Coinbase, FanDuel, and Chartbeat experienced issues due to an AWS outage that began on May 7. As the outage continued into its second day, Amazon reported ongoing recovery efforts but noted they were slower than anticipated. Full recovery is expected to take several hours. DownDetector showed a spike in AWS problems starting at approximately 8 p.m. ET on Thursday, with issues resurfacing around 4 p.m. ET on Friday. The outage primarily affected the US-EAST-1 Region, temporarily disrupting operations on FanDuel, Coinbase, and Chartbeat. Coinbase attributed service disruptions to increased temperatures in the affected AWS service, assuring users that their funds were safe. The previous significant AWS outage impacting the US-EAST-1 Region occurred in October 2025, affecting services like Amazon, Roblox, HBO Max, and more. Regular internet outages have been frequent in the past year, often linked to AWS, a major provider of cloud hosting and internet services. Mashable is reaching out to AWS for further information.
