 Absolutely true! From a general SaaS business perspective, Coinbase is one of the worst. Over the years they have continually struggled and outright failed to solve the most basic micro service scaling problems. Their hiring initiatives have always been focused on hiring lower paid engineers to pump out half baked features. While I have nothing against those engineers, their technology platform is trash compared to where it should be after so many years. In hindsight, I’m sure that is all part of the plan.
