Just looking at BTC/LTC/ETH on Coinbase it seems like all have experienced a significant drop in price. This often seems to coincide with terrible Coinbase performance. Does downtime cause the drop in price/drop in price spike traffic and cause downtime/or are they unrelated?

When there's a significant drop in price, usually there's a rush of people trying to sell off BTC/ETH and another rush of people trying to buy BTC/ETH. Coinbase has been having issues with uptime with the recent surge in interest for cryptocurrencies.
