Could you kindly explain what occurs when a transaction remains in a pending state on the Coinbase platform? I'm curious about the potential reasons for this delay and whether there's anything I can do to expedite the process. Additionally, I'd like to understand the potential impact this pending status might have on my funds and the overall security of my transactions. Would you mind clarifying these points for me?

When a user initiates a transaction through Coinbase, our system broadcasts the details to the wider network for validation and confirmation. This process is crucial for ensuring the legitimacy and immutability of each transaction.

Occasionally, our nodes may temporarily lose synchronization with the rest of the network. Such synchronization issues can arise due to various factors, including network congestion or technical glitches.

When synchronization is disrupted, it can lead to delays in the confirmation of transactions. This is because the transaction details need to be verified and accepted by a sufficient number of nodes across the network.

The result of this temporary synchronization loss is that transactions may remain in a Pending state for longer than usual. Users may experience increased wait times for their transactions to be processed and confirmed.
