Amazon Web Services Disruption Affects Binance, KuCoin, and Other Crypto Platforms

In response to reported issues with their cloud service provider Amazon Web Services (AWS), major cryptocurrency exchanges Binance and KuCoin temporarily halted withdrawals from their platforms.

Acknowledging the situation, Binance promptly addressed the problem following an announcement stating, "We are aware of an issue impacting some services due to a temporary network interruption in the AWS data center." Despite this setback, some trade orders were successful for users, while others encountered difficulties. However, Binance managed to restore withdrawal services within a short timeframe after being alerted to the issue.

Notably, users continue to face challenges when attempting to execute trades on both Binance and KuCoin as highlighted in various social media posts.

Moreover, other crypto-related services such as Rabby and DeBank also experienced disruptions linked to the AWS server issues, rendering their functionalities temporarily inaccessible.

Consequently, any interruptions in AWS operations can have ripple effects on companies that rely on its infrastructure for various purposes such as website hosting, application management, and data storage.
