Of course you should , it's your money on the line . that's why you should never keep your money in an online wallet/exchange . https://status.coinbase.com/ "Identified - We have identified a connectivity issue with our primary database server, resulting in unplanned website downtime. Further updates will be provided shortly. " Something simillar happened Last week to them , it's not going too good . Title: Re: Coinbase is down. Makes me nervous...... Post by: Victor Beckham on July 13, 2015, 11:42:48 AM CoinBase is a wallet/shop that does not give you your own private key, which makes it vulnerable. You should use wallet (online/offline) that allows you to access your own private key and exchanges like LocalBitcoins.com or 100bit.co.in (http://www.100bit.co.in) are always preferred over centralized shops like CoinBase. At least you wont lose your KYC details to some notorious hacker, even if their database gets hacked.

Just wait for some time and it's gonna be OK. Title: Re: Coinbase is down. Makes me nervous...... Post by: Scamc0p on July 13, 2015, 11:56:34 AM Noticed that now. It is faster now and received my payment quicker then usual.
update: It is down once again. Coinbase is currently offline No cached version is available. The most likely causes: •The server is down for maintenance •There may be a network problem •The site may be experiencing excessive load I would imagine from everyone logging in all at once, it is overloading their servers. Way to stress test them guys! Title: Re: Coinbase is down. Makes me nervous......

Should I be concerned about my money?? It's back up again. There is no need to worry about that. Still you shouldn't hold your money in exchanges. Title: Re: Coinbase is down. Makes me nervous......
