Update, Feb. 28,&nbsp;6:53 pm UTC: Coinbase services appear to be returning with users reporting seeing expected figures after their accounts previously showed a zero balance due to the bug.&nbsp;
A <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-price-hits-64k-as-traders-anticipate-new-all-time-high-before-halving">surging Bitcoin price between 5:00 and 6:00 pm UTC</a>&nbsp;on Feb. 28 may have caused a disruption in Coinbase services, with widespread reports of accounts suddenly showing a zero balance beginning to populate social media.

The price of Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>) surged above $64,000 in the minutes leading up to the incident. However, as of the time of publication, it has retreated to $61,400.
Coinbase (COIN) stock followed a similar trend. As Bitcoin nearly closed in on its current all-time high of $69,045, COIN reached $211 a share, just shy of its 52-week high of $212. It has since fallen back to $202 at the time of publication.&nbsp;
COIN’s all-time-high of $357 coincided with Bitcoin’s, which was set on Nov. 10, 2021.
It’s unclear at this time what caused the issue, but as some users have pointed out, Coinbase users have experienced similar technical issues in the past.

In the meantime, approximately 30 minutes after first acknowledging the incident on social media, Coinbase updated its online user interface to display a banner indicating that the issue is ongoing and being investigated.
