I have been unable lately to use Paypal to make purchases on coinbase, it was never an issue before but the last month or so, each transaction is cancelled.

Hello @DobbsSM,
Welcome to the PayPal Community Forum and thank you for the post!
I'm sorry to hear about the trouble you've had recently while making the payment. Payments can often be blocked or declined if we detect any unusual or suspicious activity. We decline some payments to help protect you from any possible fraudulent activity. If you've verified that there are no suspicious charges in your account, please try the payment again at a later time. If the issue persists, I would recommend reaching out to our customer support team through the contact options available on our website.
I hope this helps,
Ayesha

What is the suspicious activity that causes my orders from coinbase to be cancelled? I am the one placing the orders.
