Wow that's super shady...
I've been using Coinbase to buy a little bit of BTC because it was so easy and the fees were low.
But idk how I feel about supporting a company that does something like this.
I know the ETH fork is causing issues for everyone, but its a on the company to take the loss if something happens, not pass the loss onto your customers.
That is the price of doing business. The image of your brand in the long run should be worth more than the few dollars you would lose IMO.
From reading all this it doesn't seem they know what the hell they are doing or how to run a proper exchange. WTF is all this?!
Clearly they don't. They were very brazen about their approach to ETH's hard fork, and Brian/Fred are incredibly brazen about their approach towards a hard fork in BTC.
Don't have a screenshot, but Charlie Lee did state in the Core slack that they had only 4 days to prepare for this fork, ETH devs told them to ignore the ETC fork, and they made a bad decision not to protect the ETC. At least they are accepting some blame.
But now will they still steal everyone's ETC that was sent to them post-fork?
