Coinbase/GDAX has to be feeling pretty good about this. My personal experience with Poloniex was abysmal. It took months before I was verified, and the platform was constantly down and too slow to use.

Coinbase/GDAX isn't perfect by any means, but they do seem to be getting more stable, while doing 3-4x the volume of Polo.

Coinbase made a billion dollars in 2017 - a literal billion. I don't think they're thinking much about being acquired anymore....

A billion in revenue, not profit, just to be clear. Still nothing to scoff at.

And are those billions of revenue from customer fees, or amount of all trades processed by coinbase?

Why would this be good news for Coinbase?

Parent is suggesting that a better exchange is more likely to get bought, and at a better price.
