I was. Most Bitcoin OGs have a lot of animosity towards Coinbase. Some of it is the "eternal September"[0] effect that Coinbase had bringing a lot of new people who didn't embrace Bitcoin's values and just wanted to gamble on crypto. But some of it is based on Coinbase's actions against Bitcoin over the years. They've promoted and helped pump up a lot of s*t coins, including forks of Bitcoin. And they've done little to support or further the values Bitcoin was built on or core development. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September
