If you are seeing “Coinbase” cryptocurrency exchange website offline, well you aren’t the only one. It appears that the Coinbase website and App have started to go offline time to time with thousands of users. It’s unclear what could be the reason for the website to lag. However, it could be due to massive traffic being hit on the Coinbase website.
For high traffic websites, powerful servers are needed in order to hold such large amount of load. Mostly when thousands of users are using it to buy and sell BitCoin, Ethereum or LiteCoin. If that’s the case, we hope Coinbase is working on its servers for better user performance. After all, they do earn per transaction whenever a user adds credit from their cards to their Coinbase wallets.
