Bitcoin just hit a new all-time high of $111,999, and part of the reason may surprise you — Coinbase had an outage. Instead of scaring investors, the downtime got traders excited, with many seeing it as a sign that a big move was coming. And they were right.
Coinbase Crash Sparks Rally
On Thursday, during Asian trading hours, Bitcoin broke past $111,000. Coinbase went down at the same time, and that made many in the crypto community on X (formerly Twitter) think something big was about to happen. Some even joked that Coinbase outages usually mean the market is about to pump — and that’s what happened.
One popular user, CryptoCurb, posted: "Coinbase is down. OGs know what this means. Full…Send is loading." Others agreed, calling it a bullish signal.
Despite Coinbase’s issues, Bitcoin kept climbing, rising 2.5% in 24 hours, and setting a new price record on Binance.
Big Money Is Coming In Through ETFs
While traders were watching Coinbase, institutional investors were buying big. On July 9, Bitcoin ETFs saw $218 million in net inflows — the fifth day in a row of positive movement. Ethereum also pulled in over $211 million.
This shows that big investors are feeling confident about crypto. Experts say this is partly because there's more regulatory clarity now and because Bitcoin is becoming a normal part of investment portfolios.
One user said it best: “Coinbase is down, while BTC has $4 billion volume in ETFs today. Absolutely mental! Looks like a huge send is inbound!”
Coinbase Downtime Becomes a Meme
Coinbase outages have become a weird part of crypto culture. Instead of causing panic, they now get treated like bullish signs. Some people even joke that they might be timed on purpose (though there’s no proof of that).
Coinbase’s own Viktor Bunin made light of it, saying: “We’re only going down at $200k, not this measly pit stop.” Coinbase even tweeted just the ₿ (Bitcoin symbol) during the outage — a move fans took as a wink to the price surge.
What’s Next?
The crypto world is split: some think outages are a serious issue, while others believe they’re just part of the Bitcoin hype cycle. Still, both retail traders and big investors seem to agree — momentum is building.
And with possible rate cuts from the Fed in the future, Bitcoin could climb even more. If ETF inflows stay strong and platforms like Coinbase keep playing a major role, the road ahead could be exciting.
In Short:
-
Bitcoin hit $111K+ as Coinbase went offline — again.
-
Traders saw the outage as bullish and jumped in.
-
Institutional investors poured in money through ETFs.
-
Coinbase responded with humor, boosting the mood.
-
Bitcoin’s future looks strong thanks to growing demand and market optimism.
