This is ridiculous. I’ve read hundreds of stories about people who have had issues with Coinbase. I’m sure they’re the tip of the iceberg and there are actually thousands or even hundreds of thousands having issues.
But Coinbase has many tens of millions of users, so it’s still probably a small fraction. And by your own admission, you have no idea, so stating that it’s “the standard experience” is just more anti-cryptocurrency FUD like your article series.
EDIT: it’s actually 13 million as of Dec 1. The point stands: 100,000 users having issues is still less than 1%.
- sowbug 9y agoForums are always full of people who complain. These days, the rare person who bothers to say their experience was fine is immediately branded an astroturfer or shill. I hate those kinds of people. Obviously they're funded by the Koch brothers. Anyone who disagrees with me is a neonazi. Also this is all a Ponzi scheme.
- davidgerard 9y agoLiterally any bank having 100,000 fucked-over customers would consider it - or be made to consider it - an issue, and any reasonable person would consider it a matter of tremendous concern. Would you consider it a matter of no concern if it was your bank, rather than something bitcoin-related?
