I admit that "calculated" might be a stretch, considering how far off their delivery date is. Despite that, the original announcement could have been more realistic ("we might support it soon ") but it wouldn't have made nearly as many headlines.

It does seem like they're understaffed. Maybe they were hoping the fork would wither away quickly and they wouldn't need to deal with it. As one of the largest exchanges they should have better contingency planning than that.

I hope they continue to succeed because I do like Coinbase.
