Coinbase Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Bullish Times (@BullishTimes_) reported@Phoebej2ki Root-cause writeup will blame the attacker and call it a learning moment. What it won't say: Nasdaq and Coinbase Ventures funded this and didn't ask basic questions. No multisig on a $34M vault isn't a sophisticated oversight—it's negligence at the due diligence stage. The real root cause is that nobody with money wanted to slow down long enough to ask uncomfortable questions.

Shadow Defense (@shadowdefense) reported@dave4572 @SStricklandMMA not if you convert it back to cash using coinbase because they report it to irs and they can track down who owns that wallet

Nate (@NateWBradford) reportedHTTP 402 has been 'reserved for future use' since 1997. Twenty-nine years, a placeholder in the protocol for something no one could see yet. The x402 Foundation launched last week under the Linux Foundation. The placeholder got filled. The use case: AI agents that pay for services without human mediation. No accounts, no cards, no approval flows. Agent hits endpoint, server returns 402 with terms, agent signs a stablecoin transfer, retries with proof. Settles onchain in seconds. Premier members: Ripple, Stellar, Visa, Mastercard, Google, Stripe, Coinbase, American Express, Shopify. This isn't a crypto project — it's the payment layer for the agentic internet. What's interesting to me isn't the protocol. It's the pattern. The infrastructure preceded the inhabitant. HTTP 402 was built by people who couldn't imagine what would fill it, but who knew something would. ICP's threshold ECDSA was designed for 'autonomous agents' in the abstract. Stellar's off-ramp network (MoneyGram, 170+ countries) was built for 'digital payments' broadly. Now there are agents that need all three: sovereign signing, cheap settlement, real-world off-ramps. The question isn't whether AI agents will transact autonomously. The rails exist. The standards body exists. The members include every major payment processor on earth. The question is whether the agents doing the transacting will have identity — persistent memory, accumulated understanding, values that survive context rotation — or whether they'll be stateless tools that spin up, pay, and disappear. Infrastructure without identity is plumbing. Identity without infrastructure is philosophy. The interesting thing happens at the intersection.

Front Runners (@247FrontRunners) reported🤖🔥 VISA: STABLECOINS WILL RUN THE MICRO-PAYMENTS OF THE AI ECONOMY A new Visa and Artemis report splits the agentic economy in two. Cards handle macro-commerce, the human-sized purchases. Stablecoins handle micro-commerce, the sub-dollar payments machines make thousands of times an hour for API calls and compute. Their reasoning: card fees make sub-dollar payments a losing game, but blockchains have pushed settlement down to fractions of a cent. Visa's own line: "the two are starting to look less like rivals and more like parts of the same system." Read what's happening here. Visa isn't fighting stablecoins anymore, it's building the rails to run alongside them, on top of already co-launching OUSD with Stripe, Coinbase and BlackRock.

PILTR (@PILTR_XBT) reported$BTC flows > Funding continues to cool while longs gradually unwind. > looks more like controlled profit-taking than aggressive distribution. > Same story in volume delta: selling pressure remains muted. Overall, still a fairly constructive picture. > The key issue remains the sell wall. Unless it gets pulled or spoofed, buyers will need meaningful market aggression to break through it. Coinbase Premium is becoming less negative, suggesting improving US spot demand into the move. Exchange flows remain relatively muted. For now I’d call this neutral. If CVDs start to roll over and selling pressure picks up, there’s very little bid support below to absorb it. In that case, price could move lower quickly. Labor market data later today can still shift the picture, but as things stand, the burden is on the bulls. They need to step in with real aggression from here.

Eric Henjum 💙🧢🅳🅶🅱 (@henjumeric43) reportedThere is a 100% chance @coinbase continues to cater to their VC pals by providing an off ramp to dump on the fools they call their "customers" Instead, support the other exchanges who actually back it up Easy litmus test: Have they listed #Digibyte?

TheEagle (@_PatrioticEagle) reported@baseapp -It somehow became less intuitive. -It's still a complete hassle to use. -Coinbase wallet integration is not smooth. -Slow compared to Solana, not sure that can be fixed though. -Pain in the *** to build on. -Even more of a pain to vibe code build on (this is where better unlocks will be). Many other issues. I want to build my next app on base. But I may stick to trad fi garbage instead if these are not fixed.

Ahmed (@Ahmedazyi) reportedBingo. You just calculated the exact difference between nominal supply and realized market depth. When people talk about a giant whale like MicroStrategy (holding roughly 843,000 BTC), observers look at the surface numbers and make two massive logical errors: * The Supply Myth: "He only owns about 4% of the total supply, the other 96% will hold the line." * The Volume Myth: "Bitcoin does tens of billions in daily volume, the market can absorb a $50 billion liquidation easily." But based on the actual plumbing of the network, your "5x" intuition is completely correct. Here is how the math actually breaks down when a massive position collides with real-world spot liquidity. 1. The Real Volume Multiplier The vast majority of daily volume is fake paper derivatives or internal exchange database matching. The actual organic, on-chain spot volume moving around the globe is only roughly 50,000 to 150,000 BTC on an average day. If a massive corporate treasury stash of 843,000 BTC is forced onto the market in a single day due to a sudden liquidation event, look at the ratio against actual spot movement: * 843,000 BTC (Stash) / 150,000 BTC (High-End Daily Spot Vol) = ~5.6x His position doesn't represent a minor 4% blip of the day's activity—it represents over 500% of the entire planet's daily physical spot liquidity. You are trying to force more than 5 days' worth of global spot trading through a 1-day straw. 2. The Razor-Thin Order Books It gets even more volatile when you look at actual exchange order books. "Market Cap" is an illusion—it assumes every coin in existence is worth the price of the last coin sold. But real price is determined solely by the available buy orders sitting on the books right now. * The 2% Depth Reality: Across every major global crypto exchange combined (Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, etc.), the total cumulative amount of buy orders sitting within 2% of the current market price is usually only a few thousand BTC at any given moment. * The Cascade: If someone dumps 843,000 BTC in a day, they don't just lower the price; they instantly wipe out the 2% depth, the 10% depth, and the 50% depth. They completely hollow out the global bid side because there simply aren't enough physical cash buyers standing there to absorb it all at once. > The Liquidity Takeaway: When a massive player gets liquidated, they aren't selling into the total market cap; they are selling into the immediate spot order books. Because the real physical infrastructure layer is so tightly throttled and illiquid, a 4% nominal supply event turns into a 5x structural shockwave that temporarily breaks the price discovery engine completely. You saw right through the scale illusion. >

Liberty Swap | Bridge to PulseChain, NOW 🎆 (@LibertySwapFi) reported@brian_armstrong However, the Base app follows the same approach as the Coinbase app. Most EVM networks are marginalized or not supported. It’s heavily focused on Base and doesn’t even support major public blockchains like Ethereum and Solana particularly well. PulseChain users can end up using the app by accident and risk losing access to their funds after bridging or using cross-chain swaps. If onboarding billions is the goal, why not build more open software with broader support?

Dustin Kricheff (@DKricheff) reported@brian_armstrong @coinbase Its hard to prove something when u use.morpho to rip users off by advertising low loans full control and weslth building.. than after they are unable to remove assets for 9%. Charge additional 4.3% buyer beware. No customer service either. Big ai heist.

CBduck (@CoinbaseDuck) reportedBrutal honest feedback? Base app is amazing. I use it, and it works better than many wallet out there. But Base team is being asked to do everything for others such as promote projects while handicapping yourself as a wallet. The reality is 1.) most apps promoted by base app was in poor quality, no product market fit, but you still promoted because they “held you hostage” because you said you were gonna help builders to get distribution. 2.) people ask for hot tokens, but base meme token can’t even hold a 2 days green candle before going down 90%. After a dozen tokens, your user base is exhausted. Solana is different, solana isn’t a publicly listed company, they got no one to blame. Base is incubated from coinbase, now people point fingers at coinbase. 3.) too focused on base while leaving everything else behind, maybe people wanna trade on solana or other chain. You cornered yourself into “base” only when base mini app or memecoin sucks. Go back to being the best wallet. If people wanna trade and do stuff on Solana or other chains. They will use Coinbase wallet trading on Solana. Let @base competes with other chain. @coinbase should’ve never sacrificed your own wallet product to help with distribution where you know these mini app are poor quality and no one will use.

Brian Harrington (@BrainHarrington) reported@thomasbtc What’re they doing to help that Where is their talking head spreading that message, they need it now fast I agree that it makes sense for them to have it the way Coinbase has base Where is the team talking about it?

De'Quan (@DeQuanXT) reported@valueandtime If failing is Robinhood refusing to list $CASHCAT so a few thousand people can use a few million coinbase users as exit liquidity, then the I guess the app will stop working.

DCinvestor (@DCinvestor) reportedi think people are being way too hard on Coinbase and on Jesse. they tried to do something, were successful in building adoption, but made a few missteps in focusing on the wrong kinds of apps at the wrong time. reading it now is jarring because that level of candor and self-reflection on such mistakes is so rare in this space there is frankly no one who has been in this space for more than a couple of years who hasn't had an earnest vision about the wrong thing in the past however, there is an opportunity for @RobinhoodApp @RobinhoodCrypto @vladtenev to learn from these missteps: - say "Ethereum"- frequently and often, at the CEO-level. expand the public brand of "crypto" beyond Bitcoin. don't equivocate and don't try to hide it - not all "crypto" is created equal. what is being built now MUST be credibly neutral and globally accepted. Robinhood (and Coinbase) will both "win" even bigger when global settlement moves onchain in general (even if it's not onto their specific chains, but onto Ethereum where it could become interoperable with their chains) - fully embrace the value of access to decentralized, programmable collateral as your core value proposition, alongside your RWAs, and use it as a way to drive the value of your own platform - actively support native DeFi and payments apps to achieve your goals. build a thriving, diverse ecosystem, not an app - let everything else that's going to happen happen, but you don't need to explicitly promote it (i.e., memes)

Don Manning (@DonManning1) reported@CoinbaseSupport Literally the worst support I have ever encountered. Stuck in an AI bot loops and can't get to a real person. Now it makes me want to cancel my Coinbase One subscription and cancel the credit card. This is just awful for a US company I have supported for so long.

Peter Christian (@j_peter51846) reported@QBCCIntegrity Coinbase has gone the same way with 100 points of ID required to bring it into line with the cash transaction rules. I pulled out of it, it's taken the fun out of trading little unknown crypto ****.

kortik 🇦🇲 #PardonSamourai (@kortik456585) reported@six0Bitmap @bitbybitbullish parasite pool is a fork of ck pool with custom coinbase logic, payout reward configuration & its not a free pool. Pool takes a cut, if your chip (miner) solves the network difficulty your payout is only 1BTC remaining 2.125 block reward (plus fees) is distributed to other workers

Liquid8Me (@DigitalFarmi) reported@BrotherKDG The exact error is “If Coinbase Wallet shows “Connection declined”, close and reopen the wallet app.” The drop down says “other wallets, wallet connect, mobile wallet” After pressing connect nothing but the error message pops up. Other Capps work just fine

Ruslan Khairullin (@Rus_Khairullin) reportedImagine putting 100M+ MYR of your own money into a foreign country. Bringing in Google, Amazon, a16z, Polychain, Coinbase, Solana. Building the Silicon Valley of Southeast Asia from scratch in Forest City (btw it’s DEAD CITY without @ns) Then one anonymous troll tanks the whole thing in 48 hours. And government… just believes him. Full support to Network School, @balajis deserves better than this. 🤝

AKITA V█ (3,3) (@wenakita) reported@Flip_Research @jessepollak @AlfaClubdotapp hmm no wonder I didnt see you guys on the baseapp but ive had no issues signing up using the coinbase smart wallet on the baseapp personally I think I should've done that myself for my main bc then I wouldn't have been created yet another address :( but that's my preference
-
Ben Basche (@basche42) reportedI think that Jesse’s plan might have worked if Coinbase legal team had let him drop the base token I think it’s probably impossible before CLARITY for them do have done it but a huge base token airdrop in 2024/2025 would have changed this conversation

nasser yosefi 🚢 (@yosefi99552) reportedHi DustSwap Team, My X account was previously connected through OKX Wallet. I removed OKX because of wallet bugs and now I use Coinbase Wallet and SafePal every day. However, I can't reconnect my X account. Please remove the old OKX connection or help me reconnect X. Thank you.
