I forced myself to create this topic after noticing everyone discussing choosing Coinbase.com comfortably. Well, you are concerning to talk about its merit sides only but everything has both cons and pros, and what about the demerits of the Coinbase.com platform? Have you ever thought in this way? In this article, I attempt to provide you a comparative study of the cons and pros of the Coinbase.com platform so that you can have ideas before choosing the platform and I believe, discussions about the demerits of the platform on the forum will help, Coinbase to improve their services because the community has a power to bring the change as you all know that. Now let's get started. Pros:- Simple for using the platform. User-friendly interface. High security and the trusted platform. Easier to manage the assets as non-technical users can also own the cryptocurrencies on Coinbase. Easier to send or receive crypto. Offer rewards to the user for learning about the coins. Easier to purchase cryptocurrencies. Cons:- A centralized platform and very famous for suspending or freezing users' accounts. They do not provide an equal level of services to users from all around the world. Since you are dealing with your money and if you are from the countries where they do not offer telephone or email support services, you are more likely not to receive satisfactory answers from their support library. During the high traffic time, their system becomes irresponsive for example you may not receive 2FA code in the text messages and their downtime is looking volatile at that condition. They store your passwords or wallet's private keys to their secured servers and you will not have full control over them. Fees for purchasing the items on Coinbase is very high. Do you have any other points to add here? Highly appreciated it. Thanks😊!
