Apologies from Coinbase for Solana Glitches
In a post on X on January 22, Armstrong admitted that the Solana transaction backlog was addressed, adding that transactions should now process quickly. He apologized for any inconvenience caused to users who faced transaction cancellations or delays.
Plans for Infrastructure Improvement
Armstrong acknowledged the need for better Solana support and noted that Coinbase needs to upgrade its infrastructure and provide native support for common use cases like DEX/memecoin trading.
Reactions from the Crypto Community
The crypto community remains skeptical. One user, @PAGANDWOLF, pointed out that the platform had many years to address these issues and prepare for surges in activity like those seen in past bull markets. Armstrong noted that the increased activity is beneficial for the ecosystem but admitted the need to improve customer service during high demand.
Coinbase aims to enhance its platform to avoid such issues in the future. The company's CEO emphasized the importance of high-quality customer service, especially during periods of increased demand for Solana.
