  @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.

  @ScottDa81001051 Hey @ScottDa81001051; afraid it's pretty tough nowadays. Used to use GDAX/CB Pro, but it's impossible nowadays with the maker fees + tighter spreads. Looked at @BitMEX for their negative maker fees, but it was too competitive.

  This is not the 1st time that crypto exchanges have witnessed flash crashes and spikes which have previously caused anger and refund requests from affected customers. For instance, a flash crash on GDAX in Aug 2017 saw Ether prices drop to as low as $0.1 due to a customer error

  Caution,,,,,,,#gdax and #CEXIOPROLTD highlights concerns about withdrawal visibility, with some users finding transaction records difficult to follow. 📩 If you need help, contact privately for support.

  @bitcoinmom Yup coinbase count down to announce gdax, later to become coinbase pro. The animation was as disappointing as their bitcoin stack.

  @MeatTC_ But AOL actually provided quality service for its users. $COIN has perpetually crashed during volatility even since the GDAX days.

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

  @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!

  @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.
