RE: Coinbase is down. An example of market control & "holiday"?
I have read on reddit/4chan/steemit that many people notice coinbase to be 'in maintenance' during times the market drops. Might be safer to switch to a different exchange, like Kraken, who doesn't pull off these tricks constantly.
Thank you for sharing Tim. It honestly is no different than banks taking a "holiday" when people rush to transfer their money out. I will be looking to move away today. Not happy at all.
In addition, don't forget they actually can just pull the plug on their entire company and walk away... The founder recently left to join the Litecoin team. I just don't trust coinbase anymore, they should be trusteable especially during the 'harder' times, and there are enough other exchanges anyway.
