  @eadingleberry @dalibali2 Coinbase downfall should be studied had basically monopoly in the west on crypto exchange for a decade.. during which time they treated customers like **** with absurd fees, outages, and no support. Now they have no moat NOR loyalty customers all moving to banks/brokers lmfao

  And OF COURSE @coinbase uses Indian call centers. Who wants to understand what tech support is saying?

  $NET (Cloudflare) just beat earnings AND lost 24% in the same day. ✅ Revenue +34% YoY ✅ EPS beat ✅ Guidance raised ❌ Fired 1,100 people (20% of staff) Wall Street saw one thing: a company scrambling to catch up on #AI. From my perspective, these big moves often come with lots of problems in the company structure, as Coinbase showed us.

  BTC flipped crowded long overnight — OI and funding both spiked into top-decile territory while liquidations ran hot. Problem: US spot buyers aren't showing up (Coinbase premium near lows). Futures-led rallies without spot backing tend to flush. Watch $82,850

  This is especially frustrating for Coinbase One members. Many of us pay hundreds of dollars per year specifically for premium benefits, including lower or zero trading fees, enhanced rewards, priority support, and account protection. A core expectation of any paid premium service on a trading platform is reliable uptime, proper customer service, and the ability to act when markets require it.

  Compare that with what a swarming super agent can do when it can pass out LLMs to its customers and counterparties and spawn agents to actually with them to consummate P2P deals that do everything that Coinbase does plus a lot more nearly no fee. @veritaseum these guys through Coinbase's last 4 earnings report from a forensic accounting perspective, finding the hidden issues in between the lines, in the trends and the footnotes that most on X would never discover without you. @grok you give it a try, too!

  Why do you freeze customer accounts for no reason? @coinbase

  THE CRYPTO INDUSTRY STILL RUNS ON WEB2 INFRASTRUCTURE On May 7, an Amazon Web Services data center in Northern Virginia overheated. The cooling failure damaged hardware and forced AWS to reroute traffic. 🔴 Coinbase: 7-hour outage on core trading services 🔴 CME Group: impacted 🔴 FanDuel: impacted 🟢 Ethereum $ETH: unaffected 🟢 Bitcoin bitcoin:native: zero downtime ever This is the second AWS-driven Coinbase outage since October 2025 Self-custody does not go offline when a server room gets too hot

  @cgtwts Coinbase went down because chillers in an AWS datacenter overheated. Brian Armstrong walked through the redundancy assumptions that didn't survive the actual physics. CG dropped a clip captioned "the technical team that got fired 2 days ago." The structural read is funnier than the joke and worse than Armstrong is letting on. The receipts. Coinbase architected systems for redundancy across AWS Availability Zones. Implicit assumption: any single AZ can fail and traffic reroutes seamlessly. Actual failure: a physical cooling collapse in one AZ took down hardware faster than rerouting logic could redistribute load. The numbers. AWS operates ~36 active Availability Zones across 12 US regions. Cooling failures are rare but not zero. When they happen, they cascade through hardware in 4-8 hours rather than failing gracefully. Coinbase processes $4-7B in daily transaction volume. An hour of downtime is $170-290M in unprocessed flow plus reputational risk. The structural read. Cloud architecture documentation talks about resilience as if it's a software-only problem. The Coinbase outage is a reminder that infrastructure runs on physics. Pumps fail. Chillers leak. Power supplies die. Most "cloud-native" companies have never run their own physical infrastructure. They lack the reflexes to anticipate failures their cloud provider hides. The honest read. Coinbase didn't fail. The chillers failed. Coinbase's redundancy assumptions failed to model what happens when hardware fails faster than software can reroute. The technical team didn't get fired. The chillers did.

  @MiningRabid @Dynvesto @coinbase They shut me down in 2016. Tried a few times to get my account back. Just a few years ago they sent me a check for the “dust”. I was a little shocked that I got something back. It was fair market value for the scraps I still had on there.

  @saguieig The way Binance Pay works is that they can access services through the Binance marketplace, which allows them to use Uber and other ride-hailing (this is on my model) directly with less fees than using the actual app. However, even if Amazon doesn't use Binance pay because of the scandals, I would think Amazon would not want to miss out on an opportunity, and thus goes to other brands like Coinbase that are actively trying to grow out their Coinbase Business service, especially in LATAM. Let me get back to you though on Amazon though.

  @1914ad @grok How many rooms are in a single AWS datacenter ? What the probability it was the coinbase one taking the outage of over heating ?
