Yeah I will keep my coinbase account open as I need it for tax records.
It is frustrating as I have been with them for ten years and simply do not understand what else they need from me.

I do not buy and sell 1,000,000 usd in coins in a year.
My buys ,sells deposits last year were far under the income I have.

My passport
my real drivers card are good.
My bank documents are in order.

It’s simple  censorship and frankly I resent the attack on my ladder up sells and ladder down buys.
As it financially hurts my accumulation and investment strategies.
I may consider a class action against them if I can find others like me they do this to.

Instead of a class action, open up some other accounts.  There is Gemini, Binance US, Bitstamp, Kraken, and likely quite a few others that US citizens/residence can open up.

You should have more than one option, anyhow.  Sure, maybe you can keep working on them to get access back, but there are various other options that you should have at least a few different ways in and out of bitcoin... and some of them will change from time to time.  

Over the years, I have had troubles with several exchanges, including but surely not limited to Coinbase.  I have tended to try to maintain at least a 2-3 available ways to get in and out of dollars through exchanges, but yeah, it can be irritating, and even when bitcoin goes up to $1million per coin or whatever, we still run the risk of no longer being able to get in and out of bitcoin through various exchanges, so hopefully some other options come about during the years, otherwise, yeah, maybe we are all fucked, and we can ONLY convert into an ETF...or maybe figure out ways to interact directly with our neighbors, if that might even be possible in modern times, if we are not afraid to get to know our neighbors and our local merchants.

I will agree that Trump seems to be serving as an accelerator, yet I have my doubts if it is a "needed" accelerator.

I dont need an accelerator well if you need one good luck. I believe growth should be done slow and steady

It seems to me that each of us should be trying to think about (and act upon) the things that we can control rather than things that we cannot control, and so whether or not various macro happenings accelerate the dollars demise (what we were talking about in the earlier posts) or bitcoin's growth (what might be related to the dollar's demise and what you were talking about), these do not seem to be so much directly within the abilities of normies to control (whether you consider yourself to be a normie or perhaps you consider yourself to be a person with special access?), even though it seems to me that each of us should be attempting to prepare our best (financially and psychologically) for a variety of scenarios that could end up playing out, even some of the scenarios that could end up playing out might end up being extreme scenarios.

Btc slow steady growth investment, not.

That is another good point. If anything bitcoin is not slow and steady or stable, so guys anticipating that bitcoin is slow and/or steady and/or stable and/or that they are hoping for bitcoin to serve such purposes, then they are likely living in a fantasylandia with unrealistic expectations.. They may well need to find some other investment if they want to achieve slow and steady, and in these times, who knows what might be slow and steady, even the dollar's ongoing demise might not end up playing out as slow and steady.

Spiking...did Saylor (or someone even bigger ) buy a massive amount?
It happened without any change to stock market futures-something bitcoin specific?

You must be new here.

Protip:  That's how bitcoin rolls.






 Last time I checked...

i have kraken.

and binance us

and paypal

mmm US defaults on the bonds and trump coins takes over.

my 10 coins go to 10 million worthless dollars.

oh coinbase finally shut my account other than withdrawals. they say I failed to give proper kyc.

So that is the end of them for me as I simply am not giving them more info than.

passport
real id
bank accounts that show over 95,000 a year in direct deposit income
from three us government agencies.

opm fed pension
ssa
vet pension .

I do not understand why they think they did not get enough info.

I think it is censorship of some kind.

I wonder if they will do this to me with my other  exchange accounts.

This makes me worry. And not a little.
If Orange Man is so pro-crypto as he says he is, there should be a few rules about (not) de-banking or de-exchanging good citizens without serious reasons. Heavy fines (and possible civil damages) are good at making them realize.

Leaves are turning green.
A believer once again.
Chopper flying soon.

Echoing the general outline or beauty of nature, green leaves signify the change of time and the possibility of a new life. Having gone through difficult times in the midst of nature, we have begun our journey towards better times, moving towards our goals.
A new possibility for self-confidence to arise. A place has been or is being awakened within the mind to once again establish faith and trust in oneself or in someone else.
The use of the helicopter could be a sign of a new arrival or change in the future. Or it could be a prediction of future dangers. It could be a kind of future warning message from the author.
The author's words hint at an important point. He explains the direction of a new possibility and that with time, the journey towards better times will begin after the bad days have passed and faith in oneself has returned. He also expresses through these words the reality of the path of life, such as happiness, sadness, hope, and fear, which go hand in hand.
Overall, the author has said it well.

Billionaire Ray Dalio: “I’m worried about something worse than a recession… we have something that is much more profound, we have a breaking down of the monetary order”
Bitcoin is the solution!!!

Individual - bitcoin is the solution.
Institutions - bitcoin is the solution.
Governments - bitcoin and a little bit of monetary system manipulation.

For sure individuals, governments and institutions are likely going to continue to attempt to manipulate bitcoin to their advantage, yet bitcoin was already designed to attempt to account for various already existing manipulation practices, and new ones are likely going to be attempted along the way, too.

Already happened, if not happening again.

Took a really nice break from Btc observation activities, and went and spent some time out there in the real world.

Glad to be back but at the same time going to try to keep my price checks to a minimum, feels way more healthy

Keep stacking!
