ICOs are as frustrating as hellsteemCreated with Sketch.

Always an issue

Is it just me? Or does anybody else find it as frustrating as hell trying to get involved in an ICO?

This is the second time I've tried to get involved with an ICO that I think might be worthwhile.
It's also the second time that I've come away with nothing but feelings of frustration and annoyance.

The first time was purely down to weight of traffic.
This time, it's my old "friend" Coinbase.

It should have been easy
Step one :
Get a metamask account
Done

Step two :
Send ether to account
Pending
Pending
Pending
Pending

Wait. Why is it pending?
After a little more digging I find out the reason. Once again, Coinbase has let me down.

I've been saying it for a while now. But i need to change exchanges. I can't have it that I'm missing out on things because the exchange is "having issues".
Not my problem. I pay every time I use your exchange. I expect a fair service in return.

Tomorrow I'm finally moving my folio out of your terrible exchange. I just hope Gemini are better.

Coinbase is unavaible when bitcoin price is up

Or down, or Ether is up or down.
Unavailable/unbelievable.

I had the exact same problem yesterday and it is extremely upsetting and frustrating!! When I did the same thing two days ago it worked fine. I must imagine that Coinbase had a lot of ETH withdrawal request yesterday tied to EOS auction ending and their system or software could not handle it. It is still pending after 17 hours!!!! This is not acceptable but I am not sure what my other options are in terms of a different exchange... Very upsetting...

So I see buddy. I sent you a reply.
