Title: BTC-E - slow deposits at peak times
Post by: cryptohunter on November 18, 2013, 06:43:23 PM
Strange how on huge spikes coins take 10 x longer withdraw or deposit. You can loose a fortune using this as your trading exchange even if you're correct in the trade direction.

BTC-e has always been known to take ages, I think they add no fees. I've never had any issues depositing unless I left a fee out.

Well it takes 10X ages when there are any major moves. Funny thing is  5 confirms took a few mins then like an hour later still no sign of the coins. What a nightmare that place has become, and straight after the fake FTC announce i really worry about leaving any coins there anyway.

i sent some LTC to OKCoin but they don't show up there and the transaction is still not visible on the block chain.
So i`m guessing i should remain calm, as it is just stupid BTC-E Lag?

It's been over an hour

I have had BTC-E take almost ALL day in the past. Again, I don't think they add fees to outgoing TX. When you have no fee, your place in the queue (to be placed in the block) is fighting other TX that do have fees, therefore without rapid sequential blocks (and even then sometimes), your request is pushed back again and again.

Withdrawals and deposits are both broken. Just wonderful, isn't it?

Well, technically not broken. They just aren't paying the pennies for the TX fee so it's getting stuck in the void for a while.

You and mcxNOW - it's a sorry tale :(  

You're obviously wealthy in your own right, i would forget your beef with RS,  it will eat away at you.  You should be in a good mood since i would guess you own a vast amount of LTC with 500MH of scrypt at your command and probably a ton of BTC. Whenever i see you ranting it regards RS or mcxNOW. Just focus on the fact that you're doing well, and not worry too much about others.

I've yet to use the place, so couldn't say how good it is. I stick with Cryptsy for the most part now that their site seems to be running okay. For trades into USD i like BTC-E. Don't like missing huge spikes because i have to wait 10X longer than usual for my coins to arrive. Coins arrived but 'the top' was gone by then. Still holding for now.

BTC-E is great usually but they need more resources for peak trading moments.
