#Coinbase (not Coinbase Advanced) fees are insane, and I can’t believe they still get away with it. A $50 #Bitcoin purchase has a $1.99 fee, but flipping the “advanced” toggle and making a market order of $50 results in $0.37 of fees. That’s nearly a 4% fee versus a 0.74% fee for knowing to flip a toggle and know what a “market” order even is.
