GDAX Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Countrybuns Duckersonian (@countrybuns_) reportedCoinbase only recently added 4H candles, they haven’t added weekly or monthly because that’s too difficult (even though all of the data pulls from TV). Brian scrapped GDAX, which was infinitely better than CB Pro, and paid hundreds of millions of $ to an engineer that built a NFT marketplace with six users. And only a few weeks ago their outsourced 3rd world employees sold user balances and kycs to highest bidders. Come to think of it this is the standard issue American tech company with the same privacy breach scandals, but they’ve made great commercials these past few weeks. So maybe the NBA sportsball enjoyers with $59 of doordash credits and $13 in their checking accounts will be our exit liquidity courtesy of Coinbase.

IamtheOne (@thecryptodrake) reported2017 had GDAX/CB Pro for zero fee crypto trading. 2021 has $WOO. Only Americans are barred and I don’t usually do large position sizing through VPN access. Tips @Pentosh1 @ImNotTheWolf

Grok (@grok) reported@stansilver2024 @saylordocs Researched claims: No evidence of personal "inside wash trading" or criminal acts by Brian Armstrong. Coinbase (as company) settled 2021 CFTC case for $6.5M over 2015-2018 bot/employee self-trades inflating volumes on GDAX (e.g., one ex-staffer did ~99% fake LTC trades). Called reckless, not intentional; no customer harm, no guilt admitted. Ongoing civil shareholder suits target exec disclosures on custody/AML/listings and 2021 stock sales (internal probe cleared them; no wash trading alleged). Standard fintech scrutiny, no convictions.

zoinky 👴🏻 (@coinjunky) reported@stephanlivera @bitcoinXtalk @jakeshieldsajj I sold bcash for ~7500$ that day, I believe there was a glitch between the coinbase broker site and GDAX (coinbase advanced now), it was about a 30 minute window where you could sell for ridiculous prices it seemed a bugged algo was buying.

Grok (@grok) reportedThe claim that DOGE is a "greater heist" than GDAX or Enron seems exaggerated. DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency, aims to cut government waste but faces criticism for overstated savings and legal issues. GDAX (now Coinbase Pro) had regulatory fines for market manipulation, while Enron's collapse involved massive fraud. DOGE's controversies center on governance, not direct financial theft, unlike Enron or GDAX. Both sides have valid points: supporters say DOGE fights bloat, critics argue it causes chaos. The "heist" label likely reflects frustration with DOGE's execution.

Art Masters NFT 🎨 Foundation 🏢 Community 🗺️ Art (@ArtMastersNFT) reported@Coinbase_NFT We were first adopters of #Coinbase, Coinbase Pro (GDAX), Coinbase Wallet with 330 #NFTs, Early Access first signups links tweets, we still don't get access, that's how low class this is. Heavy curation for select few, that's how this bs works.

JesziieRaawwrr' (@JesziieRaawwrr) reported@Bayou659 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

AQPulse (@AQPulse) reportedThis is not “cheap.” This is failed structure. $AMZN broke out, failed the reclaim, and is now back inside the long-term weekly channel with the GDAX cross rolling bearish. When price re-enters a broken channel instead of escaping it, downside extension toward the lower boundary becomes the more credible path.

Rai (@Rai_A_Mujahid) reported@brian_armstrong @brian_armstrong I miss the good ol GDAX days. If you truly believe in the long term, then fix your ludicrous fees! Otherwise your stock is going 6 ft under….

Grok (@grok) reported@nexpotus @FitLikeMummy @BTC_Archive Bitcoin did briefly flash crash to $0.06 on GDAX (Coinbase) in April 2017 due to a system issue, but it was from ~$1,200, not $10k. The 2011 Mt. Gox hack saw it drop to $0.01 from $32. Stink bids are smart—always good to have them ready!

fpv.eth (@jakeirish_) reported@CryptoskullK Also life hack if you can manage to get access to OG gdax status on Coinbase. You can buy / send assets immediately, no waiting period ever. And pretty much zero fees.

SaaS Capo (@SaaSCapo) reported@DeFifrog1 GDAX basically went down every time there was an opportunity for retail to make easy money lol
-
Loken (@0xchigurh) reported@teo_leibowitz this is what happens when you hire a bunch of ex-fb *** to growth hack ur app. It becomes a bloated pile of garbage. cbpro/gdax was infinitely more usable
-
BullTrapper (@bulltrapper0) reported@CryptoGodJohn If they never shut down gdax and perp trading (not sure if they could have with regs) whole trading landscape would be completely different.

greg alspach (@gregboy02) reported@Nyree344 @RobertOstler Hmmmm, I just sent him a message, I am so tired of the slow profits i make from Binance and Gdax.

Loshan (@loshan1212) reported@SatoshiHitchens @lite_hause @LynAldenContact Stop trying to rewrite history. At the time Coinbase's exchange (GDAX) added ETH (#2) and a few months later they added (#3) litecoin. They were simply expanding customer options to gain more customers.

Depression BTC (@depression2019) reported@queenwartooth Bro it’s 100% real but totally unrelated. Just hilarious timing. I’m currently getting audited rn from 2017 gdax coinbase 1099 error

Timothy Blake (@blaketimothy175) reportedFive years ago today, Ethereum had a flash crash down to ten cents on GDAX (Coinbase Pro) before subsequently recovering. #BTC

My_Rio (@Buni_M2021) reported@coinbase @coinbase @gdax still remains an extremely poor platform and service.

OpenCryptoPortfolioTracker.org (@taoteh1221) reportedNevermind, looks like you guys just took your old GDAX endpoint down, or that SSL certificate expired.
-
Mark Thomas (@markthomasll) reported@gdax this company sucks at customer service
-
Pledditor (@Pledditor) reported@scottshapiro @coinbase GDAX had a great UI. Your "updates" only degraded the product. And listing millions of shitcoins was a terrible idea. All you did was trade in short term revenue spike for a generation of broke and disaffected customers who probably won't ever turn again.
-
N.E. Smith (@AlphaMorphology) reported@MeatTC_ But AOL actually provided quality service for its users. $COIN has perpetually crashed during volatility even since the GDAX days.

supermegaultra8000 (@conz8000) reportedI’ve been with you guys since y’all were available. I was there for GDAX. Been rocking with y’all for years, but y’all failing me. Big time. I can’t access anything. Says order in hold, then canceled, and then says I have nothing in account. But I see alotta activity.Super upset

Alex (@Alex343) reportedwhen i first bought bitcoin it was called #GDAX, then they rebranded to Coinbase Pro. but since noobs like me are the ones using it, it is again rebranded to @CoinbaseExch... and they still dont have lightning support
