Published by

Coinbase experienced major service disruptions after increased temperatures impacted the use1-az4 Availability Zone in Amazon’s AWS US-EAST-1 region. The exchange confirmed it would gradually restore operations by first placing all markets into “Cancel Only” mode before re-enabling trading. The outage came shortly after Coinbase reported weaker-than-expected earnings, intensifying scrutiny over the platform’s infrastructure resilience. The incident also highlighted the risks of heavy reliance on centralized cloud providers during periods of elevated crypto market activity.
