Hello,
I am new in coinbase, just now I made a transfer from coinbase address to my personal wallet address. All I have in coinbase is 0.03908 BTC, and I found that I can send this full amount out of coinbase, and I got full amount of 0.03908 BTC to my personal wallet address. But I checked the transaction on blockchain and found the fee is 0.0009 BTC(Fee: 0.0009 BTC - Size: 1837 bytes). I am confused, did coinbase pay this fee for my transfer?

Yes. I think Coinbase pay for the fee. However, I do notice sometimes they do round down the send amount which just costs you >100 Satoshis.

Didn't made too much transactions via coinbase because i am using mainly blockchain.info but i noticed this too in my last transaction. I sent my whole balance from coinbase to blockchain.info wallet (fees included) without paying any fees. I asked this question once about xapo & coinbase inside a topic, i got only a confirmation about xapo. If someone can confirm it, i will manage to use more coinbase.

I see that they are trying really hard to increase its customer base and increase Bitcoin adoption. They are giving nice affiliate bonuses, they are paying also transaction fees. I never liked them because of the accusations that they work closely with the government and that they close accounts for no reason, etc, but I salute their dedication by doing these little things.

They are my go to online wallet for micro transactions. Exactly because of the zero fee.
Still won't put significant amounts through it.

- snip - did coinbase pay this fee for my transfer?
Yes. Under most common conditions coinbase will pay the transaction fee for you. https://support.coinbase.com/customer/en/portal/articles/815435-does-coinbase-pay-bitcoin-miner-fees-Coinbase pays the miner fees (typically 0.0001 BTC) on external transactions in order to ensure these transactions propagate throughout the bitcoin network quickly. For very small transaction amounts you may be prompted to pay the transaction / miner fee.

I noticed this also the couple of times I have used them, it is a bonus and a plus for using Coinbase.

I am a bit paranoid about using coinbase due to past accusations. The fee really isn't that big of a deal to me.

I guess it comes with the territory when they are in control of your private keys for them to pay for fees most of the time. Between Coinbase accounts it's essentially all off-chain transactions too.

Totally agree with this. I have them as my main wallet (I only have about 1 BTC), and it works great for selling and having the money in your bank account easily. Also for buying. Yes, perhaps privacy is not high, but I don't mind that much.

There were tones of pages on this forum where the people were screaming that BTC offers full privacy and that it offers protection against GOVs, bad people, illuminaty and other stories . Now, all the exchangers are looking for regulations, licences which means the END of the privacy.What is very odd? Nobody is saying nothing. It's OK like that as long you make some cash , right? In end, it only matters the cash but let's not be hypocrites and to admit it.

Yes, many online services pay fees for us. Example Xapo, freebitco.on, moonbit and faucetbox.com This is possible for them when they process the transactions in batch. Because transaction fees are for the size of transaction not for number of transaction. I do not know about coinbase. But Xapo processes our sending transactions in batch.

All I have in coinbase is 0.03908 BTC, and I found that I can send this full amount out of coinbase, and I got full amount of 0.03908 BTC to my personal wallet address.

Fee: 0.0009 BTC, why the fee is so high?

Fee: 0.0009 BTC, why the fee is so high? If i'm correct, the transaction is larger than 1 kb so it requires a higher fee. Next, the service itself may post a higher fee to make sure the customer gets paid fast. Personally, I don't mind paying 2 cents for my transactions myself. 0.0009 on the other hand is quite nice of them to cover

Yes that is true. Coinbase pays the transfer fee and I prefer to use coinbase for this reason. With small amounts it is really useful to transfer satoshis. But you have to write the exact satıshi which you have got in your wallet. Otherwise you will pay transfer fee.

I think so. Only made two transactions via their wallet and I also managed to send it all up to the last satoshi. It's not that much after all, though there are some cases in which you cannot send the full balance in your wallet to another and there are some deductions to it (I'm not sure what they are for).

The banks are asking me the same papers like Gemini, Coinbase are asking. I can buy anything with credit cards in a blink of eye...without waiting 15 minutes for endless BTC confirmations. Also, the banks are offering much more security than any "private" wallet....

(btw didn't revealed my identity when I joined coinbase) But as I said before, not everyone is caring so much about his identity.
