Title: can anyone access coinbase today 5/19?
Post by: real_newguy05 on May 19, 2021, 01:48:14 PM
can anyone access coinbase or coinbase pro?   piece of shit is completely offline all morning just when you need it the most as market drops 30%+  cant log in to make any trades. 

what good is an exchange when it keeps going down when you need it the most.

Me either, I can't access the site always shows "access denied" it seems their site is under attack.

Their Coinbase pro seems fine but when trying to log in the result is the same.

Have you tried to use the Coinbase app?



Update: Now it's working fine after the deep and bounce back. It looks like a strategy from Coinbase or they got a large number of users at that time?
Anyway, they never change they doing the same thing as before.

Coinbase down for me too. Coinbase.Pro just has a loading widget.   ::)

This is a total scam. Just like Bitmexs' "overloaded"
When the good opportunity to buy is there. They take away the buy button.

Coinbase in the past have lost my deposits and others, only to magically find them 2 weeks later when price has skyrocketed.
These 'crashes' are deliberate of that I am certain.

Don't trust any exchange.

It happens every time the BTC's price is crashing (never when there is a big pump lol, to believe that it is intended to be so).
We are used with this.
For years, the story is the same when there is a big movement on the price. Crazy that a multi-millions dollars company can't even anticipate a peak in traffic.

not the first time to have happened. the worse part would be if you still sell after you finally accessed the exchange.

the market just isnt this crazy back when knly few institutions coming into crypto, its not good. they are taking away your chance to be millionaires 😬

I've been on Coinbase Pro and Binance.US all morning with no issues.  I just logged into the main Coinbase site, and again, no issues.  It seems like all the major services are hit and miss right now.  Many of these types of threads are popping up all around social media.  Panic sellers and bargain hunters are having field day.

It was probably halting all trading services because of the recent flash crash. A lot of people now are reinvesting, and possibly, a lot of people were liquidated too. I hope everyone can recover or find a better exchange that would suit their needs.

If it halted all trading services, then there would be a gap in the chart.
Someone was trading, just not the general public.

total scam.
Forget Coinbase.
