Officially. Now Coinbase users will pay a fee for transactions with kriptovayutoy on their credit cards.
Apparently, governments around the world tend to be suspended from cryptocurrency because of the anonymity and the possibility of tax evasion on the part of criminals. But the banks do not mind getting a piece of cake.
Merchant Category Code - this is the four-digit number that will be assigned to buyers and sellers. This will allow banks to classify the transaction by type of goods and services that they provide. It is a way for tax authorities, such as the Internal Revenue Service of America and the Canadian Revenue Agency in Canada, monitor the business.
What has changed?
Note the transaction is below. First performed at the end of 2017, and the second this week. Both for purchasing cryptocurrency. The first stands alone. Second XCHARX with the commission in the amount of $ 10.

Add to this the fact that JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Citigroup are now prohibited cryptocurrency customers to buy with credit cards.
It seems that the battle between the centralized and decentralized government wing of the digital economy is really heating up. First gaining significant power even when they seek to establish a tax policy for kriptovalyutnoy industry.
Confirmed.
Didnt get the fee because i went mad at the bank.
But coinbase has lost me as a customer now. Byebye coinbase, you fucked up bad

Yep, can confirm this. I've had several transactions over the last week through Coinbase using my Citi credit card, and each transaction has been met with a $10 "cash advance fee". It is inconvenient, however we knew that this would come one day and there will be bigger challenges in the future that we must work through as well.

For ages i have used coinbase to put the left over change in my bank account the day before payday into crypto. Its no longer worth it to do that with this ridiculous cash advance payment. I am with commonwealth bank of australia.
