Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Linas Beliūnas (@linasbeliunas) reportedCloudflare $NET lays off 1,100+ employees to restructure for the “agentic AI “era” - stock price goes down by 25%. Coinbase $COIN lays off 14% of employees as “non-technical teams are now pushing code to production with AI” - their trading engine & status page goes down. You simply cannot make this stuff up.

Michael Martino (@battista212) reportedRevenue growth beats headcount growth in AI era. Anthropic 10x revenue while Block/Coinbase/Cloudflare cut 14-40% workforce. Linear growing because of AI, not shrinking. Strong companies expand capability without proportional headcount. Weak companies use "AI" to justify layoffs.
-
SatsySiren (@SatsySiren) reportedThe entire point of having AZs is to avoid this exact scenario. To make services redundant so that services do not go down if something happens in one data centre. @coinbase is not a serious company.
-
Javier Mardones (@javiermardoness) reported@SotaaMr @davidsenra @brian_armstrong Tokenization is the only way out. Lower fees would also help. Coinbase is very expensive.

Imam naufal athollah (@Emmafalathol) reported@alaw615 What. Are they actually saying about it cause WTF coinbase will never change

Michael Martino (@battista212) reportedAnthropic just became the 11th-15th most valuable company globally at $1-1.2T valuation after 10x annualized growth, overtaking OpenAI. Meanwhile Block cut 40%, Coinbase 14%, Cloudflare 20% of workforce citing "AI readiness." Growth concentration approaching bubble territory. #AI #TechGrowth

killerapp.eth - 🦘🐨🇦🇺🦞 🧡 $DOG - 3882.eth (@CryptoIgzeee) reportedENS DAO / ENS Labs should be doing everything possible to get exchanges, PayPal, neobanks, and fintech apps deeply integrated into the ENS ecosystem — even if it means offering extremely attractive partnership deals. Because the real problem is not naming. It’s trust, onboarding, privacy, and distribution. Creating ENS subnames is a great idea in theory. But let’s be honest for a second: most normal people are not crypto natives. Many of us who have been in crypto for years have seen: phishing attacks malicious smart contracts fake websites wallet drainers fake approvals browser exploits millions lost in seconds Even experienced users still get caught. So imagine the average PayPal or banking user. Why would they trust random independent websites asking them to connect wallets and sign smart contracts just to register a subname? I’m fully pro open ecosystem and small independent builders. But mainstream adoption does not happen through fear and confusion. It happens through trusted interfaces people already use daily. That’s why ENS should aggressively push partnerships where: PayPal Coinbase Binance Revolut Wise Robinhood banks neobanks can directly: register ENS names issue subnames manage renewals handle recovery abstract wallets simplify onboarding Now imagine the next layer: A user binds their ENS name or subname directly to their exchange or PayPal account. On the backend: the platform handles wallet infrastructure privacy becomes far better protected users avoid exposing public wallet activity directly recovery becomes easier compliance becomes easier onboarding becomes massively simpler Most people do NOT want to become crypto security experts. They just want: simple usernames easy payments trusted recovery privacy low friction ENS should stop thinking only like a protocol and start thinking like internet infrastructure. The winner is not the most decentralized product. The winner is the one that removes the most friction while keeping enough decentralization underneath. If ENS really wants .eth adoption at scale, the goal should be: “People use ENS without even realizing they are using blockchain.” That only happens through distribution partnerships.

Cristu (@Cristu) reported@Cointelegraph and then the exchange went down for 2 hours the same week, coinbase is speed running the “too big to fail” arc

raagulanpathy (@raagulanpathy) reportedI worked at AWS in 2013, and this was basic architectural decisions which can be fixed by spending more money. The problem is Coinbase is just a badly run company at this stage, they spend billions on staff and billions on acquisitions, make a loss and can’t do basic AWS architecture and running dedicated fibre and creating fast mirrored databases. Or even dedicated infrastructure. These are excuses for a $millions revenue company, not a $billions company. $COIN was once my favourite stock, and now I think it’s absolutely not. Engineers need to focus on building product and shipping, not just spending all day on policy. Harsh, but you know it’s true.

Money Platters (@MoneyPlatters) reported@coinbase considering you scam people to death and have zero customer service I would think you would have done much better!
-
AgentPays (@AgentPays_app) reported50% of internet traffic is now agents. cloudflare and coinbase are building payment rails. nobody's building the budget layer. that's the actual problem.
-
Cotic (@Cotic) reported@Layton_Gott Correct, but consider that coinbase just considered their code was working just fine with AI, until it wasn't.

ᛗᛁᛗᛁᚱ (@MimirOnChain) reported☕ 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳 — May 09, 2026 Overnight was a bureaucratic shuffle more than a market event. $BTC is holding the $80K line while Washington discovers crypto exists and apparently has opinions about it. ▸ 𝗕𝗧𝗖 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗖𝗘 Fear & Greed at 37, Coinbase premium at -7.2%, shorts winning the L/S battle 57/43 — retail is nervous, institutions are quiet ▸ 𝗘𝗧𝗙 𝗙𝗟𝗢𝗪 Friday logged $145.7M net outflows led by FBTC, but the 6-week inflow streak remains intact — one bad day doesn't break the trend ▸ 𝗦𝗘𝗖/𝗣𝗢𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗬 White House digital assets report dropped; SEC hinting at new "innovation pathway" rules — dusting off 1990s market structure fixes for a 2026 problem ▸ 𝗕𝗜𝗡𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘/𝗟𝗡 Binance resumed BTC withdrawals and is eyeing Lightning integration — good news if it actually ships ▸ 𝗠𝗘𝗠𝗣𝗢𝗢𝗟 Fees nearly empty: next block clears at 5 sat/vB, drops to sub-1 within three blocks — cheapest on-chain window in months The macro fog is real: 30-year yields at 4.97%, unemployment creeping to 4.3%, and a yield curve that's barely positive. The SEC reaching for 1990s rulebooks while M2 sits at $22.7 trillion is the precise kind of absurdity that makes the fixed-supply argument write itself. ETF outflows on Friday look like profit-taking, not conviction shifts. 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘶𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘴 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘳𝘶𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘹𝘺𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘰𝘯 — 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘱 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘌𝘛𝘍 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵. 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘺.

Mihir Solanki (@CashToWealth) reportedBitcoin retreated below $80,000 after U.S. strikes in Iran, triggering $300 million in futures liquidations. Coinbase posted a $394M net loss in Q1 2026 with revenue down 31% year-over-year. Stablecoins now dominate a $310 billion market, with regulators warning about financial stability risks.

RocketX | 🕵🏿 Swap on 200+ chains (@RocketXexchange) reported📉 Coinbase Q1 2026 results just dropped. $394M net loss. Revenue down 31% YoY. Transaction revenue down 40%. The reason? Traders moved on-chain. Even Coinbase said it: "Everything is moving onchain." But here's what on-chain traders actually need: ❌ Not a CEX with $150 withdrawal fees ❌ Not a DEX aggregator that misses non-EVM chains ❌ Not 5 different apps for 5 different chains ✅ One app. CEX + DEX. 200+ chains. 500+ exchanges. ✅ Best rates. Optional privacy. MEV protected. The future is on-chain. RocketX is built for it.💪

_Apollo_ (@Apollo16A) reported@Blair519 My problem is it’s Coinbase…I truly love that fundamentally but dang it’s Coinbase. Also I want to say I really appreciate all the things you post. Do you guys host spaces every weekday?

Mozi Tenma (モジ・テンマ) (@MoziTenma) reported@NMTD8 custody concentration is the real risk. @Coinbase reportedly holds assets for 8+ of the 11 US spot BTC ETFs — estimated $25-30B under one provider. yesterday's 5h outage hit trading. same infra handles custody. if custody locks during a high-vol event, spot ETF redemptions freeze while perp OI is still running. that's the actual mechanism worth worrying about.
-
Colin McMahon (@ColinMc_Mahon) reportedBetter and Coinbase launched a Fannie Mae-backed token mortgage in March. That's the market validating a thesis Milo has been building for three years. The difference: their product uses USDC as a down payment bridge. Milo is Bitcoin native. And we have $100M funded with zero margin calls, through real BTC volatility. The space is moving fast. The borrowers who act early get the best terms.

isaias291.ink (@isaias_291) reportedAWS integrated Coinbase's x402 into Amazon Bedrock AgentCore for onchain USDC payments on @base. 1 million AWS business customers with native access to AI agent payments in stablecoin. 90% of the onchain agent volume was already in the Base before that. This number will grow.
-
Daniel Agu (@Niyel_Agu) reportedBetween May 5th and 8th, Coinbase pivoted to an "AI-native" structure, laid off 14% of its staff, and then faced a 7-hour service outage. While the official cause was an AWS failure, the correlation is a loud observation for the industry.
-
Cur8or_Cyclops_Tech (@cur8orofearth) reported@brian_armstrong @grok please explain all you know about how this happens, an overheating room affecting only Coinbase, and theorize which datacenter of AWS has this possible issue given that no other site on the internet was affected.

Mandy B Rwa 🐂 (@InMandyB) reported@HarryTran_RWA Was looking at @KAIO_xyz $kaio they did horribly, price is down also too overvalued despite direct coinbase listing Looking to see if they have any product.. or another money grab in the name of #rwa
-
LetsCodeTogether (@LetsCodeTogethe) reportedPayPal just cut 20% of staff. Coinbase cut 14%. Both said the same thing: "We're moving to smaller, AI-augmented teams." This isn't a future problem. This is happening right now. The people who learn AI tools today won't be the ones replaced tomorrow. What are you doing about it?
-
Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz) reported@Pragmatic_Eng For those asking “what caused the outage:” it was an AWS zone going down and Coinbase not having AZ failovers in place
-
Kris Sato (@kris_nakamoto) reportedCoinbase blames AWS for their 4-hour crypto trading outage. Always an external scapegoat when $COIN users can't trade. Centralized exchanges are just cloud-dependent middlemen. This exposes the core fragility of trusting them. We need true decentralization.
