Sorry are they merely misappropriating stock market terms to cyrptocurrencies, or are there actually "blue chip" and "penny" considerations we take into crypto now?

I remember someone in this thread saying Coinbase had your USD balance in a FDIC insured account so they considered that balance to be perfectly safe because they wouldn't piss off the USA government.

I guess if the money doesn't ever reach the FDIC insured account then it's fine!

EDIT: actually might not even be that?

Missing wire of $10,000 for 69 days, and still counting

That has been going on for over half a year with Coinbase where randomly wires/transfers will just disappear into a black hole when they hit Coinbase and support never does anything about it.

I'm wondering if it's the person sending the money tripping an alert with the US government and it's being confiscated and Coinbase has to be hush about it.

You know I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't a clause in the ToS for Coinbase which states "by using this service you agree not to pursue any legal action against Coinbase LLC".

Sometimes it's not the bomb that's retarded.

What does Coinbase do that makes people believe it's a legitimate operation?

And on that note, what's the rear end inflation rate?

Could a financial institution like Coinbase even theoretically set up proxy separate FDIC insured bank accounts for each individual customer? Does FDIC insurance even work that way?

Yes it’s called a custodial account but your insurance is by bank so if you have 175K with BOA and coinbase happens to bank there only 75K is insured.

Also if you have $350K worth of crypto and $10K of "cash balance" inside of Coinbase and it goes bankrupt, FDIC will only give you the $10K back (and even that's a maybe, if it can be proven that the 10K was in an FDIC insured bank). Crypto is not insurable by US gov't. Since almost no one just keeps USD balance inside of coinbase and everything is in crypto coins, if it goes down everyone will lose everything and there is no insurance.

They carefully fineprint all this poo poo so dumb buttcoiners can spread the "everything you have is insured!" lie on Reddit.

yes, that's how it works. this is why when people try to look for coinbase listed under the FDIC list of insured institutions, they can't find it

they bank with metropolitan commercial bank which afaik is local only to nyc so the likelihood of overlap is pretty low
