Exactly, I don't know if this so called Twitter hashtag will bring some effect.

It did have an effect to coinbase, on this blog post it was mentioned that coinbase fired some of their neutrino employees.

It is really insane that anyone would be using Coinbase in 2019. There's no point.

The thing is, I'm pretty sure we aren't the target audience of Coinbase. They're targetting those people who just saw a Coinbase advertisement then simply buy bitcoins through the advertised link; basically the people who aren't fond of doing research.

This is actually accurate, a year ago when I asked my friend to repay me in bitcoins he was using coinbase. I could've told him to use a different exchange but the transaction is already done and afaik that's the last time he used a bitcoin exchange.

I dont have any idea about this topics but as far see the news, coinbase has been one of the trusted bitcoin exchange in to other major altcoins they are working worldwide even partnered with banks and major credit cards. If coinbase will shutdown surely it can affect bitcoins price bigtime.

They are a big exchange but them shutting down won't affect the price in a big way. They're top 40 in the exchange rankings but their combined bitcoin trading volume is 0.41%.
