Binance is down for 2 hours

[bbc.reporter]

I do not think that a downtime this long has occured in the past on the exchange. According to Binance, there was a disk issue in one cluster. Binance also mentioned that it will be fixed shortly. However, it has been 2 hours. Should this be concerning or is the skeptical me being anxious again?



Disk issue with one cluster. Will be fixed shortly. Thank you for your understanding.

Should not have sent the last tweet. Slapping myself now.

I do not think there are anyting to get anxious. A routin maintainance is very common.

Getting anxious is fair if this is Coinbase :-P

Two hours down means little, the website is still up and their cold wallet is still untouched so normally no reason to worry.
If you really want to get anxious then ask yourself how would a "disk issue with one cluster" bring down the whole system, probably there is something far worse there and as always he is trying to downplay it by lying, this guy can't be sincere even on the smallest thing.
Anyhow doubt it's a hack, things like this happen, kraken is the lastest one to have experienced it.

Don't use only one exchange call it Binance or whatever else but have some alternative options for cases like this when one of them is having issues.
Now Binance had issue with disk cluster but they are also reaching limits for how many customers they can accept, and at any time it can go down again when Bitcoin goes over 50k.
Safest thing is just holding BTC that is If you are not some active daily trader.
