Title: Dash dropped from Changelly?
Post by: The Sceptical Chymist on May 29, 2018, 06:27:41 AM
I made a thread about this yesterday in Altcoin Discussion, which looks to have been deleted--and it got no replies anyway, which isn't surprising since 99% of posters in that section are just looking for an easy place to post their garbage.

Anyway, I wanted to exchange a small amount of bitcoin for Dash on Changelly yesterday and noticed that Dash is no longer in their drop down menu.  Does anyone know if they've officially ditched Dash?  There's nothing on their website that I can find, and I haven't seen anything about it on bitcointalk.

Nothing officially announced about it from their blog or Twitter. I know they had technical issues some days ago with the transactions, perhaps a reason they removed Dash temporarily?. they also removed Verge but it's because some mining pools were under DDOS attack

Dash is under maintenance at the moment. Please don't worry, it will be restored as soon as possible.

Changelly does accept Dash, but they have removed it temporarily while they do some maintenance. Tao of Satoshi contacted them recently and that was their response.

Awesome, thank you.  I thought it was odd that Dash just disappeared altogether, suddenly.  I'm not a fan of Twitter and don't use it, so there's no way I would have figured that out without asking.  I am a big fan of Changelly, because they're so easy to use and ShapeShift won't service US customers anymore because of some KYC thing, and I would have hated to see them not include Dash in their coin offerings.  It's one of the only altcoins I like (don't flame me for that, please).

Reddit is another site I can't stand, but I'll take a look at that thread just for the hell of it.  Thanks for the link, and thanks for the answer.

Edit:  As an aside, it figures my question would get answered here as opposed to Altcoin Discussion.  About a minute after I made the thread, it got buried on page 3 after a flood of shit-topics quickly came along.  That section is ridiculous.
