Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Untamed Adam 🐺 (@adamagb) reported@Deroidz ETF not Coinbase Coinbase will randomly suspend your account and there’s no customer support to fix it
-
crypto (@3060tistock) reported@Credib1eGuy Always get shouted down for saying it, but for 95%+ of participants it is safer to keep crypto on kraken/coinbase or in ETFs. Most people sadly have a much higher chance of losing their crypto by ******* up self custody than losing it via a reputable custodian

Vault SentryX Recovery HQ (@VaultsentryHQ) reported@KevinWa50091906 I came across your post about your Coinbase account being emptied in an instant. That must have been incredibly frustrating, especially after being told it was your fault. The transaction details may still support recovery efforts. I can examine the available records and help work toward recovering the stolen assets.

MacAngler (@MacAngler00) reported@kenkohpilot First time I on-boarded at CoinBase they froze my funds for 60 days. No customer support. Just wait. Haven’t used them since.

ImJGalt2 (@imjgalt2) reportedI was encouraged to buy a Coldcard Q in early 2025 by some X and YouTube Bitcoin personalities to take sovereign control of my bitcoin and get it off exchanges. I was told they were using my bitcoin to manipulate prices and of course “not your keys, not your bitcoin…” I did it because I was tired of Coinbase and didn’t trust them not to rehypothecate my BTC to short sellers or find risky ways to monetize my holdings while acting as my custodian. Since then I did my own research and have become a big fan of @River. I've been using them to buy bitcoin for at least a year now. I like them because of their verified holdings, easy-to-read brokerage statements, fair pricing for recurring DCA orders, great customer service, ability to park fiat and earn 3.3% on my direct deposits payable in BTC, supercharged options for DCA when the market is down, 2FA options, ForceField 5 day lockdown, Pay on Death beneficiary options for estate planning, bill pay capabilities, and the fact that I can have personal, business, and trust accounts with them. So when I saw late Thursday evening about all of the issues with the MK3, I figured it was a good time to move my cold storage BTC to River and would reach out to them Friday morning since my Coldcard Q wasn’t at risk. Come to find out later that the CEO at Coinkite was a liar and incompetent when he said my ColdCard Q was not affected! Thankfully River was able to get a new Trust account opened early Friday morning and even offered to stay on the line while I transferred in my BTC. I did not make them do that, but it was a nice offer. I figured they were busy helping others in a similar position. Their app is really good and it even acknowledged my pending incoming transfer within seconds of me approving the Coldcard Q/Sparrow transaction. It later alerted me after the 3rd confirmation that it was a done deal. Let me tell you the peace of mind I had once I had taken care of that. Now that my BTC is on River, I’m thinking about harvesting a tax loss on some BTC I bought higher than today’s prices... Which leads me to asking @Leishman: would you consider further improving your offering with a low-cost Tax Loss order? Here’s my idea: Someone buys BTC on River months ago. Price drops. They want to book the tax loss but of course stay in the Bitcoin position. Because Bitcoin is treated as property (not a security) under IRS Notice 2014-21, the wash-sale rules do not apply. You can sell and immediately rebuy without the 30-day disallowance that applies to stocks and $IBIT and $FBTC Per Grok, the economic substance doctrine still exists, the order needs to be structured carefully so it has real economic effect and isn’t purely artificial. Doing a manual sell + rebuy on River today is expensive. On 1 BTC (~$63k) the 1% fee plus typical spreads (~0.25% on the buy and ~0.50% on the sell) can easily cost $1,000–$1,700 just to formalize the loss. What if River offered a dedicated “tax harvest & rebuy” order designed to be compliant? • Client selects the amount of BTC and their specific lots they want to sell • System sells those lots at market and automatically rebuys the same amount of BTC in one seamless order (or after a short non-cancellable delay) • Charge a lower rate at maybe 10 bps for Bitcoin originally bought on River (a nice perk for existing clients) and 20 bps for BTC that came from elsewhere • Use actual market pricing with a modest spread so there is genuine economic substance • Optionally restrict execution to lower-volatility periods so the price exposure is real but controlled/predictable Moreover, allow clients to place it as a standing limit order. For example, they can set it at $59k or x% lower than current market, so that if price ever reaches that level, the system automatically executes the sell + rebuy on the selected lots and books the loss. No need to watch the market or rush the trade. Because River is kinda on both sides of the trade there’s limited market risk for you. Just a clean, low-cost order type for sophisticated clients who understand the tax treatment, while still respecting the IRS rules. This feels like a natural loyalty feature for people who already bought their coins on River… or picked you to custody their Bitcoin after almost losing it because of a douchebag arrogant CEO who believes his own BS. Yeah @nvk I’m talking to you. This could also be a way for River to monetize some of the Bitcoin that came in during the “CCapocalypse” from account holders who may only be temporary clients while they learn multi-sig and source perfectly balanced Casino dice.

Carter Vance (@CarterVanceUSA) reportedStaring at this chart with pure dread! 🫣 $BTC just dumped to $62.4K on weak Coinbase earnings. Do the bears drag us down to $62K before the week ends? Drop your bets! 👇

space Ξ (@spacexbt) reportedcoinbase biggest money printer is the thing they look down on blockchain rewards are their largest revenue segment > 13 straight quarters at number one > bigger than their stablecoin business > bigger than interest income what drives base activity? degens trading memecoins and tech coins (trenches) the same people coinbase leadership treats like a nuisance in every earnings call, yet base processed $32 trillion in stablecoin transfers last year you don't get to farm degens for volume and act like you're above them

mrpicule.eth (@MrPicule) reportedBitMEX, BitMart, and AscendEX all shut down this month. On-chain DEXs are making the same structural mistake that killed them Three centralized exchanges dead in July. AscendEX on the 1st, BitMEX on the 23rd, BitMart on the 26th. The common take is "bear market cleanup, weak CEXs die, this is healthy." And it is. But the reason they died matters more than the fact that they died Every one of them ran the same model: build your own matching engine, bootstrap your own liquidity, acquire users fast enough to cover the overhead. When the user flow slowed down the economics collapsed. You can't sustain an entire exchange stack on thin volume Here's the part nobody in defi wants to hear: most on-chain DEXs are running the exact same playbook Count the perp DEXs right now - 150+. Count the spot DEXs across every L2 - 500+ if you include uniswap forks. Every single one bootstraps its own liquidity from scratch. Every one fragments the same pool of traders across yet another isolated venue. The only difference from the CEXs that just died is that the liquidity is in smart contracts instead of a company's bank account The result is the same: thin books, wide spreads, poor fills, and a race to acquire users before the treasury or incentive budget runs out. When incentives dry up, volume migrates, and the venue slowly dies. We've watched this cycle play out dozens of times already in defi and nobody connects it to what's happening on the CEX side right now The CEXs that survived (Binance, Coinbase, OKX) survived because they hit enough scale to sustain the overhead. The ones that didn't hit that scale died. In defi the threshold is even harder to reach because you're competing for the same liquidity across hundreds of venues simultaneously The fix isn't "build a better DEX". The fix is stop rebuilding the exchange layer from scratch every time. Shared matching infrastructure that multiple frontends plug into. One deep order book instead of 500 thin ones. The frontend is the brand and the UX. The execution and liquidity layer underneath is shared This changes the economics completely. A new DEX doesn't need to bootstrap liquidity from zero. It plugs into existing depth from day one. If one frontend dies, the liquidity doesn't disappear because it was never locked to that single venue. Users aren't stranded the way BitMart's 13 million users are stranded right now The CEX shutdowns this month aren't just a CEX problem. They're a warning about what happens to any exchange model built on isolated infrastructure. Defi isn't immune to that just because the contracts are on-chain What would it take for defi to move from "every project builds its own exchange" to "every project plugs into shared exchange infrastructure"?

ProphetSmit (@ProphetSmit) reported@rektmando @pantheonvaults @educkcoin What happens if you select a phantom sol address I don’t have access to anymore. Can I deposit with a new one and that one will be chosen? I’ve mostly deposited through Coinbase:(
-
Andrés D. (@J_ANDr3S) reported@Molson_Hart The real problem is “trust me, bro” influencers pushing people into self-custody they don’t understand. For those unwilling or unable to study it, Coinbase is a totally safe option.
-
AnonCryptoGuy 🦇🔊 (@AnonCryptoGuy2) reported@rostyketh Because Coinbase seems to be conflicted about its support of Ethereum. Bitcoin is the leader but it isn't leading, Ethereum is. So you get this weird conflict where Ethereum is doing everything new, but people don't want to support it because they hold Bitcoin.

Odogwu Herself (@IdaraImeh) reportedEvery payment protocol eventually asks the same question. Not "how much" but "who." x402 solved the how much part beautifully. An AI agent hits a paywall, pays in stablecoins, done, no card form, no human needed. Coinbase built it, over 40 major payment companies joined the foundation behind it. But the protocol was built to ask nothing about the payer. No ID, no account, nothing. That's fine until an agent tries to buy something regulated, and suddenly there's no answer to who's actually paying. @Concordium built that answer directly into the same payment step, with zero exposed personal data. Curious which problem gets solved first, scale or trust?

Jsnow (@JSnowETH) reported@clementetv_ Happy your money is safe for now, but @coinbase leaked my data to scammers. They knew everything about my identity, down to the balances I was holding. Got scammed because of it. Be safu brother
-
TechManTy 👌 (@TechManTy) reported@HawkCryptoTech @krakenfx @coinbase sure, thing is laptop firmware gets exploited. laptop operating systems get compromised or end of life. routers can get compromised. lots of things that require the latest updates and such. Maybe make a wallet, write down the seed phrase or etch it on metal, put it in your safe.

Sebastián (@gvtcontractor) reported@BowTiedMara Yesterday morning was one of the most stressful of my life. My cold card is locked in a safe in USA and I’m in Colombia. Thank god I had my recovery words and was able to move to Coinbase. Feel awful for those that lost everything doing things the “right way”
-
Max Anderson (@MaxAnderson) reported@FoamOnTheRunway There are risks no matter which way you go For the vast majority of BTC holders, the risk of a counterparty specifically like coinbase or one of the major ETFs is generally lower than the risks of human error + hacks w/ most methods of cold storage
-
Peanutz (@56km0dem) reported@BTCBreadMan True, you could still lose a portion if Coinbase or Fidelity ever got hacked, but they literally have entire teams working 24/7 just on security. That’s a very different risk profile than pure self custody.
-
Jk (@bitcoinsolsui) reported@dotkrueger Fred I agree with you and I am a Bitcoin long term holder and bull. My issue now is there wallets. I am not a techie and if coldcard can get hacked by cant ledger or trezor. I am thinking of moving it all back to Coinbase until someone can tell me how to make it secure.

₿lade Runner (@BRunner2040) reported@Fatal982 With CoinBase currently shut down… This could be very frustrating to Bitcoin holders. Great point Fatal 👍

Strictly4MyBitcoin (@IBIT4Life) reported@A5T3R0lD Why are you guys letting Victor continue to spew nonsense? He's saying publicly traded companies Coinbase, Blackrock, etc are all frauds. The biggest companies in the world are frauds and 2 guys in hoodies are ok? WTF? @BritishHodl @TheSamsPodcast

Alen B (@AlenBarb) reported@KyTosta @TheBTCTherapist Bitstamp is this true? Help a guy here? Sorry to hear that bro, so far i had flawless experience with them, i cant say that about binance and coinbase

Arnie (@ArnaldoSwen) reportedClarity Act Problem with the Clarity Act is has too many holes for illegal activities. Act not transparent and strong enough. Crypto world wants it because it favors their own interests. Dimons colored word for Coinbase CEO ‘ He’s full of ****’. Dimon uses many colored words at his top executive meetings.

Omar (@TheOneandOmsy) reportedReally a crypto bear market when the largest publicly listed crypto exchange $COIN drops *Trading Volume* as a reported key metric despite “Consumer Transaction Revenue” being their single largest revenue item From their Q2 filing: “Beginning in the second quarter of 2026, we no longer include Trading Volume as a key metric. As our business has evolved to support multiple asset classes, we believe the prior Trading Volume metric, which focused on spot crypto volume, no longer reflects the breadth of our business. Additionally, we do not believe that a total trading volume metric would fully represent the business given the differences in economics across our diversified trading products. We believe that metrics focused on users and assets are better operational indicators, as they measure the trust customers place in Coinbase and our ability to attract and retain users.”

Asymmetric Insight (@billheckler1) reported@EquityDiamonds A Bitcoin off-on-ramp set up would be an exchange in a Western country where you can safely buy and sell Bitcoin (as described in the white paper). Something like Orange Gateway of scale with public audited financial statements. So buyers and sellers can confidently convert BSV at scale. Calvin tried to do this with Coinsquare in Canada but ultimately failed. ***** One would imagine that if Satoshi had access to USD $65 billion he'd make sure that such an on/off ramp existed. If only to manage his own private liquidity. One of the reasons I never bought Core Coin in the early days is that I did not trust the early anonymous private exchanges that I investigated (Gox, Quadriga, and pre-IPO Coinbase) enough to send them a check up front. I would regard the establishment of a credible on-off ramp by a creidble party as a major BSV buy signal.

bill smith (@billsmith181172) reportedand to cash it out, you still use some sketchy exchange like coinbase based out of the us virgin islands or some ****. and then you proooobably srill get tazed unless you were already rich w connections to top tier lawyers and tax people.

Chase (@Cryptoguru911) reported@yourfriendSOMMI @coinbase Yep!!! Please fix this.

plantsy (@plantsyMN) reported@btcfeen @LPCapitalChi And to think if you just left all your bitcoin on Coinbase you would have never had an issue. Makes you wonder if the Bitcoin ethos is worth it.

Rareș (@Raress96_) reported@waleswoosh You can't keep BTC on any self custody wallet because doing a transaction might take forever I just hold in exchange, I use Coinbase I don't see a problem, hard to go bankrupt and if they do it would have affected the whole ecosystem anywah
