Thanks for the update on this bro!
Cause I was wanting to put in a deposit just now and if I did it would be in pending forever.
Thank you for the save on that mistake it would of been.

glad to hear , that my effort helped you :)

at yobit first : check always the wallet

there alot more not working wallets ......

Another reason not to use Yobit
Most coins are just pump and dump then disappeared on there.

Same.

Thanks again, the coins that pump within the YoBit Exchange are usually the ones that have a Wallet Maintenance issue going on in the system. The whole thing is kind of rigged but if you have the right coin you can't complain right? lol

the correct place is in the exchanges subboard in the services discussion main board.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=223.0

maintenance on Yobit in 99.9% of the cases means they are not running the wallet at all. because it is taking up space and costs server resources. so don't even keep your hopes up for them coming back because they never will.

also other coins wallets being online in that exchange doesn't mean anything.
I don't think you are going to encounter any problem with your deposits (cant be sure though) but you will surely encounter a lot of trouble if you want to withdraw anything apart from bitcoin or a couple of other top coins.

Their wallets are all empty, you submit a withdrawal of some altcoin with its wallet online and the site tells you it is going to pay from cold storage, then the funds will be blocked in a non-cancelable withdrawal request for about a week before it is canceled and back to your account.

in short stop using that terrible exchange service.

but coins that go to yobit while the wallet is in maintanance, aren't lost on my experience they are just delayed after you deposit, you need to wait for them to fix the wallet, and they get your coins credited after that, at least this what happened to me with veltor last time, but if they are delisting maybe it's better to avoid deposit

Nevertheless, that's terrible if suddenly the coins delisted. There's no notification about which coins will be delisting, isn't?


Besides that, the platform running very slow and even lag.

It is really up to the developers of those coins to contact Yobit and ask them what the problem is, and offer to help. If the developers can't be bothered, then the conclusion is that teh coin is dead.

Dont use Yobit wallet always in maintenance and i lose money with EDR coin

80 % of their coin wallet still in maintenance

better to use cryptopia or NovaExchange or Poloniex more

wallet 100 % online

 :)

I am waiting waiting almost 1 year to fix wallet.

That is why I'd never use yobit wallet as a place to store all my altcoins. Better install them on my PC or use their web wallet. It's a weird when I see so many complain about yobit but peoples never stop using it. You can see the big fees they take in any transactions, and the crazy pumping, and many others weird things that happen in yobit. And the important thing is their website is not mobile friendly. Lol

yeah, I wholeheartly agree.
I notice they are over valuing most of their alt coins they are selling and not with what the other exchanges are having them offered for.

You do not ever store your coins on an aexchange wallet even if they are all coins.
You only use it to trade your bitcoin for those altcoin then move them to an offsite wallet.

i have seen this before and indeed this is could be serious problem because if there is a users have a lot of the particular altcoins and the wallet maintenance which mean they cannot withdraw those altcoins and i wish yobit will considering provide notifications before the wallet maintenance to their users

Yobit wallets that go into maintenance are due to:
1) dead chain (no miners)
2) broken chain
3) lack of interest as it then is not profitable to run a daemon

Wallets go into maintenance when there is a delay in the blockchain. If the chain starts to move again within a short space of a few hours, the chain will automatically go out of maintenance. If the delay is extended, the maintenance will become permanent and will only be brought out of maintenance based on a support ticket.

There are one or more bots on Yobit that pumps coins that are in maintenance. The trader chooses these coins as it is then not possible to quickly deposit coins to sell into the pump. Only those with coins already on the exchange with these coins can take advantage of the pump.

There are lots of things a community member/dev can do to prevent a coin going into maintenance. It is almost a dedicated job to do chain management and analytics for a coin, but it is important as a healthy chain will prevent a coin going into maintenance. It is always better to prevent than to cure.

None of the above is sinister though and looks to be part of a normal business model.

Or Yobit is functioning as a fractional reserve and selling those altcoins for BTC & LTC ,

Then placing those coins in maintenance where they never have to worry about pay out.  :P


 8)


FYI:
The Majority of those coins in maintenance have active communities and working coin networks.
If Yobit is not going to have a working wallet, but just list everything in maintence for years , they be doing everyone a favor by going thru and delisting any coin , they are not going to support. Until they do, they are just a scam site.  :P
 

I won't be surprised if there is something truthful in this presentation, i won't forget LISK trading without real LISK. Everything was clear to me. I don't like their game if they don't won't coins or their chains are dead, that doesn't mean thay have right to fork it on their own.

i dont know why yobit still listing altcoin with zero network, seem its bad for trader, but for pumping group its easy to make moneyw with altcoin without network, so he can buy a lot altcoin then pump it and not woried about new deposit :: )

This is not only one bad thing that can happen to you. If you are careless you can send your funds coins from wallet to their which is in maintenance or on different fork then you can join Club. All this is even worse if you are miner, wasted time and wasted electricity. I'm on C CEX for now, i didn't notice they have problems with chains..

Yobit does not show as the best trading site because I have done a withdrawal but a long time in its work to get confirmation and it is almost a year withdrawal that I do not enter in my address  ???

That's a LOT of nodes to run for really dead coins. But yea, if you deposit into those you're probably screwed for a while.

Fucking Yobit is a scam, they have stolen my Espers (ESP) under false pretext of trying to update the wallet code for 3 fucking months.

I suspect they sold my ESP and all the other depositor's ESP coins to other exchanges and stole the money, so now of course I can't withdraw!!!!!!

Naturally, they won't answer to my support requests  about Espers, either, as the ESP is no longer in their possession.

Fucking Scam, Yobit.

Don't use this exchange people, they are thieves.

Also Pesobit has been stuck on the wrong fork at Yobit, please add Pesobit (PSB) to the list of wallets in maintenance at Yobit.

It doesn't show as "in maintenance" per se, but their PSB daemon is on the wrong fork, so if you withdraw PSB from Yobit, your coin will be lost.

Thanks for the warning, and need time for you to look at one by one the wallet and find the maintainance wallet.

I am sure there is also a coin that at the time when we see the wallet is not written as a maintainance wallet.

So when you want to make a deposit see also the last block written on the wallet and check in explorer, The block is the last block or not.

Does that mean if they're permanently in maintenance, prices will just drop and you won't be able to sell at a "market" price?

my idea (why i opened this thread), is/was to warn people , to check first the wallet when they wanna deposit....

there is much more not working wallets and honestly i dont want put my time to check them out .....


 

Exactly. Pesobit is on the wrong fork at Yobit, since January, and they dont seem to care; so in this wrong fork, the wallet is not in maintenance mode. It is technically working, just not on the right fork. We warned them about this countless times.

Just if you try to withdraw Pesobit from Yobit, you will lose your coins, if you are on the right fork; but Yobit does not warn people about this.

Personally I think it's unethical to sell a coin that has no way of being withdrawn. What value is a coin if if cannot be transferred. It's pointless unless you feel that selling people something they cannot own is okay. Sounds more like fraud to me

Yobit.net have really fraudulent customer service https://siliconangle.com/blog/2016/02/28/problems-with-withdrawals-support-reported-at-bitcoin-altcoin-exchange-yobit/ . Yobit don't try and resolve issues with your money being stuck on their exchange. Many including the law would call this fraud https://cointelegraph.com/news/cryptocurrency-exchange-yobit-investigated-in-russia-on-fraud-claims

I agree with you that Yobit has a bad business model.  You can not get your coins to another exchange or your own wallet.  Avoid Yobit at all costs.

yes, cannot withdraw or deposit , coin nearly die

Just did the math.

There are around 917 wallets in YoBit.

From those:
20 are in "Delayed" status. That's around a 2%
573 are "In Mainteinance" status. That's around a 62%
324 are online. That's a around 35%. However this number is even smaller as some of those online wallets are running a "YoBit Fork" (yeah, that's even a thing now) and some others appear to be online but they throw a last time warning, not allowing users to withdraw coins.

More than 50% of wallets disabled on a exchange. It's ridiculous.

Yobit business practice:

Jail your coin -->  Coin price dropped to 1 satoshi --> Yobit bought all the coins at 1 satoshi  -->  Open up the wallet -->  price went up to market price -->  Yobit sold all your coins at market price and make a ton load of money -->  Jail your coin again   ... rinse and start over again
the SEC should investigate Yobit for price manipulation and jail all the owners for doing this.

Thanks a lot  for this useful information,  it helps a lot specially for me as a newbie.  I do keep this in my mind to avoid such malfunction ing of wallet.

where i can find some information on wallet support.

i have 19000 only Lucky token but wallet is in maintenance,
i hope soon to be back again with the service as might to try with the request of transfers and make of exchange.

Yobit has a lot of coins and majority are shitcoins so I think they are really having a hard time making every one of them fully operational. Just don't deposit while it's still maintenance because lot of noobs don't know that.

Withdraw it as much as possible, don't stuck your LTC's there and find a better exchange where you can trade not only with LTC but with different coins that you want to sell.

Most of those coins are shitcoins and very few coins that can be included to my list there but I don't want to spend my money and coins on that shitchange.

Just don't deposit if you don't want to have an headache, they have the worst support that won't help you during their wallet maintenance.

Hi,

is anyone out there who knows the people behind Yobit?

Who is responsible for the scam?

I have  thousands in a coin which got suddenly into the maintenance Mode and is still there since months.

Its a whole masternode, which is perhaps now running for Yobit.

But for a legal act, i need the Name of a person

I sent all my xvg to yobit few moments ago. I didn't see that "wallet maintaince" thing first. It was working 5 days ago.
What will happen next guys? Did i lost all of my investment  :'(

If you haven't saw that wallet maintenance then it should be fine so you just have to wait before it gets confirmed. Usually those wallet maintenance that are happening to yobit are just for some wallets but still they are doing in randomly and I have no idea on when they will solve these kinds of problem. The question is why did you chose yobit for that deposit? There are other useful exchanges there that you can trade with.

just did the same thing, sent my coins to a wallet that is in maintenance...will they still arrive once they fix the wallet? I mean, it generated an address so I assume it's fine...usually it won't generate any address at all...also it says DEPOSIT TO THIS ADDRESS WITLL BE SUCCESSFUL...

this is my transaction: http://paccoinexplorer.us:3001/tx/3ee3846c0744407dd2a944d8d54565b0d387589f605ba8c77916b314c8bde87e

what will happen?

And this is mine:

4608ba11e7f407dc6f4857cb82df1d032b6912ce73e5e7b2a687e457344dadff

PacCoin wallet seems to be "in maintenance".
If a wallet is in "maintenance" they should disable the deposit button for the new users.

So... when the money will come back?! I have to think that it's a fraud?

I've read about this from other people before, they said that usually when the wallet comes back online the deposit gets through automatically...so, let's hope it's matter of days now...or any moment.

http://imgur.com/xEBVxBG.jpg

PACCOIN INCOMING!!! Looks like they fixed the wallet!

I see... but my transaction is "in pending" now. The coins are not into the wallet yet.
Let's hope that the transaction will be closed soon.

yes mine too, but the thing is, they weren't even in pending before for 10 days since I transferred were simply anywhere. LoL. As you can see it says ONLINE now in the wallet...Son one problem solved, I still got the ETH problem tho, as hundreds of others.

Now the status of PacCoin wallet is: "Delayed (2628050 blocks)" with my transaction in pending... :-((

I suppose that the wallet is online now, but it's not synchronized with the PacCoin's blockchain.

"The neverending story"...

Just saw it. Goddamn it.

new bullshit today:

https://i.imgur.com/0RNG4z7.jpg

I saw it - "Deposit for such currency is temporary off."... and the transactions are still in pending.
I have no more words.




 

I've sended RDD coins on Yobit.
I got '85 CONFIRMATIONS' for this transaction and got no coins on my Yobit account.

Support replied to created ticket with:
'Wallet  is on maintenance.
The solution to this cryptocurrency will take some time, need to update the wallet.'
:-\

THERE IS NO WARNING message about wallet maintenance.

So be careful with RDD coin deposit on Yobit now.

UPDATE:
Looks like after my request they added warning message, but didn't disabled deposit button.
So be careful - don't deposit till they fix this issues, or don't deposit your coins on this exchange ever.

Instances on depositing before seeing the warning message is commonly happening on here which if you do try to look out the guy above he saw the warning message too late and deposit button isn't still disabled which means higher chance on depositing on maintenance mode of a certain wallet would really happen. This is really an issue of the site if they are offering good service they would announce it early so that possible depositors of coins wont experience problems. This thread doesn't update anything hope it would be back so that everyone would be aware.

Actually, they added warning message after I've created support request about this issue.

If they did after that ticket about the issue then their service becomes worst even more. They are not doing their job or service well because its not really appropriate that they would impose things after an incident or issue do happen which isn't really right at all.If they would have a maintenance they would really announce it to public before doing such maintenance to avoid problems and seeing now on the situation they are doing the opposite thing.

Paccoins have arrived. Don't know how since the wallet is still offline, but they have arrived. LoL.

My PacCoins also arrived. The deposit is offline, but a withdrawal is possible. :)

I just sold them. LoL.

Having a thousands of wallets for each shitcoin is really hard to maintain. They also prohibits transferring of coins either it's withdrawal or deposit when there are arbitrage opportunities. The answer is easy: LEAVE.

Can safely add to the list XVG!

Are they really maintaining it? they don't even answer to the problems of many people here and it seems that they are not thinking of even maintaining it.

No idea on how wallets are in maintenance if their system is moving good and there are many volume trades for that coin. They are certainly manipulating, the only wallets and coins that are moving properly to their exchange are their very own yob2x and yovi.

While its early and don't deposit that much there.

YoBit XVG wallet is showing empty and money was sent from cryptopia . so i just loss my money right ?

No one should deal with yobit period .
I normally dont call anyone down but yobit is seriously. full of corruption
yes countless wallets dont work and they want like 100 doge to move your doge of course now you would have to find a coin with less fees ,and dont forget to check the wallet status,dont want any hidden surprises..............oh..green wallet fully operational...no sign no note saying something is wrong but when u go to leave the hidden message pops   up .wallet closed for now or the like.

I was lucky to get out but not without paying .please if you have any common sense you will stay away from yobit.  they cant be that stupid having wallets locked and falling apart probably even counterfeit coins as the wallet will be locked forever because it would expose theyr true intentions.
Im going to dare say that they are setting up these dead ends and traps to hustle folks out of theyr coins .

Iv played around with 10 exchanges so far and the ones that gave me the least grief were bittrex, cryptopia (altho theres been lots of wallet issues as of late) and trade satoshi
binnnace  was ok but felt a little weak not enough coins
 hitBTC seemed like a more advanced version of yobit
and bit-z again seems to leave me on edge


so again folks stay away from yobit they will find away to get you to pay ridiculous fees and possibly dupe you into a counterfeit coin that will be locked forever

SXC coin is temporary off for a long time !
can you do something at least YOBIT ?

I know I lost some of my coins due to a deposit ages ago because I didn't realise they put it in maintenance and they never replied to my support ticket, that was last year in Aug. Now Ive got LCC and cant deposit, I used a QT wallet for the fork as I didnt trust Yobit with that amount of money.

True. In Yobit often happens "wallet maintenance" and what i do not understand is sometimes maintenance is done Yobit very long. Whereas in some exchanges, maintenance doesn't happen too long.

C'mon, those are all shitcoins that you keep on checking. I'm certain that those coins don't even have a website and the developers who own those just abandoned it after taking profit from those idiots who bought it.

still waiting for CHATcoin maintenance to be over so I can withdraw. its been 1 month already

YEP.
YoBit is run by a bunch of criminals. CHAT COIN is permanently in maintenance mode since it listed on Binance.
The price today on YoBit is floundering at 0.00000132 and it's more than 10 times higher on Binance at 0.00001800.
YoBit are costing investors huge losses and I'm confident they're using our tokens to trade on other exchanges to profit in the meantime, then they bring the tokens back when the external price drops - and maintenance magically gets fixed then!!!
SHitBTC use the same technique.

I no longer use yobit, after some issues I choose another trusted exchanger.
some people say the same thing, this is enough.

Independent from the seriousity of yobit, i think its normal, that so many wallets are under maintance, as it is very easy to get coins on yobit listed. They have too many currencies of being able to update all wallets in time, if needed. I saw other exchangers already like for example Poloniex, which  only have a fraction of coins, compared to yobit and are even not with a few coins able to update the wallets timely. Don't get me wrong, I don't defend yobit as I don't trust any exchanger, but we should put these complaints in relation to the facts.
My experience on arbitrage trading is to choose only well established coins with stable and cheap network to swap them between exchangers. For buying, deposits and withdrawals of coins, that need many updates like for example BCN, I wouldn't choose Yobit or Poloniex.

I understand that Yobit has been adding too many coins, but it was THEIR decision to do so. When they accept to list a coin, they should take the responsability that goes with their decision. I don't understand how Yobit can even still exist today, because of this unreliability.

@Alyssa85

Are you working for Yobit ?! You said devs need to contact support to activate wallet with running chain. $BRE's dev did it and nothing happened since 2 weeks... is there any support on yobit ?

Thanks

CLUB COIN wallet in Yobit still in maintenance over a month. Can anyone advise to solve this issue? (pls don't said forget this coin, as just only this exchange where club coin exist)
Thank you.

Recently, a lot of people began to talk about this exchange is bad. I don't know what this is about, but I haven't heard any official negative news.

I've also seen offline wallet issues, when I want to do an arbitration
but have never experienced anything like this
can you share the experience, what happens with our funds, when the wallet coin related suddenly offline?

I also encountered this problem sometime ago when I tried deposit some coins in Yobit. I kept waiting for days for them to fix the issue but I finally had to give up because I realized nothing was being done about it.

Or better - stop using yobit and you won't have problem with their shitty wallets.
Use good and trusted exchanges and avoid shady ones.
Yobit has proven several times that it is not reliable exchange.

Lets say it is normal practice for Yobit. It blocks wallets when there is a pump of certain coins or they have own interests in trade, if you deal with Yobit get ready for such surprises.

People doesnt learn and doesnt listed on what most veteran members do tell on here which we do keep saying on avoiding this shady exchange yet there are lots of better exchangers than this one.
Lots of issues and yet lots of unresolved also.If you dont like to experience such problems then better skip this one.

This ain't happening to them but I've experience in some exchange too, the timing is perfect where there are pumps.
But if its yobit then you better choose another exchange, don't get used to the complains and better search a well performing exchange.

Too many complains about their deposits that never stops, check their ANN threads to see more complains.

Yobit.net and Yobit.io is a scammers site. After entering funds to the site, the wallet becomes "Wallet status: Maintenance". With this status, the wallet can be several months or years. Support service ignores your complaints and questions. To withdraw funds, you need to change your coins to bitcoin at a very unprofitable exchange rate and go out with a loss. Be careful! YOBIT = SCAM!

if the wallet(s) are not functioning "under maintenance" then HOW can Yobit allow trading of the coins at the same time ?
where are the coins that are being bought & sold actually being held?
they make the transactions - the balances transfer from one (seller) to another (buyer)
