So, you thought your crypto portfolio was safe and sound? Think again. On April 15, AWS decided to take a nap, causing chaos across major crypto exchanges like Binance, Kucoin, and MEXC. A whole lot of services took a hit—12, to be exact. Even the mighty Binance and Kucoin couldn’t escape, halting withdrawals because, well, Amazon Web Services (AWS) was being… shall we say, *unreliable*?
We are aware of an issue impacting some services on the #Binance platform due to a temporary network interruption in the AWS data center.
Some orders are still successful, but some are failing. If users failed, they may keep retrying.Our team is working closely with AWS to…

Binance tried to calm everyone down, telling us that they were in deep talks with AWS to fix this mess. Spoiler: withdrawals are back up, but some poor souls are still struggling to trade, thanks to the slow recovery. Binance says it’s watching the situation like a hawk, but the slow poke nature of AWS means patience is key. 👀
And if you thought Binance was the only one panicking, guess again. Kucoin and MEXC also joined the club of disappointment. MEXC users reported all sorts of annoyances like bizarre candlestick charts, failed order cancellations, and delays in asset transfers. But hey, at least they’re “safe,” right? No word on their compensation plan, but they’re “working on it”…we’ll see. 🙄
Dear MEXCer,
We are sorry to inform you that due to a service disruption with AWS, some users may currently experience issues on the MEXC App and Web platform, including：
Abnormal candlestick charts
Failed order cancellations
Delays in asset transfers for spot trading…— MEXC (@MEXC_Official) April 15, 2025
Let’s talk about the other crypto platforms that were also thrown into the dumpster fire—Coinstore, Gate.io, and DeBank. You thought you could escape, didn’t you? Think again. Even the shiny Rabby Wallet and DeBank app weren’t spared. Both teams assured users their funds were fine… *for now*. 😂
“We are seeing initial signs of recovery but continue to monitor and work toward full recovery. Other AWS services are also impacted by this issue, and are also observing recovery. We will provide another update within the next 30-60 minutes,” AWS decided to grace us with this little tidbit.
Because, you know, AWS is the backbone of so many companies, so when they crash, it’s like the entire internet takes a nap. 🙃
