I really am just trying to understand what your point of view is? Is it that off the back of them saying they are the first us regulated exchange , you thought this was bullish for the price? Is it because you feel the lunar launch animation suggested the price was going to the moon? HoHow did they make you buy bitcoins you otherwise would not have? And how did you lose 200k? Did you buy at the top of the price spike, and then sell low? Or what?

First off don't worry about my money or point of view because I don't mean shit. Just focus on the bigger picture of Bitcoin.

They rick rolled Bitcoin as a whole by lying to the media about news that was a flat out lie. The state of California even stepped in Tuesday. No telling how many sales they generated through creating this buzz and then not even buying customers BTC until after the market takes a huge plunge.

It just smells to high hell.

Do your own research I guess.

I already have as much information as the next guy to draw research on. I was asking you specifically what you feel happened and how they scammed you , but it seems that you cannot answer the question for some reason

I saw that cali regulators stepped in to say lunar/ Coinbase is not regulated in cali, but did Coinbase themselves say they were? Or did they actually say they are "operating in cali" ?? And even if they did say regulated, then why did that cause you to buy a shit ton of btc? And then how did you make an actual loss, what is the mechanism you made the loss by? Is it an actual loss ?? A loss on potential profit, an unrealized (as of yet loss) That is what i was trying to understand from you.

Anyway, I wish you luck in your future trading

You still haven't answered his questions.. what exactly did Coinbase lie about? "To the moon"?

Sorry to be thick here.... but.. so what?

I am trying to understand what is it exactly that you are accusing them of, and how did they fool you into buying Bitcoins you otherwise did not want ? And into losing 200k and how did you lose the 200k ?

You can read it in the court papers if you don't understand it yet.

I'm not the best person there is to type it out apparently.

I am more confused now. I am asking you, as someone who is stating they got scammed , how exactly you got scammed ,and how you lost 200k, it should be relatively easy to explain ?

Hahaha! I sill don't understand what you are trying to do here, Bay.

I just want people to know who used Coinbase on Sunday that they got fucked.

The fucked ness doesn't end there either. It effects all Bitcoiners.

Bitcoin holders are so blinded by the fact they want their Bitcoin stash to go up that are going to miss that they just got fucked by a major USA Bitcoin Company if no one voices up.

Getting scammed often comes with butthurt, but I could give a fuck less about $220,000 frankly over not getting flim flammed for even $1.

It's still business as usual other wise via selling silver and such for BTC on my end. Honey Badgers don't give no fucks about suits!

I think he is hoping that with enough yelling he can create some sort of buzz and somehow sue CoinBase for his bad investment then hopefully get a settlement.

Completely ignoring the whole "buy on rumor, sell on news" aspect of trading. It is usually the case to sell on the news because it is not as exciting as the rumors make it out to be (in this case, though CoinBase is licensed and regulated as the rumors presented, it is only regulated in 23 states).

They can shove a settlement up their own ass unless that bitch is beautiful.

I want to see them come out from hiding in their secret office and in front of a judge.

Its hilarious how quiet this thread goes when the price is rising compared to when it falls $10. Just trolls left = confirmed.

10,000 pages ago there actually were interesting posts where people were really analyzing TA and tossing ideas around. Now the best we have is TL;DR walls of text from concern trolls. Lately they've been coming for /r/bitcoinmarkets too.

It's pretty bad. I'm not going to post any TA unless newbie jail is brought back. This is the most popular thread on the forum and quality posts get shit on day in and day out from these shills with nothing to contribute.

I don't think the newbie jail will change much. These are economically motivated posters who are being allowed to deliberately deface the forum and discredit bitcoin in any way possible. They state openly they want to destroy bitcoin and then proceed to do everything in their (limited) power to bring that about. Posters that have previously been banned from the forum (Atlas and Goat spring to mind) were orders of magnitude less offensive (I found both quite entertaining and interesting tbh).

These guys are just cretins who have zero to contribute, their 'criticisms' are the usual baseless lies, FUD and misinformation that have been thoroughly refuted here over 4 years ago, yet all they do is repeat the same ad nauseum (a tool of propaganda). I've seen exactly the same modus operandi on other investing sites, which apparently bitcointalk has become in parts, and they will destroy this forum if they are allowed to run amok as they have been so far. They should have been banned long ago ... theymos and mods need to grow a backbone and realise what is happening, and soon.

In the end, censorship by the government is always the solution.
I knew it.

Hmm...Censorship

I think marcus is right...

But It is not censorship the thread/forum needs but reasoned moderating, I like a joke as much as the next guy, but...... there is the obvious is obvious trolling, aggressive, insult hurling trolling, constant repetitive trolling. That has got little to do with freedom of speech, that is more like verbal abuse

Buy a new mouse and click on ignore if the link doesn't work for you.
Don't decide for me what is trolling or abusive.

1 exception, scammers who deliberately con you from bitcoins. You should put them in jail or shoot them, but that's another discussion.

I do not believe I was trying to decide anything for you.

You do, because you want moderation on this forum to remove the obvious trolling and words you don't like.

Quote

Just expressing my opinion, hope that's cool.

Of course it's cool, that's what it's all about, freedom of speech.
If you don't like it, there is a feature called 'ignore button', use it.

I rather have an indicator of how many people are on somebodys ignore list.
Then I know who not to give too much attention to...

I get what you are saying, all up for freedom of speech.. But trolling is not communication imo.. It is something else.

When you say rickrolled are you referring to the "lunar launch"? tbh I took that with a pinch of salt, they played on the moon meme, and the lunar name, it was cute but it never meant anything... Surely no one thought that meant anything other than the opening of the exchange? (which I do wonder if they rushed because of Gemini)

They had this hidden in the source code of the lunar launch.

Hahaha! I sill don't understand what you are trying to do here, Bay. With or without coinbase keeping their promises, bitcoin was still on its way to a big dumpage. That Lunar bullshit was just a great pretext for a pump and dump and that's it. Don't tell me that it was an organic growth and all of a sudden it collapsed because some shills didn't deliver haha

Come on, Bay, these things happened in the altcoin world everyday and no one came with lawsuits and a bunch of threads after getting destroyed. You are just butthurt that you lost a shit load of money on the shittiest trade you have ever made.
