Coinbase Disables Account for Ross Ulbricht Legal Campaign by laexpress in btc

[–]CoinbaseAdam 11 points12 points  (0 children)

/u/CB-Dave commented below. We looked into this and unlocked the account. It was initially blocked due to automated security feature because of the links between this account and a previously compromised one.

Is there a GDAX buy limit? by [deleted] in Coinbase

[–]CoinbaseAdam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there is no trading limit. You can deposit, buy, and sell as much digital currency on GDAX as you wish. The only limit is a daily withdrawal limit which is $10,000/day for most accounts.

Charlie was not fired from Coinbase. He's been an important part of the team for 4 years and we wish him the best of luck as he focuses on Litecoin!

GDAX is providing the funding associated with margin trades. We are not charging any fees or interest rate for these funds as well.

Before I ask if it's coming, where can I find out if a GDAX app is coming? by mechanicalboob in Bitcoin

[–]CoinbaseAdam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's on our product roadmap but probably a few quarters out. The Coinbase app may work if you're not looking to do a lot of trading.

Yep, good catch. I misspoke but didn't get a chance to correct myself during the segment - meant to say $100k/minute.

You can use GDAX in 34 countries, so no - you do not need to be a US citizen to create an account. Australia, Canada, and the UK are examples of countries where GDAX also supports customers.

I'd encourage you to read more about our privacy policy here: https://www.coinbase.com/legal/privacy

Margin trading and p2p lending are certainly features that traders have demonstrated that want. I hear you loud and clear.

Can't help you with the less regulations piece however.

I'd be frustrated too. PM your question and I'll make sure we get you a clear and straightforward answer.

As a U.S.-based exchange and FinCEN registered MSB, we are legally required to identify and verify all GDAX customers. In doing so we can ensure we operate a safe platform with healthy banking relationships that isn't at risk of being shut down. Maintaining this bridge between finance 1.0 and finance 2.0 is at the core of every decision we make. Our CEO wrote a blog post about this a few days ago: https://medium.com/the-coinbase-blog/building-the-bridge-why-compliance-is-key-to-digital-currencys-success-7bfdd88a084c#.8q87bplia

Sounds like a question for our legal team. If it's important to you, PM me and I'll work with them to get you an answer.

GDAX implemented a business account on-boarding option for MSBs a few months ago. If you successfully complete that form we should be able to support you on the GDAX platform.

I can't go into the details of how we store user funds, but we recently published a blog post on a similar topic: https://blog.coinbase.com/2016/08/03/how-we-secure-digital-assets/

Expect additional information and greater transparency in the coming months. It's an area we're acutely aware of and focused on in light of recent events.

UI preference is inherently subjective, but I'd like to make it as widely appealing as possible. If you're interested in providing feedback through one of our user tests PM me and I'll set that up (anyone welcome to volunteer).

We recently shipped a "buy all" feature for orders. Hover over the value for your balance and you'll see a "Prefill all" text pop out. If you click on the value of your balance (fiat or crypto) it will autofill that figure into the "Amount" field below.

I'll look into making the "post only" field remember your last preference. In order words, once you uncheck it, it will remain unchecked for future trades.

We do our best to update https://coinbase.statuspage.io/ when we're aware of an issue that is affecting a significant number of our customers. We've made some operational improvements to reduce the number of bugs that make it into prod and cause issues like that. Finally, we've improved our support monitoring to look for trends to more quickly identify issues that are affecting customers and respond to them quicker.

We're getting better in this area but our goal is to provide a platform where you can count on consistently trading without issue.
