Coinbase Users Become Trillions - Trader Balances Increase By Orders Of Orders Of Orders
The other day due to the failure of the CoinMarketCap portal started displaying incorrect rates of all digital currencies... For example, Bitcoin “rose in price” to $ 800 billion. Coinbase reported a similar problem.
The cryptocurrency exchange has made some users millionaires, billionaires, and even trillionaires. True, none of the owners of the cryptocurrency was able to extract preferences from the failure. As a result of a fatal error, millions, billions, and in some cases even trillions of dollars appeared on the accounts of users.
Almost immediately, representatives of the exchange reported that astronomical amounts were just a "display problem" that did not affect trading in any way. A related announcement was posted on the official Coinbase Twitter page. The developers fixed the problem very quickly.
Note that Coinbase is far from the safest digital currency trading platform. In mid-fall, hackers were able to bypass two-factor authentication and robbed several thousand users.
