Hello,
Thank you for your interest in Coinbase. Our primary goal is to make digital currency safe and secure for our customers.

Upon careful review, we believe your account has engaged in prohibited use in violation of our Terms of Service and we regret to inform you that we can no longer provide you with access to our service. We respectfully request that you follow the on-screen instructions presented when you log into your Coinbase account to send any remaining balance offsite to an external address.
Should you have any questions or need assistance, please let us know and we'll be happy to help.

I only ever made 1 purchase using that Coinbase account, which was to Nootropics Depot.
It was sometime last week. Purchase was fulfilled - although I got the above email earlier today.

Just moved all my currency off coinbase. Sorry this shit is happening man... I wish our country could get over this fear of nootropics/supplements and drug stigmatization. There is far worse shit available at your local grocery store, yet they don't remove their processing methods without notice and due process. There has to be some special interest involved.

It's really ridiculous. I don't even publicly talk about most of the stuff we deal with. This Coinbase thing is just one small issue we had today. It gets so draining sometimes.
