... Furthermore the future of bitcoin does not depend on miners or traders but on the mass adoption of bitcoin by mainstream retailers worldwide.

Yup. That would make Bitcoin either collapse or force the infrastructure into an increasingly small pool of operators thus changing completely the reason why some of us consider it to have strength. So, I agree that 'the future of bitcoin' does depend on this.

I normally qualify my statements of this nature as some form of a conjecture on my part, but since I am commenting on a statement which lacked this qualification I'll defer as well.

Back On-T, I've since Sept made over 20 sales through Coinbase with an average of over 5 figures each and none that I recall have exceeded the expected timings. Most beat the expectations.

Back Off-T, one of the risk factors that influence my draw-down planning is indeed the threat of mass adoption. Mass adoption or appearance of it will probably do great things for the price of BTC. At least for a while. But I am quite confident that it will change the nature of the solution to one which has limited appeal to me.

My conclusions from this thread: I am glad theBritt got his money. It took 18 days but that is faster than Mt.Gox. Coinbase should have a more open policy, perhaps a special concierge service for orders over $10,000. The USA should have a bitcoin exchange but given the regulatory environment that seems unlikely to happen soon. However as more retailers accept bitcoin the USA's lack of an exchange starts to become an issue of financial security for US domestic trade. In this instance theBritt may have overestimated his/her tolerance for risk. Given the volatile nature of bitcoin we should all consider how much we can afford to risk losing. Furthermore the future of bitcoin does not depend on miners or traders but on the mass adoption of bitcoin by mainstream retailers worldwide.

Hit my account right around midnight (Wednesday to Thursday). Hard to be any more on time than that!

I made a sale last week and expected an ACH deposit to complete this Monday. It didn't complete until Tuesday.

During the time the deposit was pending, there was a "tracking number" available to me - does anyone know where and how to use this?

You can use it when you contact CB support. As far as a "tracking number" is concerned, you can't use it to track your transaction anywhere on their website.

Got a 10 BTC sale made Thur night deposited and transferred (out of my dedicated landing account) by Tue morning.

Just made another 10 BTC sale and the estimate shown on the pop-up was deposit by Friday. I'll update if I think of it and can find this thread.

Received 2 withdrawals, 1 day late from the estimate as usual. BoAs usually pretty fast with my ACHs so I see how other people are getting them 2 days late.

Whoa, there are a lot of cats in this wall.

I just received my funds from my withdrawal last Monday. 2 business days late, but better late than never. It appears crazy rabbit is right. They're just experiencing massive growth and having trouble keeping up.

When I did my bank account verification, within 24 hours. Estimated date of today no money. All my ach go through within 1 business day if they were actually completed. Why allow withdrawals if you don't have the money which its obvious you don't. What another scam exchange

Yesterday was a holiday.

A holiday followed by a weekend. Followed by what apparently was an enormous explosion of new years on coinbase. Apparently they are swamped. :-/

I will absolutely keep everyone updated. Including if coinbase does (finally) do the right thing and correct this.

I have multiple emails were they have admitted culpability anyway. It's just a question of whether this is a contracts case or if punitive damages are warranted. I've been unable to make any trades in three weeks now.

We shall see.

I'm having very long delays waiting for a couple of deposits. This has been happening with Coinbase for the last month at least with no explanations and every support response is a basic canned response not helpful at all. The real big problem with them is they are fully aware of all these problems and keep operating, just adding fuel to the fire. They should at least CEASES operations, get their shit together then open back up. Operating under faulty conditions and leaving all their customer's just guessing what the issues are is a bad practice. It would take them just minutes to suspend operations temporarily and/or put up a notice for everyone to see.

Nah, just ask camolist, he knows it all. Apparently wanting your money is a 'witch hunt'. Maybe he should back off when he isn't the one with thousands being held by conbase.

Anyway, here we are over two weeks later and still no money. I've retained a lawyer with btc knowledge, and given them until Wednesday to give me my money and appropriate compensation for the thousands they have cost me.

Good. Make sure you get that compensation. It is hard for non bitcoin people to understand but if you give them examples like stock exchange sales and stuff like that they will start to understand how it works. Yea, ACH deposits take a couple of days. We are all aware that US banking system is the worst in the world, but I don't think these delays are related to the banking system. It has something to do with Coinbase. They literally are playing with all our money and seem to think they are immune to any consequences on what happens. Keep us informed.
