Problems for crypto exchanges while BTC moves towards $9000

There were problems for crypto exchange users like Coinbase who saw the service suffer some interruptions yesterday afternoon. 

The market is pumping and the service is not available: a nightmare.

The company specifies that these are connection issues, as described on the status page of America’s largest cryptocurrency exchange.

The outage, as reported in a support tweet, only affected users’ ability to access Coinbase and Coinbase Pro, but did not affect trading via APIs (links to external platforms).

Kraken also reported some connection problems with its API last Wednesday but said that its platform returned to normal operations by 18:56 UTC without creating problems for its users on the platform.

Meanwhile, BTC moves above $9,000 without asking anyone’s permission. Connection problems seem to be minimal for those used to them but a few minutes out of the markets in the investment industry can mean a lot to those who trade as a job.

American companies, more than others, are suffering from the structural difficulties caused by the lockdown caused by Coronavirus

As much as the industry is at the top in terms of smart working, this doesn’t mean that solving technical problems remotely, or getting a response from someone who may have found hardware malfunctions, is easy. 

Diversification on crypto exchanges

For those who move with important figures in these structures, it is essential to diversify the platforms, as well as the portfolio. 

As the famous saying of Cervantes in Don Quixote goes:

“Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”

The omelette is made thanks to hackers, technical problems or major internal company fraud. In a volatile market like the cryptocurrency market, time is money, a lot of it.
