    This actually shows the potential of $COIN .. @brian_armstrong chose to build infrastructure first whereas $HOOD and Hyperliquid went straight to monetization (customer facing products and go-to-market). @coinbase now desperately needs to backfill customer facing products (actually just fill the gaps) .. and win hearts and minds. no pressure @catferdon

    @mdudas @coinbase The skepticism for $COIN is primarily driven by poor resource allocation decisions: a few highlights from how Coinbase spent the money that became the $394m loss: $2.9b for Deribit $375m for Cobie’s Echo (which had facilitated $200m in raises total, lol) $25m for an NFT to revive a podcast that mocks their CEO $25m to break their SF lease in 2023, then signed a 150k sq ft SF lease in 2025 $25m + on Super Bowl ads (the 2026 one was rated dead last) $400m on a hack because they outsourced support to bribery-prone contractors

    @RealSOGAN @coinbase @cobie Nah. I'm thinking more along the lines of oh you're down 400M, well, maybe you shouldn't have spent 400M on a product you're not using or doing anything with. lol

  • 0xAmberCT

    Looks like @coinbase is going through a heavy moment. Q1 2026 report came out with a net loss of nearly 400m USD. Right after that, the platform went down for more than 5 hours, bringing trading to a standstill. The cause came from an AWS cloud issue. The timing made everything more sensitive, especially after a 14% staff cut and bold talks about AI replacing engineering roles. Confidence is now the key question. Imo, if Coinbase wants to stay on top in the US market, restoring stability and trust has to move fast before competitors step in.

    @CoinbaseSupport @coinbase How are you claiming that system issues were resolved and yet all money that was sent to Coinbase is missing?? I did an instant deposit at 11:51PM and it just never arrived. Coinbase is trying to blame @CashSupport. Can I get this resolved?

    Not just a Coinbase problem. A CEX problem. Centralization is fundamentally more complex than just using the decentralized tech itself. And on top of that, everything is way too opaque, so there's no accountability. Hyperliquid.

    Coinbase experienced a significant trading outage on May 7-8, 2026 (lasting roughly 5-7 hours), primarily due to an Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure failure in the US-East-1 region (Northern Virginia data center). • Cause: Overheating in a single AWS data center (related to a “thermal event” or cooling system failure). AWS had to bring additional cooling capacity online, which took time and affected multiple availability zones. • Impact on Coinbase: • Degraded performance and inability to buy, sell, or trade normally. • The exchange switched to “Cancel Only” mode (users could cancel orders but not place new ones) and later auction mode in some cases. • Trading across interfaces (website, apps, Advanced Trade) was disrupted. • Some users reported issues with sends/receives on certain networks (e.g., Solana, ALEO delays), though buys/sells and fiat transfers were often less affected. • Timeline (approximate, PDT): • Started around May 7 evening (e.g., ~18:53 PDT investigating AWS issue). • Resolved with full market re-enablement by ~00:49 PDT on May 8.

    COINBASE TRADING HALTED FOR NEARLY SEVEN HOURS AFTER AWS DATA CENTER OVERHEATS Coinbase suspended trading for nearly seven hours on Friday after overheating at an Amazon Web Services data center in Northern Virginia knocked out core exchange services. AWS identified the failure in availability zone use1-az4 within its US-EAST-1 region, where elevated temperatures caused a cascade of hardware impairments that spread across multiple availability zones. Coinbase said its systems are designed to withstand a single-zone failure but were unable to maintain operations when multiple zones were affected simultaneously. The exchange placed all markets in “cancel only” mode, during which resting orders remained cancelable but new market and limit orders were not accepted. Coinbase then transitioned to auction mode before fully restoring trading. The outage began at approximately 1 AM UTC on May 8 and was fully resolved by around 8 AM UTC. Customer funds were not at risk during the disruption. The outage came hours after Coinbase’s Q1 2026 earnings report, in which the company posted a $394 million net loss and announced a 14% workforce reduction. COIN shares were down 2.53% in pre-market trading on Friday before markets opened. Coinbase said it will conduct a full investigation once AWS publishes its official retrospective.

    AI Is Not Stealing Jobs. It's exposing which companies were already broken.📊 This week's headlines are a paradox - Coinbase cut 14% of its workforce The Headline? AI-native transformation. @Gartner_inc reveals that 87% of 2025 layoffs are actually driven by macro factors and over-hiring — not AI productivity. Teams are rebranding "Restructuring" as an AI Story. #FutureofWork #Layoffs #Jobs2026

    Coinbase just cut 14% of its workforce. The CEO says non-developers are shipping code with AI help now. The exchange that wants you to trade on their platform can't keep its own systems up for 5+ hours. If they're automating themselves out of jobs, what exactly are they selling you? Maybe being your own bank isn't so crazy after all.

    Bitcoin's block header has a 32-bit ***** — 4.3 billion possibilities. Modern ASIC miners burn through the entire space in under a millisecond. They have to fiddle the coinbase to get a fresh Merkle root, then start over. The ***** field was never enough.
