I was holding some good amount of token and ethereum in cryptopia still we couldn’t able to withdraw from exchange hope it will be sort out and we will get our fund back . If anybody having insight any genuine please let us know in this thread.

They applied a "haircut" to all clients having BTC=16%, ETH=100% and LTC=30%, i think the number are correct, you can check on their site. For a week or so they enabled withdraw to some of their coins, only during working hours.

Just withdraw your coins and stay away from their scam exchange, also from https://assetylene.com/ (https://assetylene.com/) exchange, which is their re-branded version.

They are creating new wallets. Because old ones carries risk about leak. But they've just open BTC wallets withdraw&deposits already. So you can trade with BTC or ETH and then you can withdraw if you want.

You can not withdraw your ethereum token yet since they haven't opened the withdrawal for those coins. The only things you could withdraw in the NZ working hours is BTC, LTC, and DOGE based on the latest Cryptopia tweet. If you have further question you better post on their ANN thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1669443.0

How do you know it's their exit-scam?, and the new re-branded exchanges sites is backed by the official Cryptopia team? It seems irrational, and I believe its just some impersonator that use Cryptopia UI theme.

I had a very small investment in Cryptopia. In the current confusion, I don't even check my account. I'm gonna get my money back in the future when its safe.

Another lesson that proves true the old adage that if you don't own the Private Keys you don't own the coins. Why anyone would still keep coins on an exchange when this has happened time and time again is beyond me. I won't keep my coins on any exchange beyond them being tied up in a trade. I would not even keep my coins on Binance or Coinbase. You never know what can happen and there is no deposit insurance.

I visited that site some days ago to withdraw the little token I have there, fortunately I was able to log in but I didn't see any withdrawal option for my tokens. This is really sad cos that token is gaining grounds and it will be painfully to watch my gains go like that. I hope the cryptopia dev does something soon.

I have proof it's the same team, I will send you a private message where you can check by yourself.

My funds also stuck at cryptopia, i have some bitsend coins in my wallet there and i can't withdrawal and deposit. The status always maintenance and it's been weeks no update. I lost faith for this exchange to be honest, just leave this shitty exchange and never deposit to this site.

Based on their tweeter account. That has been for almost 2 weeks now. There is still no clear statement that has been given away by cryptopia about this problem.

"Please ensure you only deposit to newly generated deposit addresses. Deposits to old Cryptopia addresses will not be covered."

I withdrew my bitcoins last week and got paid yesterday so the site is working. They are yet to enable deposits of other altcoins which will take a lot of time (may be by June hopefully) but I also have some CLM balance which they need to payback.

Despite past problems on this exchange, the work is getting better. I think over time, all problems will be eliminated and solved. I also have some funds on cryptopia.

it looks very similar with WEX exchange site. WEX has already stolen a lot of money from the users and they were doing rebrand to the velvet exchange site.
I hope you can send me information regarding it too. Im interested in it. Rebranding is not a new case in the crypto.

Cryptopia is living off the fact that it has been around for ages.

The actual exchange itself is ridiculous. Altcoin wallets I've traded with consistently have maintenance issues with cryptopia, while other exchanges are sorted within hours.

what did you mean about they applied a haircut ? then, what about other coins,, because i have few amount of other coins at cryptopia mate
anyway how did you know if assetylenecom is a rebranded version from cryptopia ?
thank you

I think there is no issue with the cryptopia exchanger and their services are good for traders and investors and their support is quicker with a problem with the exchanger or with bugs and their withdrawal and security are fast on their exchanger there was a news report that there were thieves entering the exchanger and accessing the cryptopia exchanger and the million stolen token was painful to think of it because stolen hackers were important tokens with potential and longterm so badly the losses were investors and cracked cryptopia token because their tokens were switched but the other token was worthless was stolen and the only important token they just stolen.

Biggest part of my belongings on cryptopia was btc and i was able to withdraw %85 of it (appearantly %15 get hacked) so for me it was a little price to pay. They will eventually let people withdraw tokens (if not hacked) so wait a little bit more.

Fortunately, I don't have too many coins in cryptopia, and if you cannot withdraw right now, perhaps, you need to wait for a while. Besides that, we need to let them fix everything, so we don't have to see a problem when we want to withdraw or deposit. I am sure that they can handle the transaction with smoothly so we can withdraw later.

I think now they are trying to increase their security level or update the code so they can prevent from the hacking that might be happening in the future.

You're right even if they are back I logged in yesterday and it is true that I have my lost bitcoin there but I cannot withdraw anything yet. I think in the coming months, cryptopia team will solve anything regarding to their lost of coins on the hack day.

Thanks for letting us know about their new rebranded exchange assetylene.com, investors and traders will not accept a trading site that they the same team are managing, they don't care about their clients, because they failed to upgrade, their security, which is the most important thing in any exchanges.

Bad, very very bad, stay away from that exchange. Besides all those hacking and crypto stolen. Many people have experienced bad things including myself. I have had my deposit stuck, their customer support is too slow. They need three days to respond to my complaints, and then 3 more days to forward my request to their technical team, and then needs more than two weeks to actually solve my problem. That was my worst experience for customer support.

It is a pity, but at first, this exchange gave good hopes - a couple of years ago, for example.
Better not to mess with it....

Since the hack and the exit scam like attitude by the team
I lost interest in cryptopia

Perhaps they made mention of coming back; but you need to trade to earn your stored rewards perhaps
Which I am not sure of

Just move on with trade life and be wiser using a cold storage

If everyone decides to store their coins in external wallets then who will trade on those exchanges? When some of these issues happens in exchanges some persons maybe actively trading or have just made a transfer to make an exchange or something of that nature and the person automatically becomes a culprit.

I have not used this exchange so far. But as far as I have a knowledge about it, the exchange is reputed and a good exchange. After suffering a hack some months ago, it was shut down for some period. However, it opened again recently. There maybe some technical reasons or others that the exchange is suffering and due to this reasons, there maybe problems withdrawing or depositing. The exchange is good, according to reports.

You didn't use it however you claim it to be reputable, good and safe. Give me a break. They cut 16% of clients BTC, 100% of clients ETH and 30% of LTC after the "hack", also, before the hack they launched assetylene.com exchange. You need to have serious cognitive issues to make such statements after such facts.

They cut off about 14-15% BTC and also said they will rebate all customers who lost their coins. I had no ETH balance but may lost all of it and my BTC was stolen so hoping they will pay us. Other exchanges that were hacked did nothing to payback their customers. Cryptopia is atleast handling it slowly.

The only coin I have there is Bitsend, I'm lucky to have withdrawn all my coins there after the hack, they should compensate the people for the hack, they already made millions out of traders, now it's time to get back to traders that made them rich.

First of all, this is the official thread for the post-hack Cryptopia events:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5097601.0

And for your information, withdrawals have been enabled for BTC/LTC and DOGE. But there is a very long queue and it may take 2-3 days to get your withdrawal request to be processed. Other withdrawals may be enabled pretty soon.

Did you contact support and told them you want withdraw your coins? If not try contact them and try again to see when they let you withdraw and withdraw your coins to your wallet better and after you will see on what exchange to send.

I don't know if it's a strong enough evidence to acknowledge it is a rebranded version. Since it's just a discord server that created before the hack happened. After all, What is the point they create a rebranded version? Or maybe it is just an experiment and test site since I believe the front end is quite similar, and maybe so does the back end.

I think they are currently trying to secure the exchange. They will likely resume full trading once the exchange is secured. You should probably follow them on twitter to get updates on their current progress/latest developments.
https://mobile.twitter.com/Cryptopia_NZ?p=s

You need to wait for them to update each and every single wallet on their exchange before they allow withdrawal of coins. As of not only BTC, LTC and DOGES are open for withdrawal while the rest are still in maintenance mode

As far as I remember, this exchange, which used to work as a whole, was very stable, but then something very terrible happened, as far as I remember, it was hacked, after that I stopped using it, because it is dangerous.

i think they are still on recovering and generating new wallets for the better of the exchange..i just need to withdraw my token their and will never use that exchange again

This is the timeline of the events regarding Cryptopia exchange:

14th January 2019: Hackers steal millions of NZD worth of crypto and fiat from Cryptopia
15th January 2019: Cryptopia announces that it has been hacked
27th February 2019: Cryptopia gives a worst case scenario of 9.4% of funds stolen
1st March 2019: 24% of the wallets secured
4th March 2019: Read only site opened
14th March 2019: 35% of the wallets secured
4th April 2019: 50% of the wallets secured
16th April 2019: Deposits and Withdrawals enabled for BTC, LTC and DOGE.

I don't want to offend Cryptopia, and don't want to deny all kinds of initiatives they have made so far to bring their exchange back to customers. However, there are abundant exchanges in the market, so investors and traders have lots of different choices to choose place for trading. Personally, I don't have any issue with Cryptopia, since 2017, with my withdrawals, deposits, and tradings there. I fortunately did not get troubles with them with their recent terrible hacks months ago, because I withdrawn all my BTC just a month before hacks. The Cryptopia exchange has good user interface, better than lots of other exchanges, but for security reasons, I don't have plan to keep trading on Cryptopia.

I also had funds in cryptopia but it was very little, they have not given more information after the hack

I am also the member of Cryptopia exchange and at the moment only BTC withdrawal is enable in working hours so trade your coins in BTC pair and then withdraw your fund this is the only option for the time being.

Even with Segwit, withdraw via altcoins will be much cheaper than through bitcoin, in my opinion. So, if Cryptopia actually want their customers keep using their platform, keep staying in their exchange, they should do more. Of course, they have made huge loads of works to come back, and enable withdrawals for their users, but they should do more. In next few weeks or few months, if they can not bring more convenient to their users, they might fail. Let's look at Poloniex, Bittrex, which were biggest crypto exchanges, then due to their wrong strategies, and bad supports for customers just over a several months, their first position took over by Binance, and so far they even can not get it back.

I am curious, all these cryptopia shills are being paid for shilling or just plain stupid?

These are just my own perspective I think they are still struggling to refund the lost funds that's why we can't able to withdraw for now but fortunate for some coins withdraw is available now they allow this hack to happen maybe it will be repeated in the future so if I were you I will withdraw all my funds to be safe.

Then why did they scammed users of airdropped coins for months in winter-spring 2018, with withdrawals stuck in "processing"?
Then why did they created and launched a secondary exchange (assetylene.com) in October 2018?
How did they lost 100% of ETH, weren't they using a cold storage?
Why users must pay for their security breach? Even MtGox refunded users after the "hack".
Why not put a man to manually send clients money individually after the hack for the unaffected coins?
Why this ridiculous wait of 3.5 months to be able to withdraw money in BTC and DOGE only during working hours, without any coding needed for this?

It's a scam, get over it.

What you are saying has some good points, If that's the case I'm rekt, I'm following one altcoin and most of the volume is stuck there If it will turn scam my coin is probably going down with them. As an investor, I'm still hoping they will enable withdraw for my coin soon.

I think cryptopia still good exchanger despite hacked recently. They already operate right now and receiving limited deposit. They change to cold storage and i think its good to secure customers coin or token.

I think that Cryptopia will be very hard to regain past positions. Two hacking in a row dealt a crushing blow to the image of this exchange. Although I personally liked this exchange.

Do not worry your funds may not be lost. Cryptopia is considered to be the best and good exchange and it has also many reasons to believe it. Cryptopia has suffered a hack some months ago, which has been a setback for the project. But despite this, the exchange has tried to be honest and pro public by reopening it. If it had bad intention, it would not have resumed its service again. Since it has been undergoing the duo process, there might be some technical reasons.

You can already withdraw ethereum and bitcoin, because the wallet from cryptopia has recently been hacked, your funds are safe

Cryptopia was hacked like not so long time ago and unfortunately as far as I know almost all funds were stolen. They are trying to fix this issue and to find the hackers for about the last several months, but without success till now.

I believe they are working on it, because if they can't do that, they will automatically loss the trust of their users which they have built over time, most exchanges don't take their security very serious which has been alarming especially in this time when hackers are trying everything possible to make sure they are able to steal users coin since they can't be traced unlike when fiat is being stolen from an account, exchanges should be more concerned about security than banks, since they have committed themselves to being the one to hold users coin who can actually hold their coin themselves in a private wallet.

I dint get 100% ethereum means whichever ethereum I hold it in exchange that’s disappeared . I had around 1 ether in exchange you mean to say it’s gone . Sorry if am wrong.

It's gone.

Enjoy the haircut, mate.

I don't think this is possible at all. Of course, there were a lot of cases when the law managed to catch those people who stole money from the exchanges, but this happened after few years. I don’t think that in the coming year the work of the cryptopia will be restored, although I really hope so

Nope. According to them, less than 10% of the funds were stolen and the team was able to secure the remaining funds to cold storage. Now I can't confirm the accuracy of their claim, but at this point I believe them. Finding the hackers is like searching for a needle in the haystack. It is going to take a lot of time and manpower, and there is even a chance that this hacker will never be find.

Months after the hack, Cryptopia came back, and almost fully functional for their customers, so it is good by now to see they worked hard to keep their customers satisfied and by now, at least their customers might not get losses with official statements from the exchange. They still have a list of priorities to do, in which coins listed in order for the exchange to do wallet upgrades before enable functions of those coins, and allowing active tradings for them. Generally, Cryptopia have finished their priorities orderly to bring all coins listed on their platform coming back after the hack.

I do not think it would be a wise move using Cryptopia anymore. The exchange with a red flag should be avoided. They haven't addressed its customers satisfactorily so far. I wish they improve their reputation in the future. At the moment I do not see any valid reason to continue using it. Exchanges should be aware of the threats and should take precautionary measures to save their clients. This is why now people are looking forward to the decentralized exchanges in order to have their funds protected in such a scenario.

I don't think there's any way to get insight information unless someone is from the team. However, I think they will be back soon with refunding everyone's fund and start their business again.

He isn't talking about using cryptopia anymore but he is talking about his fund left in cryptopia exchange.

oh still having problem in cryptopia?, if you able to withdraw with your cryptos better to not to use that exchange again.. their security is not good, I don't think that exchange will rise up again after that hacked.

Still no answer?

cryptopia was hacked previously
I think they are one of the genuine exchange just that
They have liquidity issue imo, further add up with the hacking case

Guess, its better to move your coins there only if you wanted to trade

is cryptopia still down? I thought they have resumed activities? It's quite very long now and I expects them to be back up

I think there are a lot of people who want to know the same thing that you did and have taken action, just like the Gunbot users who are planning to take action towards the exchange itself. Taking legal action is what a registered user could do to get back somewhat possible losses that are not supposed to happen.

I'm not sure of the current situation but I think you could trade in it but still won't be able to withdraw. I know Cryptopia are replacing it with a token. Not sure how it works though.

Cryptopia is a very insecure exchanges where peoples are lost their coin at huge amount. I myself also lost some $4000 in this exchange. I lost CAPP and PKT.

Cryptopia was one of my favorite exchange, But I was moving to Binace later when Binance become hit. Fortunately, I don't have any funds stored on Cryptopia when it's hacked. For you who the coin can't be withdrawn than you need to take legal actions, however the last thing you could do is to wait them and be very patient. Hopefully, your fund is safe and will be back as soon as possible.

You should check whats going on with exchange site before making any deposit there cause the exchange was having hack problem (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=search2) which also lead to sending double payment to their users which might be the reason why they decide to pause their withdraw.
I will advice you to contact the exchange site customers support about it.



 Read the above respond and you'll get your answer.

Just last month this cryptopia exchange faced a problems to their platform were it has been under maintenance for almost a month, where it lead their traders to panic and worried. And up to now they are in progress to improve more about their exchange platform.

I do not have a date but if you want to see the progress of Cryptopia you can visit https://bloleg.000webhostapp.com/

The safe part is that the whole wallets are now Ben changed due to the compromise. So if you will be making any transaction, a new wallet will have to be generated.
This is applicable to everyone who has account on it.
I just feel it will be safer you withdraw your funds and desist from using the exchange.

I haven't heard of anything from them ever since the hack, I pray they are able to resolve their issues so that funds of users don't just go AWOL like that. And I personally don't leave funds on exchanges, no matter how little. It will be nice if you all emulate that too

You have once been loyal to them and they have served you well in the past, I don’t think it is the right time for you to fully abandoned them, I respect your decision not to use them again but there is always a trial time for everyone. That exchange you ran to today, what assurance that there is no loop hole there too that a hacker might take advantage of in future.

I believe that they have seen and learnt from their mistakes and would have put everything right, you don’t have to fully use them, you can just partially use them will little fund till the get back on their field if you don’t want them to really collapse completely.

What legal action? If you have less than 10,000 USD in cryptopia lawsuit will be the last thing you should do,. Since going into legal battle against cryptopia will take years and probably you will never see your money for a long time.

The best thing to do now is withdraw everything as soon as the withdrawal is open for other wallet
