Yes it extremely easy, it seems like that's the only painless part they provide is taking our money LOL. I never heard of Abra, nor ever looked into Gemini but will now.

Also from what i understand is that Ethos is supposed to greatly improve on Coinbases faults.

I just hope that one of these Coinbase alternatives either present or future, provide a way for Canadians to buy AND sell using fiat, right now Coinbase doesn't allow Canadians to sell on their platform.
