Hello, looking to start a lawsuit against hitbtc
They are stealing small investors money because most of us can't fight back. Join in I am organizing a lawsuit. Let's bring em down!!! Powermaad@gmail.com spread the word!!!

I don't understand about HITBTC, i ofte hear about this deceit but i can't deny that they are interesting for traders. But for me, i won't join that exchange. Hope HITBTC will solve the problem soon and the persons that suffered will get solution

What's the issue exactly? I use this exchange sometimes and quite like their interface. Haven't noticed any stealings personally. Would you mind elaborating on your issue?

I dont know what exactly he experienced with them but me personally have encountered their very huge withdrawal and deposit fees.I mean who charges fees for deposits after you pay for your money to carried across a network to the exchange.Other people have also complained about their coins being stolen

Their services performance is getting worst because there are issues like lossing clients coins during their deposit and withdrawal transactions, delayed transactions that sometimes it took to 5 days, and the worst is they are collecting deposit fees in which the fees should only be intended for withdrawal and direct trading. These are already protested but looks like no action from the support that is why lot of coin owners are avoiding this exchange including me.

Really deposit fees? How much are these? Can you show some screenshots or a reference to their FAQ? I agree that is insane if true.

HitBTC is good exchange and im using it daily. In fact it is one of the third exchanger that I use most and I have no problems with it. I never seen my money going down or up and to be honest im the small investor as well. So its nothing like that they are stealing money from my account or something similar.

On the other hand they even credit all types of forked coins to my account whenever there is BTC balance at the time of forking. So which exchange would do that ? I mean they are genuine that is why they do credit my account occasionally and scam exchanger would have stolen such free money already. Anyway I just thought to point it out because everyone is just saying negative stuff about it.



Yeah, me too I dont see any problem with this service.

Hitbtc is a huge exchange, if ever this statement is true all the investor and user of that exchange is doomed. I hope OP could give proof to this forum so that others will be aware and not be a victim of this site.

Maybe you're just having some errors on the system might be bug or glitch. Contact their support and maybe they can help you with your problems. So far on HiTBTC I've never encountered such problems.

Hitbtc have a lot of issues!
one of them is that ver delay on answering back  when you submit a ticket,also it hasn't given out ignis airdrop from NXT , it's been more than 2 mounts! >:(

When did you use this exchange recently?

They either take a very long time or never reply to the tickets then what the use of contacting their support team?

Basically, they got few issues like missing coins, withdrawals delays, very high fee for altcoins and no help from support.

Sometimes you can recover back your missing coins by refreshing account page few times but for other issues, we can't do anything.

I use hitbtc daily  and i did'nt find any issue until yesterday when i withdraw my ebtc coins it doesnt create  transaction hash and until now im waiting for my coin ro be transfer in my private wallet already contacted their support but no reply yet . my ebtc was worth 2.5k$ with the current price

dude, don't be so paranoid... there could be many reasons for the withdrawal delay....a major exchange like hitbtc wouldn't risk their reputation on purpose for your pocket change.  You made the withdrawal request yesterday, only 24 hrs has passed, and you already trying to turn the spotlight over. What if they were being DDOSsed, did you think about that?

and please, who are you trying to kid with that law-suite threat? Any decent lawyer would laugh right at your face.

Hitbtc exchange now is not as same as before, there are so many complaints about the deposit and withdrawal missing plus the current high fees in their exchange. Also their supports are inactive, so hard to contact them for users inquiry. Its better to avoid this exhange now until those issues been resolve

Just stop using HitBtc? High fees are not 'fraud' if you are getting warned about them in the first place. If you don't want to lose ~$6 in deposit fees (up to $100 with USDT) for each deposit you make, just stop using them. There are way better choices.

They are interesting for traders only because they have many pairs to trade and first list new coins, other than that HITBTC is awful and has a lot of problems.

I was just going to say, as far as I know and have seen they are paying people out. The only thing that is fraud like or horrendous is how much they are charging for deposits and withdrawals. That kind of highway robbery may work for a couple months, but your product is going to suffer hard once consumers go elsewhere. Once I found that out, I vowed if the coin is listed anywhere else I will trade there. Only will I reluctantly trade on HitBTC now, I don't think that is what they wanted but it is what they get now.

Recently I'm hearing a lot of bad stuff (high deposit and withdraw fees, withdrawal problems, bad support, ...) about hitbtc. Personally, I prefer to stay away when there's bad air...

I agree with you. I have a problem with hitBTC I Deposit some token to hitBTC the transactions are complete but the total coins are zero.
I try to send a ticket support but no response until now. So I think HitBTC is fraud.

I don't know anything about this issue, but if there is really that kind of fraud, you should immediately start a lawsuit against them without waiting. If you wait that is going to be worse.

So... if you don't know much about the situation, why bother sticking 2 cents?

Triple check guys because I have cashed out my bitcoin's yesterday only. This exchange is good one and always helped me perform the trades smoothly. I have been analysing my portfolio on the HitBtc since long and it keeps giving me the real time data perfectly.

Is there problem with withdrawal of coins? Oh no way because I use it regularly and I get my coins on desired address on time. So you guys might need to study the exchanger once again and check if you are following the protocol properly. Don't forget you have to confirm the mail links whenever you cash out. Just in case if you missing the steps and not getting the coins.

I don't like Hitbtc after my negative experiences in past few months.

BUT the OP post is pure FUD without any evidences.

HitBTC is even trying to improve themselves, introducing a Live Network stat tool. I'm even considering to give them a second change in a month or two if they continue the improvements.

I am using hitbtc also I am having a problem about withdrawal of XEM till 7th of MArch it is pending.
But I can say that this is a problem related with XEM itself not exchange.
I sent and withdraw many times and used exchange often. Also interface is fine.
In generaly I can say that it is not a fraud and they are trying to serve

Like this news has been around for any longer but i dont know whether its true or not.
But so far many people never have this problem in the exchange. But like you told us, hope the suffered people about the exchange can get their solution.

What exactly they stole from you?, how, did they respond to your tickets?
We don't really know where they are from but I think that they are chinese exchange or located somewhere else but the devs and team are chinese people, anyways please prove that they stole money from you, in fact we can't do anything but at least taking attention to people to not leave the money there.
I moved the funds from there few months ago and hopefully there was nothing wrong and the process went just perfectly but recenly I'm seeing people that are having issues with withdrawals.

Yeah! That is right i was wondering why we have to support with his problem they don't have any proof or shared link opposing exchange site HitBtc having like that. I personally will not support from your lawsuit organization unless you have a strong evidence. I will wait exchange site side in there centiment about this problem and after that i support each one of you.

I remember somewhere last year I had to wait for almost 3 weeks to have a deposit reflect on my account, never used them ever since,

but with your case not sure how far this has gone but did you try to get in touch with their support team to get an answer for this mishap?

HITBC was my first exchange when I began trading.
I often heard that people don't like Hitbc, but I never had any issue with them.
Maybe they have some problems delays etc, but hard to believe that exchange which is one of the biggest by volume is stealing money.

I have an account in Hitbtc so far everything is ok.  Do you have proofs of your accusations? How much did they stole? There are lots of these from reddit, how about joining them instead.

I also traded a lot on HitBTC and did not have any problems. HitBTC is a great commercial site specially it allows to create multiple wallets in one account for a kind of crypto which is feature i like of it. Maybe the management team of HitBTC does not support the investors so it has not received much support in recent times.

What's the real problem here? Why would file a lawsuit for no reason at all I'm saying this because you're too vague in your statement. What are the details of the problem your facing? Maybe we could help and find some solution that could not lead to lawsuit anymore.in my conclusions i think you are having some issues on their system maybe some malfunctions that can be solved through a proper way of reporting the problem to their support section.

Maybe you should provide some proof here, I have had a bad experience with hitbtc but it was already resolved.
I know they process very slow and they charge huge withdrawal fees especially on Altcoins, please be specific mate so we can help you.

Used them a while back for converting some of my tokens for BTC. All went well on my end, no complaints here.

Maybe they're dealing with huge volumes of support request that's why they can't reply to your queries. This happened with a lot of other exchanges previously too.

Surely people have lost a lot of money so they newly formed a group to litigation hitbtc. My account is not hacked and I still keep $ 28 for me.
I will participate in your event and hope you will get back the money you lost. But first, let me know when you lose and why you lost your property. I can guess it's a hacker or a hitbtc scam.

I also doing trading in hitbtc and I don't find any problem  until my last withdrawal of eBTC last 2weeks my withdrawal was not credited to my account almost 3 days and i decided to cancel but good thing it was credited to my account. the problem with hitbtc technical support doesnt immediately reply it takes 1week forcmy report for their first reply it seems thst if you have problem they can't solve it due to longer time reply with your query

Maybe there is something wrong with Hitbtc. Maybe, we should somehow observed it in few more days if the issue will be solved.  Better that we should hold until everything in Hitbtc will be fixed.

Actually they always make their traders to become disappointed especially when it comes in fees almost all moves has fee in hitbtc and this almost 1 months since they have maintenance about deposit and withdrawal over 60-70% of tokens/coins.This one is really hard to those investors and also to those campaigns they need to consider the  problem of hitbtc and they cant do anything about it.

I was leaving HitBTC since Jan, 2018. The fee of deposit was too high, that is suck. even the withdrawal was nothing mush issue for me, but yes their support was bad, i will not recognize to put your asset there for doing trading even you are small investor.

So many issues on hitbtc, but lately I used this exchange all are working fine. Deposits and withdrawals are in place, since you have issues send an email to them.

I don't understand actually what you mean that Hitbtc is fraudulent. If you face any kind of miss case you can give message to support team of Hitbtc. i think they will solve your problem. I did not find any problem when i made transaction on it.

I don't like the interface, it's the worst, freezing bad I would never use it unless the coin I want is on hitbtc

I also have experience with hitbtc, it has been more than 2 months my deposit has not received into my hitbtc account, and I've sent 3 tickets, but they just told me to wait and be patient. until now my token has not been received yet. I suggest do not use hitbtc to trade. it's better to be cautious and better to use other exchanges to trade...

Their Blogpost looks funny today, since they justified introducing their horrendous fees by pointing at mempool sizes and network fees.

Who are both down back to reasonable levels again. Now guess about them taking back their "Deposit Fees" ever again?
Will stay like 100 USDT for a single buck deposit, right? Forever?

Byebye HitBTC have a nice life.

Thanks for this useful information. I considered using this exchange in the future to sell some of my tokens. But now I doubt that will be sending my assets there.

They do not even answer questions by mail.
I do not like.

Yeah i heard a lot of bad feedback about hitbitc too , i try use it some times and i was lucky without scamming , but i will not use it again in future to keep my money in safe.

A large and reputable floor, but perhaps I also review the transaction will be on HITBTC

I am really trying to see how this whole lawsuit of a thing is going to play out. It is a free world and anyone who does not already know by now that HitBTC is fraudulent as well as Yobit and they still keep using them, then they should have themselves to blame. What is there to prove anyway? It is an information age, and people should always try to check for reviews before they end up in any exchange.

Everything about this exchange is zero and despite the fact that they have no support and then you have no one to complain to in case anything goes wrong is shitty. What perturbs me is that you keep telling people and they still keep using it anyway, I wonder why a lot of people just would not listen to simple warnings and would rather prefer to do their own thing the way they want, only to get nabbed and trying to file a lawsuit.

I did not find any good news about HitBTC.
this seems to confirm that no exchanger is really safe to trade. After the binance then it is the last belief.
Do not store assets in the exchanger.

OP, can you please tell us what is the issue you are facing which led to this lawsuit? It will help to warn other forum members.

I know that the withdrawal fees are high in Hitbtc, but I am withdrawing without a problem.

Try to get their company name and adress where they located, I can join with you to defend them since it all shows fake stats on their exchanges.

It wasn’t my first choice in exchanging my coins with,, but i don’t experience so tragic issues or problem about withdrawing in it.. We can’t stop you from doing so,, it is your human right and if you have reason to do so,, then in legal battle if you have proof,, do it.. I will do the same if I have the reasonable issues to tackle in a legal way.. Post any evidence here,, so others with same problem will support you..

Support really? If you know anything about HitBTC, then you will know that support has been dead a very long time ago. I still wonder till today why people use them and the other shit exchange they call Yobit. For the OP anyway, there is no point filing a lawsuit, just move out, forget all you have lost and forget. Keep spreading the gospel though so other users may know beforehand if they want to consider making use of the platform.

My issue before has been solve by hitbtc support when they notice it and I can't blame them to act slow since most provably their system has been splendid by deposit/withdrawal errors but if you can't stand to trade with them then much better that you step out on that exchange. Since for me as long as the coin which I looking for will be added first on them I will stay and go trade with careful plays.

yes the withdrawal fee in hitbtc exchange is very high compared to other reputable exchange website. Also the fee of depositing other altcoin is also high, you will be paying as much as 50 bucks for just deposit fee. Better to use other exchange like binance, poloniex or kucoin exchange.

Push it hard!
Damn that exchange is really robbing the hell out of all the users. That is the first exchange that I have seen which takes a deposit fee rather than inviting more people to come in with a lower transaction fees.
A damn greedy environment there. No need to fill the details. Just try to deposit one altcoin in there and you will see how much they will take from you.
That is just the deposit part then they will take more from the withdrawal. It's nonsense.

The lawsuit will be if this is not done out of a personal interest and just to help the mass recovery some of the coins that was loss due to some mistakes made by the hitbtc managers.  I have a problem with them Last after transferring a token there and I was charge an unbelievable amount for just deposit and since then I am very careful how I operate with them.

I am also quite disappointed about HitBTC, its transaction fee is very high and not good support for investors. For a time I did not use HitBTC to trade anymore. I currently use 2 commercial sites, Binance and Kucoin because it has low cost and good foundation.

Id rather prefer Kucoin or Binance compared to HitBtc.Ive been using this exchange wayback before when deposit doesn't have still a fee but now they do charge up a fee everytime you do make a deposit which is a total robbery for us traders.Imagine how much money they would accumulate in all traders that do make use of the site? Why would suffer on fees if there are actually much lesser and much better in terms of service.

I too have noticed very high withdrawal fees the only time I have used it. I couldn't avoid using it because the coin I was interested in was listed only there. But I'll try to avoid using it again like hell.

I dont understand that your problem with HitBTC in detail.  I used this exchange and so far i dont have any problem with them, deposit, trading activity and withdrawal running smothly. I have only 1 issue with them, why they dont distributed airdrop of ignis until now, i need it to recover loss in NXT.

The only problem i see in hitbtc is because you can sell all your tokens or coins below ten pcs for example: if you are holding 66 tokens you can only sell 60 tokens and the 6 remaining tokens will goes to nothing anymore and this is not good you cant sell and you can withdraw that tokens too. I think in this way they are stealing people’s money.

Like you I tried hitbtc even my friends told me that I shouldn't use that but I still use it and my transaction went smoothly so i must say that we should try it before saying anything. Better to see it for ourselves. Though their fee is making me crazy every time I use it but still fine with me as I use it just rarely.

I use Hitbtc almost 2 years and never hear about this one, if Hitbtc stealing from you I believe most people will take action about it but I see wind blow, just pass like nothing happen. You don't have to start lawsuit or what ever you name it, just write true data about what happen go to social media, publish and public will give respond. Writing here, specially about this will give you nothing. I do love Hitbtc.

Any exchange that does not have support, do not care about the users and just keeps stealing from people should be avoided like plague. I am not sure if there is anyone that will be willing to join the OP in his lawsuit, but the best lawsuit is to keep warning people and those who want to listen will listen and those who ends up not listen apparently deserves whatever they get. No one is coerced into using a shitty exchange, so why use them?

Most of these exchanges are cheating investors. They are not fair in their dealings. Only a few of them are good ones such as Bittrex and Binance. I have been using these two exchanges for such a long time without any problems. For the last six months, Binance has been doing very well. It has got a lot of positive feedback. As far as Hitbtc is concerned, I think It has got some problems.
