This clown has never used GDAX or probably bought crypto, and his comments throughout crypto threads show how clueless he is. Coinbase/GDAX is a bit glitchy with wires and customer service at this point in time kinda sucks. Open a support ticket you'll get your money back.

Intelligent investors invest what they can afford to lose. What would you do if the stock market crashed tomorrow?

I look at bitcoin as a speculation . speculating is all about timing the market .

broad based investing is all about time in the markets

Since most got in before $10,000 it doesn’t matter for the majority. I’m still sitting on gains of about 300%.

That would be impossible. I withdrew my entire original investment plus a little extra in early December. I only left in the profits. So if Bitcoin goes to zero tomorrow I didn’t lose.

Coinbase. It fell into the 9000’s in most exchanges yesterday morning. It lingered there for hours. I read lots of technical analysis that said $8k was a buy zone and took a shot. I figured it would fall tout $8k before rebounding. It never hit $8k.

ROFL !


Now there's a reason to invest....


"It always seems to come back".....


You can't make this stuff up.

Huh? Buy and holding for the long term has been the most profitable strategy in Bitcoin. Trying to time the markets on something that rises 100’s of percent in weeks is a fool’s errand.
