Coinbase are Brain-Damaged

Journal by MichaelDavidCrawford

I sold all my Etherium with the ~$3000 proceeds going to my USD wallet. The Dashboard page has the correct amounts.

But the Buy/Sell and Accounts pages incorrectly claim that my USD wallet only has $0.10. So I can't buy the Litecoin that I intended to buy. It has been this way for over an hour.

I logged a support ticket but they're so busy it's likely to be a week until they respond.

I expect just about any other exchange would work better. This because Coinbase is the #1 iOS app. As with Linux and Red Hat back during the dot-com boom, I expect many people think Coinbase is the only place you can get bitcoin.

    MDC, you know, coins do not have brains, and so cannot be damaged. I think "fraud" is the word you are looking for. Can you imagine: "I have a math equation, I will sell it to you for X thousand dollars". Where is the damaged brain in this scenario?
