I'm now officially fed up with CoinBase. They rapidly accept my money when Bitcoin price is rising and I purchase, but if BTC has peaked and I need to sell quickly, the app conveniently becomes busy, and cannot process my request to sell.

They're basically forcing me to take losses.

Can anyone recommend a TRUSTED app with an exchange that is quick to process all requests that is also easy to use? I would prefer one in the USA. And one that works on the iPhone.

Thanks.

I have been using coinbase for past few months and i have not experienced any issues lately. However, due to my location, the feature of exchanging bitcoin is not available. Instead i use localbitcoins which is far very much convinient. You can give a try to localbitcoins and see if you can exchange easily.

Same i feel with coinbase. I do not find any reason to leave coinbase. They are good and currently only online wallet which offers zero transaction fee. Xapo has started charging minimal tx fee, so we are left with coinbase only if we want to enjoy zero tx fee.
the challenges is when the exchange is busy due to increase in price, which is thought to be undermine by the app to prevent trade at this time but not when the price is lower/less busier. This not good for an exchange and have been reading this often lately.
