Coinbase sucks

in #cryptocurrency8 years ago

The price of most of the cryptocurrency are down and almost low for the week. Take a look at chart as of now.

It's a great opportunity to buy some of the coins and stack them as it has high probability of going up soon.

Ethereum is as low as $251. I know we all want to get some ethers at this price but coinbase won't allow you to do so.

Shows message "ETH buys are temporarily offline". It really seems like not a good business practice when it won't let you buy when the price is down. This happens with coinbase everytime the price goes down. Coinbase server has been down more than 3 times this week and all of the time was when the price of ether and bitcoin were low.

It really frustates when this thing happens and doesn't seems like a good place to reply to buy crypto.

The only other option I know is Gemini. Any other place where you can buy crypto currency without hassle and also that won't let you down.

Any suggestions will be great.

Thanks!

Or buy litcoin and transfer it to an exchange and buy eth over there?

Agree coinbase has issues, but it's not alone- networks for cryptocurrencies can't handle high volumes apparently.
