I think GDAX is Coinbase. If you deposit $ and then buy ETH or BTC it still takes 4 days for the $ to be deposited. I'd argue that if you have to wait anyways it's better to buy on Coinbase to lock in your price.

Not sure about Gemini.

Not true. I've been on GDAX for a month or so and every transaction has been instant. GDAX is the exchange that all coinbase orders get routed through. It's 100% better to use GDAX over CB. The fees on CB are a killer and GDAX uses a maker/taker model that is infinitely better.

Most of portfolio is ETH, but I decided to buy some BTC when it dipped a little. The plan was to trade some altcoins with the BTC once it hits 3000. I wasn't expecting it to rise close to there this fast.

Yeah, I thought he was talking about the initial deposit/purchase. Bank->Account will take 4 days whether you but ETH/BTC directly on CB or deposit $ straight into GDAX.

What I mean by Coinbase is GDAX is that Coinbase is the owner of GDAX.

Gemini is instant. They credit you with whatever amount you deposited while they wait for the bank deposit to go through.

So would you recommend using gdax or Gemini? Seems like people are pretty negative on cb
