I wasn't involved in this at all but I trade stocks somewhat regularly. All consumer platforms became unresponsive or offline this morning for a half hour or so. That was a coordinated effort by someone. This won't be allowed for long.
Nah.
There was a shite ton of volume and traffic and the usuals couldn’t handle it. It’s not the first and won’t be the last time those places go down, but it’s not some evil trick.

Almost every platform went down at almost the exact same time for 30 minutes - Etrade, Fidelity, Schwab etc? Unless the actual exchanges claim they went down that seems extremely unlikely.
I work in IT and I'm pretty experienced with web traffic and it taking sites down. The likelihood of them all going down at once being a coincidence is almost 0.
