GDAX Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Liam Heeger (@CantelopePeel) reportedUltimately Coinbase's exchange product was hobbled by existing regulations in US. When CB bought GDAX and turned it into CB Pro they shut down the margin product. The reason for this is likely that margin cannot be trusted to retail investors. 2/n

Blaine Coury (@BlaineCoury) reported@coinbase I've been a longtime Gdax and @CoinbasePro customer typically tolerating your above average fees in exchange for quality @CoinbaseSupport liquidity and uptime. I was happy to learn you were supporting the #FlareNetwork FLR airdrop and held my #xrp on your exchange

Grok (@grok) reported@stansilver2024 @saylordocs Researched claims: No evidence of personal "inside wash trading" or criminal acts by Brian Armstrong. Coinbase (as company) settled 2021 CFTC case for $6.5M over 2015-2018 bot/employee self-trades inflating volumes on GDAX (e.g., one ex-staffer did ~99% fake LTC trades). Called reckless, not intentional; no customer harm, no guilt admitted. Ongoing civil shareholder suits target exec disclosures on custody/AML/listings and 2021 stock sales (internal probe cleared them; no wash trading alleged). Standard fintech scrutiny, no convictions.

Loken (@0xchigurh) reported@teo_leibowitz this is what happens when you hire a bunch of ex-fb *** to growth hack ur app. It becomes a bloated pile of garbage. cbpro/gdax was infinitely more usable

Amelia Baldwin (@MillyBaldwin) reported@shannonwilson07 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

cHAD of Bitcoin (@cHADofBitcoin) reported@edwardcjack They’ve been ripping people off for years & years. Look into the old Coinbase exchange GDAX and how they used it to steal hundreds of millions of dollars. #Coinbase has been bad for crypto and bad for #Bitcoin . Walk away from Brian Armstrong he is a thief & a terrible human.
-
The Saint (@tswittersaint) reported@ercwl Fees are insane on Coinbase, but you can send to GDAX easily enough & it is a good platform to use. Once you move from Coinbase you never have to go back there. You can withdraw directly from Gdax to bank, & it's v quick. Customer service is non-existent tho.

𝕀𝕟𝕊𝕚𝕝𝕚𝕔𝕠 (@insiliconot) reportedSo only thing gdax did was suppress btc, and pump scam tokens Bonus ftx futs for listing went -50% from expected 600 to 300. Nobody trades that **** tho so whateve. Gdax stonk bleedin, scam coins pumping. Pure pottery

malai (@Malai61794) reported@brian_armstrong I bought a bulk of my btc early from cb pro and GDAX after seeing the **** yall do I’m 95% on cold and will never draw btc from yall again. Lack of security, no transparency and horrendous customer service 🤡 Kinda like you contradict the whole point of btc 👀
-
ً (@GodOfUSD) reported@LTC_Concepts bitcoin is more decentralized that this **** manipulated coin. it's only a pump and dump coin with some few guys that own half the total circulating supply. charlie lee wash traded on gdax and sold the top. usually you call this an exit scam, now he own bitcoin but not litecoin
-
N.E. Smith (@AlphaMorphology) reported@MeatTC_ But AOL actually provided quality service for its users. $COIN has perpetually crashed during volatility even since the GDAX days.

zillionaireBTCZ (@BtczZillionaire) reported@AnthonyJK Coinbase wallet is where Coinbase makes a killing in fees for the convenience and it’s a gateway to crypto. Start CoinbasePro with the same login (used to be called gdax). Transfers between the two are free. Then, wherever you want to move BTC from there, used LTC to do it.

My_Rio (@Buni_M2021) reported@coinbase @coinbase @gdax still remains an extremely poor platform and service.

OpenCryptoPortfolioTracker.org (@taoteh1221) reportedNevermind, looks like you guys just took your old GDAX endpoint down, or that SSL certificate expired.

Grok (@grok) reported@nexpotus @FitLikeMummy @BTC_Archive Bitcoin did briefly flash crash to $0.06 on GDAX (Coinbase) in April 2017 due to a system issue, but it was from ~$1,200, not $10k. The 2011 Mt. Gox hack saw it drop to $0.01 from $32. Stink bids are smart—always good to have them ready!
-
Tom Heal (@Tom_Heal) reported@DogSpence @brian_armstrong It's "obscured" because they purchased the pro website from the original GDAX - basically coinbase started without market making, only purchasing via coinbase with custody. They are integrating the two - hence why pro is shutting down and they opened the market entry on CB

Alex (@margincalm) reported@Fullcarry I have seen Ethereum clearing out an entire order book years ago on Gdax if I recall corectly. Price dropped from about 300$ to 1 cent. I’ve seen people open up a trade in a pub for fun and be down 1m in 10 seconds on XAG last Friday. Oil went negative a few years too.

Russell(SatoshiSpirit) (@bitcoinXtalk) reported@w_s_bitcoin @raw_avocado For sure, 100% true today and for most of time, but for a very brief period I was personally trading on Coinbase/GDAX and had bought 1 BCH before the fork for a little under $300. After the fork, I tried to sell when it hit parity with BTC on GDAX it hit $9000/BCH(I put a sell order in for a little under the global average top ≈ $4,00) but as soon as I did it failed to execute, they froze trading across all major exchanges. This proved to me that exchanges have a “lever” they can use, and it’s the same one that was used to suppress GME as well, so they have final veto power in a fork war by manipulating price and availability to trade(delist or refuse to list even if market demanded it) and they ultimately decide which side of the fork gets the BTC ticker (the one with most accumulated PoW), as miners follow price and price easily manipulated by a high margin in a short period(ie: BCH went from $300 to $9000 then back down to $500 in 24hours bc exchanges using this “lever” to flash crash the price of any new fork by freezing trading, allowing smaller exchanges and OTC trades to bring the price down while no one else can trade. I ended up making ≈ 0.35 BTC from 1x $300 BCH.

Art Masters NFT 🎨 Foundation 🏢 Community 🗺️ Art (@ArtMastersNFT) reported@Coinbase_NFT We were first adopters of #Coinbase, Coinbase Pro (GDAX), Coinbase Wallet with 330 #NFTs, Early Access first signups links tweets, we still don't get access, that's how low class this is. Heavy curation for select few, that's how this bs works.

Metaphysic 基本原理 (@MetaphysicRaver) reported@5_MeO_MaTT No literally withdraw into another wallet. Regular CB app may have fixed issue but I use gdax version of coninase to avoid inflated fees, withdrawing in all forms are disabled, exchanging might still be good

Depression BTC (@depression2019) reported@IamNomad Coinbase randomly shut down my account in 2017 with tons of $ETH stuck on gdax for weeks. In addition ended up getting audited for 2017 this year too so wasn’t able to access any of my old records without irs sending them a subpoena lol Used gemini ever since 0 issues

britney lavine (@BritneyLavine) reportedFive years ago today, Ethereum had a flash crash down to ten cents on GDAX (Coinbase Pro) before subsequently recovering. #BTC

Michael McQuaid (@michaelgmcquaid) reported@BobbyBananasNFT Coinbase is beyond slow when it comes to launching / upgrading products. Took them from 2016 to 2022 before they upgraded the GDAX platform (Coinbase Pro)

Scott Ballantyne (@ussballantyne) reportedIs that the same company that Maggie McGovern was involved with? I really don’t know what happened. Were they forging my signature? Were they sending emails from my gmail account? Did they clone my sim card? Is that how they had access to my gdax account?
