MICROSOFT'S OWN SERVERS STARTED DROPPING OFFLINE — 128,874 OUTLOOK OUTAGE REPORTS — IN ORDER:
→ 12:54pm ET, Nov 12 — Microsoft investigates: users can't get into Exchange Online mailboxes in the Americas, via multiple connection methods
→ 1:07pm ET — Microsoft says it may hit users in any region — not just the Americas
→ 1:09pm ET — Outlook outage reports peak at 128,874 — Teams and Copilot reports climb
→ 2:12pm ET — Microsoft pauses all deployments
→ 2:31pm ET — servers are unexpectedly down, the rest are STRAINING
By 2:50pm ET, servers were failing health checks.
Not a traffic surge. Not a rush of users.
Microsoft's own machines quit — and the whole workday waited.
That's the sequence.
And the app list in that outage tells you everything about what this is actually about:
→ The work inbox
→ The AI assistant inside Office
→ The office suite with 321 million active users
This isn't just an email outage.
It's a world office on wheels — and it stalled because the fleet wasn't done failing.
2:50pm ET: Microsoft restarts all affected servers.
When Microsoft names what knocked those servers out, you'll wish you'd followed me.
🚨BREAKING: #MEXC crypto exchange to be banned by US after links to North Korea and Russia. They have 40M+ global users.
Is MEXC in big f*cking trouble?
BREAKING: World's largest crypto exchange Binance hacked with over $5.6 billion stolen:
• $1.45 billion $BTC
• $875 million $ETH
• $234 million $TRX
• $50 million $XAUT
• $1.57 billion $USDT
• $823 million $USDC

This is the largest hack in crypto history.
Bitcoin has historically bounced back after every US midterm election cycle.
Could history repeat itself in the next cycle? Traders will be watching closely for another potential recovery.
So, in the same week we had:
- BitMEX shutting down
- Bitmart shutting down
- Collapse of 21 Capital merger
Tough bear market - but generally the stuff you start seeing near a bottom.
JUST IN: Bitcoin crashes below $65,000 after Israel launches strikes on Iran.
$175,000,000 worth of leveraged crypto positions have been liquidated from the crypto market in the past 30 minutes.
Under Trump’s direction, the US delta force captured dictator Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela in a highly successful surgical strike.
The left is melting down because they hate Trump more than they love America. #madurocaptured
