Bitcoin Forum

I remember when I started on here, YoBit was a big company at the time - still as shitty as before with its support and the amount of shitcoins on it but it was still big with a MASSIVE SIGNATURE campaign presence on here (even if they were a spammy sig campaign, kinda matched the company)

Does anyone know if they're still around and trading? And if so, if they're doing good as an trading network these days.

YoBit has always been one of the biggest exchanges that has been created, but the owners are so greedy, they want to raise as much money as they can, and this is why they are listing shitty coins only to receive some bitcoins for free in order to list them, and that is why there are some pump and dump coins, and nobody can stop this. And they are stopping people to withdraw their funds, probably this is the main reason of why people are not using YoBit anymore, it is a shady exchange.

I left it almost a year ago and I'm very happy in other exchange platforms. Yobit was really problematic and all the garbage things were listed in there. I feared to lose my bitcoins there. They also do lending which is very dangerous. I simply stay away.

they are still there and trading but I never get the information that yobit is not as it used to be, and some even say yobit is not paying

Yobit is for beginners or for few people with small investments. It is not advisable to trade in yobit for more than 0.1btc in a single transaction or your sell order will left the train. You need to be very active and watch your position to get profit or found your self getting dumped.

Good to know this. I observed also that there are a lot of altcoins that are just sitting there with almost no value at all.

So I'm wondering, maybe they were just pump and dump coins until the dev disappeared from the trading. But you can see so much altcoins over there that you can't even find in another exchanges. But I think, many individuals here are still using yobit for the purpose of buying and selling cheap altcoins but not necessarily investing large amount of money.

Yeah, only the newbie ones are using Yobit because it is one of the most easy and friendly to use and to trade very easily, i have to admit that i used YoBit on the past when i was just starting at trading.
And i remember that i spent more than 0.01 bitcoins on their Dice (bitcoin was below $500 anyway) but it was a good experience, now it is a shitty exchange who is full of bugs, nobody diserves to waste their time in this platform, because it is a garbage at the moment.

yobit will always be there. it's like the big exchange for shit coins.

I also experienced similar things but with different amounts
at that time I might have to spend 0.1 or even more on the dice games they serve.
and it is these things that teach us and can lead us to a real success
experience that teaches us about anything

YoBit still considered one from the biggest exchangers online for crypto currencies and tokens lastly. It is used a bit less than before because there are actually a lot of similar exchanges with lowest fees and better features. Also they have a serious problem with their slow support.

Weren't they the same exchange that pulled off a gimmick by giving their users BTG even before the actual fork happened? These little tricks of theirs are the only things keeping them in contention as an exchange. Probably going to use it again before the Segwit2x fork as I would be maximizing my profit when they list B2X before the fork and it becomes easy dumping ground.

yobit is one of the biggest and the best exchanges out there and so far im not experiencing any problems while trading my coins on thier platform. though i see some users are still having an inconvinience using thier site but overall i can say that yobit is not totally bad and its still much better compared to some real crappy exchanges like etherdelta , which is i think sucks so much.

Yobit still remains to be a highly functional exchange platform. In fact, there are still several big projects that are involved with Yobit. I cannot say much about whether it is indeed scammy or not because ever since I joined cryptocurrency, trading in particular, I never used Yobit, not even once. I used and felt comfortable so far with Bittrex, Poloniex, Cryptopia, HitBTC, and Bitfinex. But my major choice is Bittrex of course.   

Yobit exchange is full of controversies. In spite of this many big project are trading daily in yobit. Is yobit liquid? Yes is yobit insolvent? No. is yobit scammy? I don't know. But  it is a common knowledge not to keep your coin on any exchange! Goodluck!

There is a lot of scam report on yobit exchange and yet you still see a lot of good project tradingthere. Is there something fishy about those report? The exchange is still operating and it has not been shot down yet. Many reported scam may not be true after all.

Some of the comments in the thread are wrong. Yobit was never one of the biggest exchanges. Their daily trading volume never stayed with the top 10 exchanges consistently.

Maybe it gave off that impression because they were aggressively marketing it last year. I remember their signature campaign used to have a lot of participants.

Many people evaluate high yobit though it contains a lot of shitcoin and so do I. I appreciate that many shitcoins can make you incredibly rich even though it has many risks you can not predict.

I don't know man, but I still seeing someone carrying Yobit as signature so I'm assuming that they are still around, or maybe the campaigner didn't removed his signature because he still loves and do trading with Yobit.

I think they are still alive and doing so-so today. There was a lot of scam accusations and it is still on-going. I don't know though how they still survived from all those, maybe trading platforms really do get huge profit that's why they are still up and running up to this time. But I already stayed away from Yobit because of their shitty support and withdrawal issues.

YoBit has always been one of the biggest exchanges that have been there but the owners are very greedy, they want to collect as much as possible of their money, and this is why they are giving a list of discordant coins just to receive some bitcoin for free for their list, and that is why there are some coins pumps and dumps, and nothing can stop this. And they stop people to withdraw their funds, maybe this is the main reason why people do not use YoBit anymore

Yobit where you can enlist your coin for a short time and for a dump & bump a quick money indeed. Where you can be rich as soon as possible, ripping the coins until they're dead. I used to trade at yobit but not anymore because of some controversial and accusations to them. Thanks I bumped this thread, I'll check my account later if some of my dead coins are alive.

I have not personally used yobit.but i have heard that there are long delays especially related to withdrwals.

Even I started by using yobit but I left almost a year and a half ago,as every one mentioned their owners are just so greedy,according to me there were high chances of loosing my bitcoins there.currently none of my friends use yobit

It's easy and ok sort of exchange and easy to enroll the coins. So yes I am still using yobit till now.

Yobit is still around and people are still using it. there is volume coming out of there anyways. and I believe with bittrex closing down a lot of accounts there have been a lot of users who looked for alternatives and some of them may even switch to Yobit and many other exchanges even for testing to see which one is good.

I have used them and from time to time I use their services. it is bad and there is no proper support but it is working anyways. it is a risk I take for profit. for example I dumped some part of my bitcoin gold there. and it was easy and smooth, surprisingly!

They did now closed the participation of their campaign and yet it's still active here in forum most of their participants now are hero members I guess they're still paying and I don't know if they have plans of giving some spots or re-opening their thread and the applications in the future.

---

I know many are complaining about their support since those complains are just for their shit coins but honestly, I'm trading some of my main alt coins such as ETH and LTC there. I don't have any problems with it but what I only don't like there is they aren't showing the TXID and has some delays when you deposited with them so at first thought you think that you've been scammed by them.

if you don't plan on making either a deposit or a withdrawal of 80% of the altcoins listed on Yobit, then you can use their services without any issues. you can deposit bitcoin, make profit and withdraw your bitcoin + the profit out with ease.
although it is risky because yobit is shady but most other exchanges (even the big ones) are shady these days so it is not that bad. but it is best to choose others if you can.

I do not use it anymore because I dont really like it especially since they add the gambling game. I also feel that the site is so laggy in my browser unlike when I'm doing trades at other exchanges such as bittrex or kraken.
There are also many negative feedback against yobit which makes me more sure to leave their site and move to other sites. It is just personal opinion, some other people may still using it as they do not have any issues at all. Its all about preferences.

I love Yobit, they provide fast buy sell order. They also have investment program, dice. Really good exchange.

Yes i did it a few days ago,
and so far i never encountered something bad while using their service,
i did it because only them and some 'unknown' exchanger listing some of my portfolio.
they're still running their exchanger,
from my point of view their deposit system a bit strange(even though i did not have a problem after sending my coin),
why i called it that why ? because whenever you sent your coin to them and then check it on explorer you will see that your coin already delivered to their wallet,
but when you checked your wallet,deposit history,you will not see it even you will not see your 'deposit progress'.
after a few minutes later your coin suddenly show up.
seems like they're crediting your coin manually or something else,
but i prefer to not doing any trade in there,and only do it if you have an urgent matter.

i'm not anymore use them since there are some users who complaining regarding deposit and withdraw option and indeed i personally never have any issue during use them and the latest news i hearing is most of my friends use yobit several times ago to save their bitcoin because on 2nd hardfork this exchange give bitcoin split called bitcoin gold but i have to admit that i'm slightly worried trade at there because there are plenty scam coin available  

Yobit still alive, even with the terrible support they have, its curious they had add these days a lot new options where you can trade some strong currencies into another altcoins. If they just focus a bit into the support for sure they could be top 3 exchanges, but well, dont know why but looks like big companies dont wanna staff to work with costumers issues, poloniex were amazing till the day trollbox were closed and their support gone in the same moment. I do have some yovi coins, soo i do it usually for sell mine coins, and sometimes i get some altcoin and cashout.

I am currently not using Yobit for trading. I stopped trading there some months ago.
But I login daily because I have about 48 shit coins there which need to be sale out before I exit completely.

Honestly speaking I have never faced any problem there.
I have only seen all the scam accusations of Yobit in this forum which were genuine accusations.

The main problem of Yobit is, they have a shit support system and frequently altcoin's wallets goes in maintenance.
Other than these problems I don't see anything else, because I got paid every time when I requested a withdrawal.

I've always purposefully avoided Yobit entirely, their fees are a lot higher than on other exchanges and they seem to add shitcoins non stop.
The fact that they operate a dice game on the same website also looks a bit shady.

I wouldn't really call Yobit a reputable exchange, not planning on using it any time soon.

I am a yobit user and really the withdrawal time is not delayed as to what you are hearing.

YoBit has always been one of the biggest exchanges that has been created, but the owners are so greedy, they want to raise as much money as they can, and this is why they are listing shitty coins only to receive some bitcoins for free in order to list them, and that is why there are some pump and dump coins, and nobody can stop this. And they are stopping people to withdraw their funds, probably this is the main reason of why people are not using YoBit anymore, it is a shady exchange.

i still using yobit although yobit is not my main site for trading and i do this for a long time ago. the first time i know yobit is because i often to played with their faucet and yes there is many of altcoin faucet that we can get the reward but of course the rewards is not too big and most of the coins is cheap coins. until now sometimes i am playing with the faucet and sometimes if i want to do trade, i can directly buy the coins from the list and the coins its cheap price so we can buy for a big amount. last few days ago, i see in yobit, bts got pump but unfortunately the wallet is maintenance so i can not send my bts balance to yobit.

Yes, I still use it and I agree that it is still crappy up until now.

Yobit has always had these shady and questionable ways of doing things which to me makes it a very unsafe place to drop my asset and trade. However, so many people are still trading on them and they have always had these way of still staying afloat despite all the criticisms but as for me, I always avoid them like plague cause I feel a time will come when users will wake up and see that their funds are all gone.

Because of Bitcoin Gold is the first market-based exchange site, they advertise for free, but users who sell Bitcoin Gold have never returned Smiley

YoBit is definitely still around and they still push a great deal of volume (they also have more shit coins than ever before)! YoBit has pretty much become the go-to exchange for Pump and Dumps these days (because of they support SO MANY coins and push a lot of volume). It still has its place- as a super spammy exchange- and I think it will keep that place for a while.

Good luck and stay safe! :P

i still use yobit although i am not too often to trade in that sites because i think my main balance is not in yobit so i only take a look at my account at once in three days. yobit can be good to trade for new people because there is many cheap coins that we can buy. but i think its little difficult to determine which coins that will give us profit because the coins is really needs a long time before its increase and i think people can not be patience to see the price is really slow to increase.

Yobit for me is not a good exchange site anymore theres a lot of shit coin listing in that site theres always a dump and pump happening I remember when I'am practising to trading some coins Yobit gives me a lot of profit the community are big and helpful but now its not a recommended exchange site anymore thats the reason why Iam leaving Yobit.

Yobit exchange is still functional. I trade  i yobit all the time. When i occasionally look at the reviews, in most cases than one, the reviews are not encouraging at all. There are claims and counter claims of fraud of which I have never exprience.

What do you mean, "not a recommended exchange"? Not recommended by who? First you say it's not good for you, then you say it gives you lots of profit... Sounds like schizophrenia case.

I dont have yobit account,  but i often help my friend to open his account on yobit for trading and withdraw because yobit website very slow to loading,  maybe too much coin listed there. From my experience,  yobit slow to open it,  but easy to use.  I dont have a problem with deposit or withdraw,  maybe one day i will create yobit account.

Tillkoeln is one of the developers using Yobit, he has more than 200 coins listed on Yobit, I think he owns the whole exchange, first lol. they never listed my activity tokens even after my sister begged them for it. second lol. they charge very high fees for withdrawal, it keeps me from using their services.
Don't let me to talk about their fake volume, when you see a coin with 1500BTC volume, that means it only has 1.5 real volume. third lol.

I have quit that website for a long time.

When I see those altcoins that are getring ressurected then a few using the chat to make it look like it will be wortg something is like cheating.
Some will invest not knowing they were just pumping it to steal.
Victims are the newbies and I am one. Good thing I have made some money afterwards.

But i will never go back there. Too many shitcoins.

A lot of people really find yobit very easy but it seems a huge risky place to ever trade. I do not want to go towards their level of support because that sucks and I cannot imagine having an issue with my funds and then not being able to reach anyone to resolve that.

They have done some crazy greedy stunts over the years and that totally makes me uncomfortable as a user which is why I won't really want to be a part of that exchange ever again but for those who can take the chance and overlook security for the ease, they can be my guest.

I am using yobit for more then 2yrs but still i am using it and never faced problem, the main problem with them is most of the coins which are in good wallet condition even then in yobit that coins are in maintenance due to the coin server problem. Balance almost all coins are listed in this exchange.

Yobit looks like scam, better try binance or bittrex. As for me I trade on bitfinex, they have pretty good interface

Yobit listed a lot of the shitcoin and some of these coins are ponzi coin just like leocoin. I'm not using yobit agian since the more people are getting more difficult to withdraw their money and yobit wasn't like to listing good coin. Too many shitcoinh just like trump coin.

PM/Chat Logs:

I opened three tickets support, i sent private message in bitcointalk and bits.media, MMGP and until now nothing.
SCAM or Bad Service?

i never try yobit, about 2 week ago i want trading there because my coin listed there
but when i consult with my friend he say "yobit is suck" he can't withdraw the balance.

Yobit was good at past but now i don't know what they are thinking and doing.
I have seen lot's of shitcoin has been added in yobit.
And i have heard many people has also scammed by yobit.
So it is mixed emotions about yobit.

Yobit does not seem to be a legit exchange.Mostly scam coins are listed there and very often,most of the new coins suddenly get disappeared from the market.They just don't analyze the truthfulness of the coin before listing it.Any shit coin could get easily listed there.

Any exchange that even cares less about the kind of coin they list is something to worry about. However, I would not really say that should be a problem from them, since the users themselves cannot really know the kind of coin to stay away from. We cannot stop shitcoins and there are just so many of them.

Still, I do not see any reason why a user should have a problem with withdrawals and not have a good support to reach out to. That is shady and I really pity those who feel they are being treated OK right now, because it really won’t be funny.

Yobit is a trading site where signal-to-noise ratio is much more than that of other professional trading sites like Poloniex or Bitfinex. Every shitcoins are listed on Yobit which makes it difficult for the actual traders to frequent there. I was actively trading there when it was first launched but now I just don't login at all.

Also their support have degraded a lot now.

I only trade in Yobit for a few hours and will withdrew my property if it was profitable. Yobit is considered to have the fastest withdrawal rate because just confirming the confirmation email I was immediately confirmed on Blockchain and I always see Yobit as the best exchange on my list.

ofcourse yobit still on track im using it for exchange .u said u use it when your starting.why not check it for your self how yobit works until now.for me YOBIT is the best  and will always be best.most of my friends are using Yobit thats we surely do

YoBit are scammers. There is a particular case where they are still listing an old fork of a coin which is essentially worthless. The only people that buy into it are people who are not aware of it because it uses the same name. They are not to be trusted and I would never ever leave my funds on their wallets, NEVER.

If you still use Yobit you should consider moving on to other exchanges.

Everyone should stay away from YoBit. The yob2x coin of them is showing their true colour.

Luckily they are still alive and kicking as of now which they do continue on their signature campaign and the service that they do give into its traders which there are still new coins being listed on the site.Yobit is indeed famous on those previous years have passed until now the reputation does remain specially on its support which do really sucks bigtime but still I'm sure there are people who do make use of the site and I don't know whats the thing that keeps them coming back.

Yobit does have a lot of scam coins in their exchange and i am sure they are ones who come up with those coins and hype them in the chat section and then dump when people invest in it and that coin is dead and they will move into a new one and this is happening for a long time.

Even segwit 2x already cancelled so that coins just issued by the yobit exchange itself, and what a shame with that shitcoin. Yobit try to take the advantages from the segwit2x of bitcoin cancelation.
But looks another like hitbtc still didn't erase it.

Thats why we should never ever listen on those people who are telling shills on the trollbox specially on yobit because you would only lose up money when you tend to buy those coins because once they dump then for sure you cant do anything about it and one thing i do observe on that exchange is that there are lots of bots who do pump and dump such shitcoins.One glimpse you would possibly lose it all. There are lots of shitcoins on there thats why i dont trust them and long time ago i do move in more reliable exchange than on this one.

I see one email from Coinbase stating that segwit2x project is still taken in the hand by the few peoples.
Are they taken that as they thinking that is the right path and goes to wrong way to issuing shitcoin.
But I don't know after the long period in the trading side still many scam report about Yobit around the forum. What their support team doing instead of looking this out.

Wait until they show you the other side of them. To answer the OP question first, yes, a lot of naïve and gullible people are still making use of the exchange.

I say gullible because everything about the exchange speaks a lot of worries and any smart person should better not leave what they cannot afford to lose on Yobit. They are always after profit and most times even at the detriment of users with such a shitty support which we all know that is important in a place you are keeping your funds.

you have make good statement first on yobit then suddenly drop them down.

I still uses yobit for exchange and trouble is normal in all of exchange site but what matters is they dont scam your funds.so better say no bad about yobit because this is a free community and averyone deserves to be on what they wanted to

I'm still using Yobit for a low investment. I ride with their shitcoins and get out when I take 40-50% profit. I didn't experience what other saying that they are having problems on withdrawals. Yobit is the place og garbage coins, but still there is money in that that garbage. :D Just trade with caution, short time trade. Then transfer to big exchanger. 

Only for a smaller amount of my bitcoins and buying some of the coins I am using that exchange but for high amount of bitcoins and for good amount of trade I do not use yobit because they are famous for many shady activities and I do not want to lose my money. It is true that they were have a massive signature campaign but it is not compulsory that if someone have a massive signature campaign then they will be honest.

Most people complain about Yobit because certain coins are under maintenance, and in some cases for a very long time, meaning that they in most cases wait for the developers behind these coins to fix whatever needs to be fixed, or Yobit just doesn't care. People making use of Yobit to invest in these shitcoins have no right to complain in this case. If you buy yourself into shitcoins, you have to accept the common problems tied to these coins, and if you don't want to deal with these problems, then don't buy these shitcoins. If people stick to the higher tier altcoins on their platform, they don't have to go through any difficulties....

It because their coins are the least priority of yobit. I've been into yobit for trading those top coins and never had any single problem with them. Sometimes they are closing or freezing withdrawals it's either there is an ongoing maintenance or the hot wallet for that coin is empty.

we all know that yobit has a shitty support/shitcoins/many wallets on maintenance but you guys gotta admit it has the best UI ever ! i mean it's really easy to use for newbies at least it was easy for me back in the days :D, i also remember all those pumps and dumps and the endless chat spamming.. yobit is like adrenaline rush you have to chose your coin wisely and know exactly when to enter and exit.
I'm still using yobit now though the volume increased a lot than the before. so yeah i think it's still good for newbies and pro traders as well

Yes, I am never comfortable with this exchange, in terms of securities and the way they do things as what they are just after is the money instead of reputation, and they can list anything as long as they get paid. However, based on what you have said, I would not call them scammers because of that.

Anyone who enters the trading market should know that information and trading are like brothers and sisters and you cannot do one without the other. Therefore, even if you want to make use of the exchange, you should know better the coin you want to trade. That is not Yobit's job as far as I am concerned.

That is where they really missed their road. However, this has not stopped people from using this exchange which is the funniest part. It is worth questioning when you just accept all Tom, Dick and Harry into your exchange, which means it as a result of you caring less as long as you get paid for it.

As far as I am concerned, not just Yobit, but in every exchange, one just have to be careful not to put in what you cannot afford to lose even when you feel you have to trade much to earn much. Yobit though, is one of the last on the list of exchanges I will ever trade.

I am surprised it is still being traded not just on Yobit but HitBTC. However, I won't blame the exchanges in this case anyway, probably; I would rather blame the people trading them. Trading is a risk and if you cannot do enough diligence to know what you are holding or buying, then it is the call of the person in question who states himself as the trader and not these exchanges. All the above, this does not still remove my doubts on these exchanges, most especially Yobit. And as long as it is full of shitcoins, then that makes it a shitty exchange.

Unfortunately, even the trusted exchanges are also showing their true colors these days.

Bittrex for example has been known to lock accounts of unverified users without prior notice. A lot of people are complaining and I am not seeing anything done. At the end, as long as we do not have control over our funds with these exchanges, then we are not safe.
