You don't own Bitcoin if you don't control the keys. If you read the Coinbase ToS, > Coinbase securely stores all Digital Currency private keys in our control in a combination of online and offline storage. And if you read the

This analogy doesn't work because people could've transferred their Bitcoin to a personal wallet while the same can't be said of stocks.

Doesn't Coinbase reduce the amount of customer confusion by offering fewer cryptocurrencies to purchase? It perhaps makes sense from a business standpoint: why support a new coin from day 1 instead of waiting for the ecosystem to matur

I don't think the majority of people who own Bitcoin use Coinbase, maybe those who have identification but there's other exchanges like Gemini and Kraken. And this isn't included outside the U.S. or unregulated exchanges eith

Nope, nobody's forcing people to use Coinbase. If they want their BCC, they should just withdraw into their own wallets. And why should Coinbase dedicate effort to support a new untested altcoin?

I never said line of credit. I was making the point that cryptocurrencies offer another means of payment and medium of exchange that is not as restrictive as a credit card. Here’s two articles that show they actually help the underbanked: [

Well how did you get a credit card? Wasn't it by going to a financial institution and submitting some type of identification? You understand not everyone has that privilege right? Not everybody has access, the capital, or the identific

Snapchat is like Instagram in the sense that it helps keep you updated on what's going on in your social circle, except it's on a daily basis with an extra dose of "comical" photo filters. It's more of a photo shari
