Kraken and Coinbase have both been experiencing connectivity issues in the past hour.
Just before 19:00 UTC, Kraken announced that it was investigating reports from users who reportedly had difficulty connecting to Kraken both on desktop and mobile.
The issue was still being investigated at press time.
