| Posted: 25 Aug 2021 01:21 PM PDT Copy-pasted from my recent /r/Coinbase submission, which was deliberately removed (censored) by /u/coinbasesupport. Screenshot of Coinbase's censorship The original content: --- I am posting this to warn other long-time and fully verified Coinbase customers. You should know your loyalty means nothing to Coinbase. I have been with Coinbase almost from the start of their exchange, but Coinbase is treating me like I just arrived. My account has been fully verified and fully KYC-compliant from the beginning, but Coinbase just blocked me from trading and funding my account for no reason at all. Approximately four weeks, I created several threads on Reddit about a notice I received from Coinbase. The notice stated an upcoming (yet unexplained) account review during which I won't be able to trade or fund my account. Withdrawals wouldn't be affected. Naturally, I have withdrawn everything from Coinbase. On Reddit, /u/coinbasesupport publicly promised to expedite my case and get back to me within five business days. That was nearly four weeks ago. They never resolved my case and instead just close my original case (case ---). I created another ticket and a thread on Reddit in response. Same thing happened: public promises–but no action. Several days ago, I received an auto-generated email from Coinbase requesting information and supporting documentation in order to, for the 100th time, verify my account. I sent all the required information within one day of receiving that request. No problem because, like previously stated, I have been fully KYC compliant since day one. I just received another Coinbase email where they state that, despite having received all the information and documentation they requested from me, the account review still may take up to 3 months! So I basically wasted the past month communicating with Coinbase and creating threads on Reddit. I highly doubt a real person has read a single of my emails in full. This is beyond frustrating and is borderline criminal behaviour. There is nothing I did that could have triggered this "review", so all I can do is speculate. For example, is Coinbase trying to manipulate the market by disabling certain accounts from trading? Coinbase's behaviour is negatively affecting the entire crypto industry; it's causing people to lose trust and confidence in so-called regulated exchanges. What point is there in giving up all my personal information when you decide to ignore it anyway? In before /u/coinbasesupport asks for a ticket ID: there is no ticket ID for the account review because it was initiated by Coinbase. I already replied to that email with all the requested information. I uploaded the requested documentation via SendSafely. You can use the SendSafely ID to link it to my case, which is: (---) I also created a fresh ticket where I ask my case to be expedited (because you promised four weeks ago). The new ticket ID is (---). It's a shame that this is how Coinbase treats its long-time and loyal customers. It shows that "loyalty" to Coinbase isn't worth anything to the company. Looking forward to hearing from you. But just to be on the safe side, I don't expect to be hearing from you at all. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 25 Aug 2021 08:13 PM PDT You tell your 18 year old son he should start saving for retirement. Even if he invests 5 dollars worth of Bitcoin a week he will be able to retire comfortably. "But dad Bitcoins price is 10 million a coin! " you tell your son a single Bitcoin can be split into a quadrillion fractions. He smiles and buys 10$ worth of Bitcoin on Coinbase. You open up the doors to your mansion and get in your Lambo. You were one of the lucky ones who bought Bitcoin under 100,000. [link] [comments]  | ||

| New El Salvador Bitcoin Channel: Aiming to Help Regular Salvadorans Understand Bitcoin Posted: 25 Aug 2021 03:44 PM PDT Hi Folks! We're a new channel in El Salvador who exist to educate regular people on how Bitcoin and cryptocurrency works. This is our first video which was made for people in El Salvador who don't understand how Bitcoin works. We call it the "two minute version for Grandma". We will release more videos to report on how Bitcoin adoption is going in El Salvador. Next, we will release a version with English subtitles on Monday. In the mean time - if you are pro-Bitcoin & are interested in 'liking' the video and subscribing - it would help us to reach more people in El Salvador and Latin America. Bitcoin in El Salvador will only work if regular Salvadorans understand Bitcoin and get onboard. Check out the link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDkZa6Z-gZg Thank you!

| Can someone create a reddit bot for when someone asks for a non KYC wallet? Posted: 26 Aug 2021 01:51 AM PDT That automatically replies that a KYC wallet is not a wallet, but an exchange account? Specially relevant for r/BitcoinBeginners [link] [comments]  | ||

| How does the tax payment works in America? Posted: 26 Aug 2021 03:52 AM PDT Hi, I moved out from China with my mining rigs, and I would like to mine in America. I've heard that mining in USA should pay tax for it and I would like to obey the regulations, but I don't know exactly how. Some tips would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 25 Aug 2021 05:32 PM PDT It's rather odd to see them prioritize pushing out their service out to the UK when the most important feature is yet to be implemented. The ability to withdraw Bitcoin into cold storage but self custody seem to be on the lowest of their priority. I've heard rumors of their plan to allow merchants to accept Bitcoin but with will keep it and pay the fiat exchange rate to the merchants. I wouldn't be posting this thread if more people talked about this, but so far I've witness very few criticism of Paypals actions. Why would a feature of this size be seen as less important than giving people nothing beyond "exposure" and letting them sell it. Cashapp who's a much smaller company in size allows you to buy, sell and now withdraw your Bitcoin, theres a daily limit but it's an option that Paypal doesn't think is important to people buying it. My grip with that company is not the same as many others who now realized their mistake of buying Bitcoin on their app before understanding Bitcoin. My issue is the fact that I'm stuck with Coinbase, while they allow you to withdraw your Bitcoin into a wallet, that particular exchange comes with a host of problems that I'm sure we're all familiar with. I couldn't use my account for 2 whole months before getting a real human to talk to and review my account. Terrible customer service. Bad transaction fees. KYC was nightmare and now that my only form of ID is expired, I'm left with them. PayPal can not only mitigate these issues with the convenience it provides the millions of KYC approved clients who already registered to their service, they also easily speed up adoption rate because of this fact alone. So don't see what's keeping them from letting people have the option of actually owning their Bitcoin. [link] [comments]  | ||
