Hahaha! I sill don't understand what you are trying to do here, Bay.
I just want people to know who used Coinbase on Sunday that they got fucked. The fucked ness doesn't end there either. It effects all Bitcoiners. Bitcoin holders are so blinded by the fact they want their Bitcoin stash to go up that are going to miss that they just got fucked by a major USA Bitcoin Company if no one voices up. Getting scammed often comes with butthurt, but I could give a fuck less about $220,000 frankly over not getting flim flammed for even $1. It's still business as usual other wise via selling silver and such for BTC on my end. Honey Badgers don't give no fucks about suits! I think he is hoping that with enough yelling he can create some sort of buzz and somehow sue CoinBase for his bad investment then hopefully get a settlement. Completely ignoring the whole "buy on rumor, sell on news" aspect of trading. It is usually the case to sell on the news because it is not as exciting as the rumors make it out to be (in this case, though CoinBase is licensed and regulated as the rumors presented, it is only regulated in 23 states). They can shove a settlement up their own ass unless that bitch is beautiful. I want to see them come out from hiding in their secret office and in front of a judge.

Sorry 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 ?
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?

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. Edit: On the plus side I guess I don't have to worry about taxes this year atm

"To the moon"?

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 can understand the fact that you are trying to spread awareness, but it also looks like you don't want to admit that this "Lunar Coinbase" was the shittiest trade you have ever made in your life. I wonder if we would have seen the same frustration if you were on the profit side and Coinbase situation was still the same.

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?

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. Yes, but who decides what is trolling? It is a personal choice imho. Let me make my own choice, you can do yours. So, in short, the ignore button is enough.

Good morning gentlemen! Forgive me if i'm intruding, but the topic of your learned debate fascinates me! Are we discussing Coinbase, the company whose sole raison d'etre is shorting BTC with investor's money? The recent $75 million short, in particular? Were these malefactors not yet brought to justice?

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.

The talking-his-book part-time troll is fighting for free speech. Gave me a good laugh.
