. The hype will really get to you. I believe the reports. Get your money out of Coinbase now - don't wait around until another Gox thing happens. If you do, it is your own damn fault and nobody around here is going to listen to your fucking crying. I`m happy that i deleted my coinbase account and got all my bits.  Coinbase was a major player in the bitcoin market. Will this affect the bitcoin price? It shouldn't affect the price when they shut down because there are many other exchanges. Although, we have to wait to see. Coinbase was pretty big in the US |

This is the second thread I have read this morning saying Coinbase is in trouble without posting anything to suggest this, if there were some tangible evidence you should post it with the opening statement otherwise this thread is just speculation.
Their rebranding could be just to keep up with the developing crypto world and not be left behind, either way without seeing anything to suggest otherwise I think Coinbase is good for now.
Yeah, but you can keep thinking that with your money out of their system. Get your money out now or get Goxxed. Those are facts. You don't need proof of the story to understand that you can't lose money if you don't leave it in their system. |

What is up with Coinbase I must have missed something? I know they are rebranding to GDAX and will be adding ETH and LTC but I haven't heard anything else.
As Cyaren said any exchange has the potential to scam but Coinbase is so involved with merchants and is a real presence here, it would really surprise me if they did end up scamming.
Although stranger things have happened.
Apparently they spent all their money and have none left. Too much hype in the early days and no profits miles down the road. adios coinbase. |

If Coinbase is in trouble, what about Shift? Will they die too? Does Shift have relationships with other exchanges or are they 'all in' with Coinbase? I am going out tonight to have a nice steak dinner on my Shift card that might not work tomorrow.

Please stop spreading lies. Coinbase is very healthy and we have a long runway.
Charlie Lee
Director of Engineering @ Coinbase
Directors always deny it vigorously up until the big announcement in the press. They have to. Otherwise, there would be a run on the bank. Only the fools are left hanging around. Being so quick to deny it by a senior staffer makes me believe this is real. |

The real Satoshi Nakamoto ...is dead. It was Klieman. |

Dirty filthy scammer. Suicide is calling. |

The 'outgrate' is that metal screen which prevents shit from flowing from the pipe into the soup. The 'ingrate' is like an outgrate but it prevents shit from flowing into the pipe.
Did you fail your engineering A level?
YAWWWN this guy is so lame Shitty personality, shitty humor. Looks like some piece of shit derelict that spent the first 20 years of his wretched life being tortured for having such an obscene and distastefully shaped cranium. The big man upstairs definitely dropped the ball when he drew up the blueprint for you. Mongrel of a person. Your DNA is so visibly inferior yet here you are attempting to belittle craig white who shits all over your existence Eventually you will be forced to reckon with the fact that you're nothing except from an overweight slob of a man, who has grown mammary glands due to lack of testosterone. You create this filth for your little minions to gather round like bitches at a book club. So lame apparently, we've got yet another cunt in the house. |

People really are retards, especially the idiot above. Craig creates bitcoin and this is the response? 90% of you guys are mentally retarded anyway so, no surprise. Bunch of ingrates
I give! What's an ingrate? Anybody? The 'outgrate' is that metal screen which prevents shit from flowing from the pipe into the soup. The 'ingrate' is like an outgrate but it prevents shit from flowing into the pipe. Apparently, I am one of these. Did you fail your engineering A level? People really are retards, especially the idiot above. Craig creates bitcoin and this is the response?
Are you serious? You still believe this? I think the cat is well out of the bag at this point. Craig didn't invent anything other than a scam sufficient to fool Gavin and Jon. I must admit, I would not have guessed guys at that level could be fooled by signature chicanery, but somehow Craig was clever enough to pull that off. However, one has to be thick as a brick to still believe. The irony is that now you call people 'idiots'. |

Well, now that the entire Craig Wright / Satoshi thing has blown over, I just want to point out that one guy summed it all up very nicely in the early stages: Craig Wright is a 'bit of a cunt'. After it all played out - that guy sure had it correct.
From here, I'd say many more people will think of him as 'a bit of a cunt' than think of him as Satoshi.

Satoshi or not.... he seems like a bit of a cunt doesn't he?
Funny how everyone wanted Satoshi to be some great noble guy and it turns out he's a right fucking Australian plonker - and a fucking cunt at the same time. That is the funny bit. |

Satoshi is dead?
not very unlikely. hal finney passed away unfortunetly. [/quote] Finney - dead; Kleiman - dead; Satoshi - dead; How did all the inventors of bitcoin get dead already? |

i think you are overthinking the situation. this is more like a shitty photographer's fault than Coindest releasing this photo with the purpose of removing the woman out of the photo, and it doesn't look like a photoshopped picture either.
No matter how shitty the photographer is, the editor still has eyes and can see the woman is cut out. |
