Did they say anything about whether or not they would also be blocking electronic wire transfers in to your cap one accounts from coinbase to?
Didn't say. What type of account do you have with them to allow that? Wasn't aware of such a payment option.

Interesting..... ETH stands at 1016.00 per right now, but when I try to buy 1020's worth, it says it's .9877658687 units........

There are fees associated with buying crypto. That's the difference.

Oooh. I thought that might be it.

It doesn't matter. By the time it arrives in an account it could be 1100 again. It could be 700 again. He could also lose out on an opportunity to buy an alt coin before it moons.
You buy when it's a price point you're comfortable with or the price is so low you have to trade in some fiat.
Of course, if your only goal is to horde ethereum, then whatever, track patterns and buy dips.
But if you're alt coin investing, getting it in your account sooner rather than later is preferred.

I agree with all of this.

I won't lie, I'm a little worried right now.
The wall of sale orders on eth is huge 1100-1050 after that huge rally and there is some FUD floating around about regulations. Plus, the support at 950-1k is thin.
I'm wondering if someone knows something we don't.

Simply irrelevant. Like I stated.

I never thought I'd say this with ETH's volume but it's being manipulated I think.
Looked and saw a 1400 eth sell wall at 1030, got up and went in the other room and it was gone and added to 1040.
eta: Although I genuinely don't understand why whoever is doing this is doing it, assuming I am correct. Keeping ETH low will just hurt their ability to buy certain alt coins that are due to increase in the coming weeks. The time frame doesn't make sense.

What's the down side if it stays low for a little while?

Lets say VEN, ICX go up a little between now and their announcements because people start wanting to buy in before a moon shot.
If ETH does not rise in a semi-proportional manner, VEN and ICX will become much stronger vs. eth and make it more "expensive" to purchase from a relative standing.
It's just an odd decision from a strategic standpoint of someone who has the resources to do something like manipulate ETH, unless
warning: metafrickery conspiracy shilling
1. They want to limit the amount others are able to buy of the coin, for whatever reason
2. There is going to be a massive alt-coin or bitcoin selloff and they want to accumulate as much ETH as possible during the exchange.
Of course, there could be no metafrickery and I am just overly paranoid from watching VEN get fricked with for 6 months.

WTC & VEN currently the only 2 coins in the top 100 market cap in the 24 hour green. Love both

VEN has more growing to do even before the announcements. A lot of good news for it wasnt priced in because of the crash and it also was suppressed for awhile.

This fricking cock sucker right here

Seeing that, I almost want to risk selling my VEN and waiting for a dip to buy back in so I can turn a little profit really quick.

Maybe, maybe not. I think it swings enough often enough that I could unless some big news came out that fricks me. I did it yesterday with ICX and bought back in this morning. I'm not in as cheap but I have more shares now with the same initial investment because of my profits. I won't do that again with ICX because we're too close to Mainnet launch but with VEN I am tempted.

It's risky but not necessarily a bad idea.
I considered it but I am not sure if the benefits outweigh the risks.
Usually, when it came up to a wall, it rebounded almost 0.001 eth. But over the weekend with volume at unprecedented levels for VEN, smaller walls got eaten into and dropped. I was waiting for the "Wall recoil" and almost lost a significant amount of ven when the seller dropped his wall as it got eaten (ended up only losing 1 ven, thankfully).
Right now its at about 40k~ ETH 24h volume. If that starts to drop, it could be a good idea. But if it maintains the current volume, I'd just hodl. Otherwise it won't drop it enough from the recoil to justify the risk.

I mean then you’re just switching your market risk from VEN to either BTC or ETH, and VEN has been swimming upstream in a heavy red crypto current. Goes back to my theme that alts need to be thought of relative to BTC/ETH and not fiat. Be sure to consider transaction fees in your analysis if you’re expecting to make quick narrow margin trades.

ICX has a huge wall up now too
