Caution! Support Poloniex ignores your ticket if there are any errors in transactions. I have issued a ticket according to their rules. This ticket has been ignored by them for more than a month. Support Poloniex pretends that this ticket does not exist.  I doubt it's them ignoring your support ticket but rather there is just so many problems with their platform that there has been a huge backlog of tickets waiting to be processed and yours is probably of quite low priority. Poloniex is a buggy exchange at best and a scam at worst, speaking at this point. I've got coins stuck their too. If you have any balance in poloniex you should consider it gone, whatever you withdraw is really coins that you have earned. Don't expect a timely response from support, and don't send in multiple tickets without some time in between, otherwise it'll lead to their system being more flooded. |

I was asked to create and manage a thread of an upcoming ICO project. It looks legit to me, but the team members are not mentioned on the website (the only suspicious thing about it). I can't be 100% sure if the project is not going to scam people (including me) and I noticed that mainly the promoters of the project (=ones moderating the ann thread) are those who get negative trust in case something goes wrong. However, I would not be related to the project and not be the one who would scam people in case something goes wrong. Can I lead the thread and ensure not getting neg trust in that unpleasant case or it just doesn't work this way and I have to take full responsibility for the team's actions? I would really like to hear answers from trusted forum members who know how these things work on this forum.
Thanks in advance!
If you have this concern already, then it means that this platform may be shady in the first place to even initiate your suspicions that it may go to scam. And that would be enough for you to stop and go no further with the project. Unless you make it very clear that you do not endorse the project and it may be a scam, and invest at your own risk, blah blah blah, then you *may* be safe from negative ratings. It's what some people do with their signatures. Otherwise, if the platform goes scam, you as the main promoter/ANN poster is probably going to be negged as well. |

Recently wanted to trade some altcoins and i picked poloniex(stupid me), i did make a pretty nice return on my investment but at the end when i cashed out my alts into bitcoin and wanted to withdraw, it kept saying awaiting approval. Now after 3 weeks the amount just simply returned to my account, and the withdrawal history vanished. My ticket number is well above 700k so i wouldn't be expecting anything soon. I'm also using a legacy verified account, which would require verification soon or i wouldn't be able to withdraw. It's a sticky situation. AT least this amount is something that i can afford to lose, if you want to trade at poloniex, don't put in anything you can't afford to lose. Situations like fake txids and stuck deposits and withdrawals are happening every day. |

Their website is registered in the USA with a real persons info (it's not hidden) and they are associated with an IT support company called Globe Technotonics LLC which has a Facebook page and reviews. Registered to the same address. Their prices seem ok but the t9 seems very cheap which is why I was hoping it was real.
I called Globe Technotonics and that have legit customer support altho it seems to be outsourced to india. Their fb page references articles on Bitcoinearnmoney.com
What do u guys think?
With the high volume of miner-related scams recently i would not take the chance. Just because they did not hide their info doesn't mean that they couldn't have used another person's info or just completely false info to register their domain. Why would you even take the chance when you can buy the same things on forum with escrow or from a known to be legit source that wouldn't scam you? If you're going to give up your money this easily then it would be a surprise if you have any left in a few years time, especially if you're luring in the crypto scene. Their site is at best mediocre. PRobably used an existing template for cheap or free. The only thing worth reading is probably their articles on site which isn't even relevant to this discussion. |

Assuming that those who freaked out were those who invested during the heights of bitcoin. Many were interested investing during that time because they wanted to join the boat. But eventually many are spending today.
Because it's holiday season and those who invested were left on the boat. But it's not right to freak out. Hold, no bitcoin value will get lost as long as you hold you know. Wait for it to get higher.
As an advice, try to hold if you really don't need the money yet. If you don't have the choice, then don't pull out all of it.
Exactly. I think that people who invested in the past month or so thinks that bitcoin is something that will amke them a profit no matter what situation. They haven't seenany major crashes during that time, and now they're panic dumping thinking that it's all downhill from here. These new, inexperienced investors are the ones that are mostly panic dumping at this point. Truth is, this seems just fine. Around a 30-40% loss of value is going to be a big hit on traders but that's definitely not the end of the bull run for sure. Keep in mind that we were inches away from breaking $20k per bitcoin, and it is extremely likely that in a few weeks we'll see the trend reversal, and by that point the same people who dumped right now will be the first ones buying back in at a higher price. |

Firstly, him giving you negative trust for what you did(ask a $5500, without valid collateral loan as a newbie on the forum), is completely valid. If you are just butthurt because Vod gave you that feedback, it is standard procedure for him and he does it to every single newbie that asks for outrageous amounts of BTC as a loan.
He didn't have any business to do with you anyways...
I can't find the post now but it makes no sense when he hasn't lent you any money and he is threatening you, and based on everyone's reactions on this thread i think it is clear that Vod was joking. No way was he actually gonna bother go to your house or anything, lol.

BTC has fallen too fast. What do you think about the current market? Should I wait for BTC $ 8k and buy?
I doubt it very much. In my opinion you should have bought at $13k or even right now. Below $16000 should be a good value to start buying for the short-medium term, assuming that the correction comes by the end of the year. The best strategy is actually buying a bit at a time instead of trying to time your entry point completely right. Let's face it - at the lowest point you're probably going to freak out and not buy any, and try to wait a few more days. It's almost impossible to predict what the low is but it's certainly not going to be below $10k for this time. Start buying with 20% of your capital every single day, for 5 days. That's risk minimalisation for you. |

Just wait. And keep contacting support until they respond. There isn't a whole lot you can do in this situation, if your transaction is indeed confirmed. Another thing you could potentially do is reply to cex.io on twitter, reply to their tweets and tag them in it. People seem to have some degree of success with that. Should have done your research before you deposited funds into their system, however. I've probably seen around 10 threads at least made about cex.io withdrawals and deposits being delayed for no reason. We will try to find out what is the reason and ensure that you receive your BTC.
Still pending after so many days, I used to have my BTC sold already, price are lower now...  It is very annoying the situation that you are going through and the fact that they take a long time to respond and solve your case becomes even more worrying, you already have losses because of this problem and the question is if they will compensate you still stuck in CEX.IO
You have to be calm and if a few days your problem is not solved, so you must create a thread in this section: Scam AccusationsI know, but last time when I withdrawal USD from CEX.IO it took about 30~40 days to completer, so maybe they are just slow as hell, I would wait a bit more I think this is a different issue: with the fiat I can imagine problems with the banks, but in this case, the blockchain clearly says that the transaction has got multiple confirmations. Either they are just holding back our BTC for whatever reason, or there is an issue with their software. In both cases, they are responsible for that, thus *they* make us lose money. Still no reply and stuck in CEX.IO, I will surely not use it again after this Yep, if you don't feel comfortable with using a particular exchange, then don't use it. |

They literally copied the entire site design of confirmtx.com which is another scam. They claim to be a miner with a lot of hashpower but failed to produce any sort of proof whatsoever to indicate that is actually true.
They're charging $15 per transaction, so even if they were indeed accelerating your transactions they probably just copied and patsed your transaction into the viabtc or antpool transaction accelerator and made a $15 profit every time.
These accelerators have just gotten too far. Only trust the main ones like viabtc, antpool(which are free anyways) and btc.com.

I AM SICK & TIRED OF CROOKED GOV TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE POOR Is anyone willing to Lend me 5,500 I need 500 for Xmas and 5000 for an investment as collateral I have either some land or my website...as for the investment I will be Teaching 15 young poor dominican students how to trade in bitcoin so they can pass it on I have a select group of young poor children that live in shacks and either have to hustle drugs or rob people at gun point to feed thier selves i they will be calling company's up and explaining why it is vital to there business that they accept bitcoin and all crypto currencies I will also be looking for some type of accounting software VERY USER FRIENDLY to help manage there buys and sales I live in dominican Republic and i know it is alot of money to ask for But if anyone would like to talk please contact me ASAP https://blockchain.info/payment_request?address=1529zvP7S8eosQ74MVWjceAHnoXEVsnYPB&amount=0.3527&message=Thank%20you%20for%20your%20helpLand is not acceptable collateral, unless somebody lives in the same country that you do is able to go through the hassle of doing all the paperwork and transfer the land into their possession. Otherwise it's impossible to do this internationally basically. Websites are usually not considered to be valid collateral, either. They can be recovered via SE and the value of websites is completely subjective and it's hard to sell it when you want to do so for the lender. As much as i support your cause, it's just too big of a risk for lenders here to carry. $5k is no small amount of cash, and i think you realise that. You're probably going to find better luck from asking a bank or something. |

I have the same with RDD coin now. Minimum trade amount is well over 3000RDD, that's over $30? Looks to me as if the minimum Satoshi amount has doubled once more?  Had the same with XVG the other day. I also am a small trader, and I can't really do the trades I want anymore.. As i've said before, it's simply because the price of reddcoin has been absolutely pumped to the moon and bittrex hasn't changed the minimum order value. Before the pump 3000 RDD was around 0.0005-0.001 BTC, which was close to 0.001, but now after the pump it is worth 0.002 btc and that's why everyone is complaining about it. Read the support article. It's all written there. Your minimum has to satisfy both the native currency requirements(aka 3000 RDD) and 0.001 BTC, for a trade to be valid and put onto the orderbook. |

Minimum Trade Size: From Bittrex.com
"The minimum trade value for orders is 100,000 Satoshis (.00100000). There is also a minimum trade quantity. For example, DOGE trades at 22 satoshis. The minimum trade quantity is 4500 DOGE and the minimum trade value is 100,000 Satoshis. The smallest order in the book is 100000 DOGE at 1 satoshi each. The largest order in the book is 4500 DOGE at 2 btc each."
My understanding is you have to have 100,000 Satoshis (.00100000) to make a purchase on the marketplace, Today I was attempting to buy so XVG, I have 0.00120703 Satoshis but when I make the order I get the error MIN_TRADE_REQUIREMENT_NOT_MET. This is super confusing. If anyone has a good way to explain where i'm going wrong here I would much appreciate it. I may even be willing to tip the person that provides an answer to my issue.
Here is what the order looked like on Bittrex.com
Quantity: 125.94272228 XVG
Price:0.00000956 BTC
Subtotal:0.00120401 BTC
Commission: 0.0000030BTC
Total: 0.00120703 BTC <------ Over 100,000 Satoshis (.00100000)
Look at the highlighted part. Apart from the minimum 100k satoshi, there is also a minimum requirement on the amount of Verge you are able to buy at one single time. I assume that it's probably something like 200-500 XVG and you haven't met that limit. As far as i know ,they want to keep that minimum trade size figure in terms of whatever altcoin you're trading in as close to 0.001 BTC as possible. However, with the pump of verge today it means that they have'nt got enough time to change the minimum verge order size. So even though you met the 0.001 BTC requirement part, you're still yet to meet the verge requirement, whatever amount it is. hope this helped. |

Hello all,
I deposited money to my Exodus wallet last night. I see the dollar/bitcoin amount in my portfolio, however, when I go to convert my bitcoin in the exchange, the usd/dollar amount status says $0.00 and I'm getting an error message of "Not Enough Funds" from Exodus.
I've reached out to the helpdesk, but they say they're at max capacity and can't respond to trouble tickets.
Is there a minimum amount for the exchange?
Is there a certain amount of time you have to wait after you deposit funds before you can exchange?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I think that if your balance is not big enough to cover the transaction fees involved with sending your transaction then it will show up as a balance not sufficient error. So try get some more funds into your address before trying again. There are definitely minimums that are set by shapeshift, to avoid dust inputs. The transactions sometimes can take a while so be patient. Usually they should be resolved in pretty quick time. If you want you can directly go to shapeshift.io to see if you can exchange, it should be the same rates. Thanks Magneto. I'll try shapeshift.io directly I do feel like though that it's probably something wrong with your actual exodus wallet like the wallet not being able to connect to a node or something along the lines of that, instead of anything on shapeshift's side. Unless you really do have that small of an amount that it doesn't even cover the minimum. Anyways, try shapeshift and see what happens. If you are sure that you have more than enough to actually conduct a trade there, just do it on their website or even deposit into an exchange or try a different instant exchanger(like changer.com, changelly(unreliable), changenow.io, etc.) |

I understand what everyone is saying here, but when I look at the transaction on the block chain, how come there are so many transactions at once but the fee shown paid is less than 2 times what I paid for one transaction?
These transactions do not get confirmed as fast as the transactions that you send from coinbase if they were indeed 2x less the fees paid. Coinbase uses whatever fee feed they use that is suitable for the current time. And you cannot change that. The transactions that you've seen are probably going to be stuck pending for hours or sometimes even days, as a matter of fact. It is not coinbase issue but due to a lot of pending transactions in bitcoin network, you need to pay a high fee to get transaction confirmation. So most of the exchanges and wallets are charging these high fees and not sure where it will going to end.
If smaller amount then you need to use other altcoins for urgent needs.
Is there another way to get it out of there? I am not paying .25% of my money to them when I do not care how long it takes to get where I want it to go. I don't use coinbase account but using XAPO account. In XAPO they allow sending another XAPO account without any fee. If that works same in coinbase then you can request any other member on this forum can help you on this matter with smaller fee amount. Good luck to you... That was what i've suggested as well. If he really wants to avoid this fee then go ahead and send the bitcoins to another coinbase user, that way he can avoid it completely. However, it is definitely not guaranteed that someone would be interested in receiving funds into their coinbase account. |

Come on guys... Not that hard to spot this one. He literally was acting all defensive about it and he flat out lied about him sending repayment to OP, yet apparently this wasn't enough evidence for Parodium to stay away from that scammer?
I understand that y'all think that $11 isn't that much to lose, but please, please, please. Take this as a lesson.
If they think that it's so easy to scam then they'll be back next time to scam some more people, just with a different account. It's not always whether you can take the risk or not. If it is an obvious scammer would you donate money to him?

Looking at the dump which is going on for last couple of days do you guys think it's the beginning of the end for bitcoin or its just one more dump and pump time for bitcoin which we have witnessed in the past ? Kindly respond with your valuable feedback considering the rise of altcoins and ICO , bitcoin being under the eyes of regulators , some rumours that most of EU will ban bitcoin starting with France.
End of bitcoin? No way dude. I think you haven't been around long enough. In the worst case scenario every time there is a dump is that the entire bubble will pop. However it is clear to anyone right now that right now bitcoin's demise is caused by the rise of altcoins, and the bubble has not popped. So in my opinion, right now under $17k is a great buying opportunity. BTC will test the $20k(rather retest) level once again and hopefully it will break it the second time round. Even if it doesn't break the $20k barrier the second time round, it will be extremely close to doing so and you'll still make a lot of profit. But as i said there is pretty much no way bitcoin is just going down like this. |

Sorry for your loss.
This is why we question the borrower even though the amounts involved may be completely negligible. When he asked for the $11 loan a lot of signs were there to indicate that he was just trying to just take the last bit of money and run.
He even requested on parodium's thread that he wanted $25 instead of the $11 promised.
So yeah... My advice to you is don't loan to people just because a) the amount is low or b) you can afford it. They'll likely backstab you and you're making a precedent for yourself as being a target.

Has the Bitcoin crash just started?
In my opinion, no. Obviously bitcoin has stopped its rise to $20k but that doesn't mean that it is not able to break it again some time in the future. In fact i believe that $20k is going to fall to bitcoin by the end of the year. These sort of dips are usual, especially if you take into account the rise of alts in comparison to bitcoin. When alts rise, usually bitcoin will go down and that is exactly what's happening. You're seeing bitcoin dominance go down under 50% which is highly artificially low. IT'll come up to 50%+ once again very soon, and bitcoin will rise while alts hype dies off. |

It seems like that every single time a fork happens with bitcoin there is a flood of these scam phishing emails. No idea how the phishers got hold of the email of people using blockchain.info though, perhaps it's just sent out to people randomly that used another bitcoin related site.
Either way, always check the legitimacy of the sender. If it's @gmail.com don't even bother, since blockchain.info obviously has their email addresses hosted on their own domain name.
Also check official announcements, search them up on google and click on the links from the actual blockchain.info site.
If you lose money from these obvious phishing emails, you've got nobody to blame than yourself.
