i moved my alt coins to bittrex and cryptopia.poloniex is a very slow site and i cant log in from my mobile.

then main thing is always maintain and missed lot of trades because of that .sorry good buy poloniex .

To many bad feedback are now given to poloniex and I'm wondering on why they act like this since they used to became a top exchange who got good + rating interms on tradings before, And now I never do any trades there same as you since for reading some bad feedback outthere its freaking me out and made me think that poloniex would have possibilities to came next to mt.gox and btc-e.

I think they get a lot of users from btc-e space, so maybe this is the point why the site is get slow now.

One more black ball for Poloniex. Connection issues, withdrowal delays, customer support service...
Keep us updated with your experience at cryptopia in contrast to polo.

How did you manage to withdraw your cryptocurrencies from Poloniex? I've read too much complaints on the past on various forums and on Reddit on how their Poloniex accounts are locked up and couldn't withdraw their funds. People are saying that they don't even reply to customer support, some even reaching up to more than 3 months of no reply. Please tell us how you did it, as some people surely would want to know how. Also, good idea by withdrawing. I sense a scam quit by them soon.

Thats alright, neither of you shall miss each other

There is nothing secretive to withdraw the coins from Poloniex,just withdraw as usual and if that takes a long time then the waiting game starts,it might get a couple of days up to a week to get that sorted ,if you start a support thread expect a reply from them only after solving the issue  ;D, they really could not handle the heavy traffic and they are not capable to sort that out and i stopped using them a long time back because of these delays.

i don't agree with you.some BTC-e users went to bitrex to then bitrex can handle the traffic why polo cant.they get fee from us they must give a good service for us

thank you

just can't say why polo really having a hard time handling this issue or they are just ignoring the problem and let their traders to change exchange
good for you that you act quickly and you really concerned about your investment lets see if this can still be workout by polo in this coming days.

yes it is.i am not wheal but we love our alt coins,because thats our hard worked money.polo is my first exchange 2nd one bitrex. still no problem with bitrex.

"its freaking me out and made me think that poloniex would have possibilities to came next to mt.gox and btc-e." another reason lot of friends told may be this news to it may be happen also ?

thank you

sure.only 5 days with cryptopia sill no problem.no connections issues.fast lording.no any withdrawal delays yet.

one of my friend told me lot of whales use cryptopia

 we will see.thank you

i withdrew  like this

SIA- 5hr

DGB- 1/2 hr or less

SYS - 18 hrs

NXT - more than 1 day

ETH - 1hr

LSK - 3 hr or more

LBC / LTC - i didn't remember that

it got more than 1 week to withdraw it. dont put all same time or same day. withdraw one by one it will get more time . but i thought it is the safer way.

but some of my friends did like this they sold there alt in loss and withdrew as BTC. i dont think that is a good idea why we sell our alt in lot.try this way

thank you

good idea.whats is your best Exchange?

thank you

Another user do decide to leave out on poloniex again and its not surprising anymore and im sure you are not the only one who are experiencing this problem but there are lots including me. Horrible loading times and deposits/withdrawal request sucks bigtime which we can really make such decision for the best time to jump on another exchange its really a normal thing for traders to seek out new exchange that would really suit their needs.

yes we all get the same problem.i lost lot of best trades becasue of this maintain situations.what is your best exchange?

thank you

Good for you, I have a pending support ticket there for the past 2+ months, and still no resolution.

let me update you after about a year of using cryptopia:
it has been a good experience. they are serious about their business and are not fooling around. what i also like about the owners is that they have a plan and stick to it. for example after ethereum forked they said we won't have it in our exchange and stuck to it despite the price rise and the big volume.

the platform is good, although i sometimes feel it loads a bit slow.
the charts aren't that good but most exchanges have bad charts anyways.
the API is good enough for me.
there are multiple markets apart from bitcoin as their base currency and that is awesome.
the volume is a bit low but the prices are always on par and the spread is not that big to cause any problems.
i had never had any issues with deposits and withdrawals either.

I think poloniex is one of the best trading site. I cannot  really understand why there are many information  against their activities. I have been using poloniex.com and never have any problems with them. Is there any benefits other exchangers trading platform are enjoying that we are not enjoined at poloniex?

@BrewMaster

Thank you a lot. Appriciate your review. Gonna test cryptopia.

thank you for your reply

"the charts aren't that good but most exchanges have bad charts anyways." i saw it to.i relay good with bitrex charts  but if cryptopia bitrex use tradingview charts its is really good for them.

thank you

thank your for your comment.


don't you get any maintenance mode and slow lording when your use polo.

thank you

You do very well, Poloniex in this year really bad, team support always skip Feedback of user and let them change to other exchange, like they not need user trading on their exchange. Bittrex in next time I think will have good volume as Poliniex in early this year, after listed Bitcoin Cash and have volume more than 400,000 BTC/day, the future Bittrex replace Poloniex will be soon. Team Support of Bittrex very friendly, better than Poloniex.

Trading exchanges are not remaining trustworthy anymore.
I don’t understand why they are not fixing up their problems instead of losing the customers. I believe that these charts should be available on all exchanges so that people stop quitting these famous exchanges.

Well they lost one more. Finally my ticket was solved, and I withdrawed it immediately. Bye Bye Poloniex :)

Obviously i suggest you to use cryptopia and bittrex because last some days i am facing this kind of problem. There is withdrawal problem, support are not caring. For this i have already moved my majority coin cryptopia and bittrex. But after all hope this reputed organization will come back with strongly and actively.

Cryptopia? You really trust cryptopia over poloniex?

They have no balance, no support team, ( nothing compared to polo ), no volume.

Polo already has more volume then bittrex again, and i really despise the UI of bittrex.

If only bittrex would fix marginal trading, fix their UI, they would be the top exchange. but then again, won't they also get support issues once they get as big as polo?


Same. I use both bittrex and polo with decent trading amounts, and never had any problems with any of the sites.

Well, as I lack time, I have been spending more time on investing on good coins rather than trading. Thus, most of my funds are now in offline wallet, and the rest in bittrex. I am completely off from poloniex for good.

I had my fair share of issues with poloneix, but it is still my main trading exchange along with bittrex. I keep going back to it and i don't know why but with caution of course, specially  after all the negative feedback it got recently

Good decision. Bittrex is way more better than them and it's their fault that traders already lost all their patience. I hope they learned a lesson and upgrade everything because polo is one of my top exchanges when I started trading. They have a good reputation so they should be worried by now.

They just grew too fast, with too many users piling onto their site. We're seeing this with other exchanges too. Kraken has become laggy because so many people are logging in. I think the sudden surge in new users took them all by surprise.

Were you able to successfully transfer all your altcoins from Poloniex to Bittrex though? I wanted to transfer my coins but I was afraid it might happen to me the one's people are complaining about not seeing their coins being transferred and sometimes it takes months for them to transfer coins.

Depends which coin you are trading, not all altcoins in mobile behave slowly, I tried ripple and it's extremely slow and freezes the screen.

In bittrex is much faster and I have started to like this exchange even though I haven't used it for a long time.

Also poloniex withdrawal time takes a lot, but in bittrex it's pretty fast, the deposit is not fast at all (for bitcoin deposits)

there are many trader is join with polo and in the same time, they trade many coins and this makes poloniex got slow in their connection. i think you make right decision to move your altcoin into bittrex because i think bittrex is more stable than poloniex and beside that, in bittrex there are many altcoins that have potential to increase. but i still have my balance in poloniex because i still want to stay in poloniex for a while.

I can't agree more. I did the same with you, before we earn money , we should keep our money safe at first.

Good job guys,if poloniex  don't enhance its service, more and more users will leave it like you and me.

 i think polonix is not more secure and its transaction also very slow. few times account also hacked by somebody. so that we have to keep carefully our coins. compare to polonix  bittrex is the secure wallet you try to invest in to this wallet and use. so we should keep safe our money. once check and invest in to a best secure wallet.

100% bro. They suck everytime when I needed them most. I thought yobit is the worst but poloniex beat them because of their site issues. I always hear complains where people are getting frustrated just to withdraw their btc on the stupid site.

Well, in reality there are many poloniex users that has been shifted into other trusted exchange site platform, including myself now I am using bittrex.com, hbtc.com, livecoin, and coinexchange because poloniex has been so many negative feedback from the other client in terms of their services.

It seems peoples act like me. Leaving poloniex because someone has a bit of constraint to connect with it. However, I still use poloniex though not as often as i used to.
