I got logged out of gdax and now cant log back in due to a time out. coinbase.com is timing out.
Anyone else or is it just me? This is really bad timing for me
Coinbase is not down and its working perfectly fine. I think in future you can use
http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ to check in the future if the site is down only for you or not. Sometime clearly the cache and restarting the PC work if the issue is at your own end.
I think the site down when OP post it . But it's now working fine, I also have a friend asking same problem a week ago but after an hour it's already back to normal there is nothing to worried now.
just, don't keep any important amount of money in an exchange or any web wallet you are asking for trouble, even if you don't like the idea of having a hardware wallet or a paper wallet your desktop wallet can be made secure enough besides those exchanges are a big target so your coins will always be at risk of being stolen by hackers or a dishonest employee.
I also agree do not put any important amount of money in online wallet use a wallet that you have a private key so you will have the full control of your wallet. There is high risk using Online wallet not safe at all.
