In case we didn't already know it, here's more proof that retards use coinbase.

Coinbase says it prevented over 1,000 customers from sending $280,000 worth of bitcoin to Twitter hackers

IIRC the twitter morons only got about 60k from everywhere else.

Talk about inept scammers.

For some reason some WO members use conbase as well so yeah...

yup, me.

so ill do a quick explanation:

yes they bought that analytics team that sold services to dictator countries for spying (or whatever it was .. more coffee will bring additions brains cells into play) - someone will correct me - and YES that one pissed me off huge. almost left. but they "fired" the big shots in it iirc

yes they will track the shit out of your tx

yes in bed with IRS

yes can seize all if they feel like it

yes they will lock if you send to privacy wallet or casino (<< do they still do that? they did)

however for me, who mined my coins, and have only bought (a very little) but sold (mostly) my own coins there for 6 or 7 years, it has not had one issue. at all. and ive cashed out corn amounts that raise flags.

for me, yes its regulated to fuck and worse. but i dont use it as a wallet. its soley an on and off ramp.

yes i am prepared to lose whats there at any time. others who hold there should be too.

but it works for me, and for noob holders until they send to hardware/airgapped/paper/whatever



I get all that, but this is not an argument of exchange vs. no exchange, i'm just saying that even when you decide to use exchange, you do have other options. Why not use exchange (with all the same issues/risks as above) but doesn't have a history of trying to fuck BTC any chance they get? Kraken/Gemini have all the same issues but don't seem to actively go out of their to screw with BTC
