COINBASE USERS: BTC delays 12+ hrs, here's a workaround

Nothing groundbreaking but I wouldn't have missed XB's cutoff if I had thought of it last night.

Rather than wait over 12 hours for coinbase to send your coin, buy LTC or ETH and use shapeshift to convert to BTC. Just like that you got around the bullshit 12 to 24hr wait in 30min.

Just a tip.

You literally just saved my ass. I was just about to buy coin for something I needed to order today.

PM me your btc addy and I'll tip you 10 bucks for this! No joke

Fuck coinbase! The 12hr wait is the least of their customer issues. I've had assets there for over 6months and they won't allow me to purchase, sell, withdraw or convert anything at all cause there has been a pause on it. No customer service whatsoever. I hav no idea how to gain access to my money or contact someone who kan help me! Arghh.. Fuck CBase!

Fucking took over 13 hours for 3 deposits. For fuck sakes. Took $300 L because of how long this shit took lol. Btw any fees for converting this?

I transferred 4BTC it only took 17 mins tbqh.

Had a tx take 6+ hours over night. But the fees you would be paying using shapeshift probably aren't worth it unless you need it asap.

Fuck that. ShapeShift to XMR!

Here's a workaround: Don't use Coinbase as a wallet to send and receive from. Use a wallet you control.
