Coinbase suffered a glitch on Wednesday that left many users seeing a zero balance in their account.
The Coinbase crash just erased $100 BILLION of market cap in Bitcoin in 15 minutes. Between 12:15 PM ET and 12:30 PM ET, Bitcoin fell from $64,000 to $59,000.

It also happened to occur just as Bitcoin was less than 10% away from a new all time high. Coinbase is reportedly still working on fixing the issue. Source: The Kobeissi Letter
