Coinbase service really a suck! And it happens too often. Coinbase is always down when prices dip, because they lose money if they sell cheap. Triggered a flash crash for the entire crypto market!!
LOL. I don't think so Smiley) It's one out of the best exchanges and web wallet for now. This case only happen about 1 or 2 in a month or two. I think it's normal. If you don't want to use Coinbase I think you should change to other wallet like Electrum Wink

Just call Coinbase for help... oh wait, I forgot that they play a "we have no one to help you" message and hang up without even offering you the option to leave a message.   

So then just email them... oh wait, I forgot that they don't respond to emails.

So then just pray.

I was going to buy now during the fall but no sites that I use work. I read this also happens a lot, can anybody enlighten me with some knowledge? Smiley
They are not the only exchanges that aren't working properly for now. If I'm not mostaken, most of the exchanges and even the local ones are under attack.

I don't know the reason behind this attack as its unusual that all of them are experiencing the same problem at the same time.

The website is under maintenance. The management of coinbase is constantly updating the status of the maintenance activity. Check the below link,

https://status.coinbase.com

I see no reason to worry as because the website was facing uptime issue with their servers due to increased load of new members. I don't use kraken, so probably some other member can update you about it.
