If that's the case then fuck their hosted 3TH plan B bullshit. If the neptune delivery slips I am getting a refund and buying BTC.
Going on previous form, by the time they actually slip, they will declare that your order is 'in production', and refuse to refund you. |

Apple's app store is nothing but a forum where merchants gather to sell products. If you were a landlord renting a space you couldn't discriminate against a legal business unless that business has done something wrong, disruptive, or illegal. Really? You think a mall doesn't have the right to choose what sort of stores is hosts? |

From several of the posted logs, it looks like it could be as simple as the pool publishing a difficultly which is actually half that of what it accepts.
Could it be that simple, an off-by-power-of-two error somewhere?

Read the case I linked. It is sufficient that monopolistic power in one market is used to restrain trade in another market in a way that has a significant effect on interstate commerce.
a) Apple don't have monopolistic power in the smartphone space b) Removing this app is so far from having 'a significant effect on interstate commerce' as to be laughable Oh, and to the OP: you would file a suit, not a suite. |

No, this is not an accidental issue. No site that gets overloaded with 1/10th their peak volume crashes and stays offline for hours at a time, while staff and insiders manipulate and continue trading during the blackout.
This is deliberate and there is indeed malice behind all of this. Right before the 502 error appeared, the site was running great. If the issue was an overload, then it would gradually start running worse.
Shrug. You are clearly convinced, and nothing anyone says will change your mind. I'll offer this from the Cryptsy twitter feed: BigVern @cryptsy 3h
Undergoing maintenance new servers and upgrades. Can experience intermittent connectivity issues. Will clear up in the next few hours. |

It is not right that corporations through the use of terms and conditions (and contract law) can circumvent peoples constitutional and human rights.
Really? You have a constitutional right to have an app available in Apple's store? Which amendment was that? |

Stop defending Cryptsy, this website is costing people tons of hard earned money, how could anyone not be against that.
This world has gone insane and standards are at an all time low.
I'm not defending them, except to the extent that I think the neverending problems that Cryptsy has are due to incompetence and lack of adequate support, not to malice. When in doubt, blame Murphy rather than Machiavelli. The standard of performance provided by Cryptsy is appalling, I don't think there has been a single week in all the time I've used them where there there haven't been major issues, and recently there hasn't been a single day without timeouts. It is telling, though, that with all this, noone has managed to provide any real competition, which suggests that it isn't as easy as people make out. |

Dude, websites with lots of load do NOT get bad gateway errors. Think you need to brush up on your HTTP skills.
The actual error is: 502 Bad Gateway
nginx http://www.nginxtips.com/502-bad-gateway-using-nginx/Many times we can browse the web and find a 502 bad gateway error at Nginx. There are a few reasons why you will find this message in your webserver log, and here we will teach you how to fix it.
When you will find 502 bad gateway error:
Nginx running as proxy for Apache web server.
Nginx running with PHP-FPM daemon.
Nginx running with other services as gateway.
Bad buffering/timeout configuration.
Before getting deep into all of this options, you must understand what does the error message means. So, the error it’s a 502 number and it’s happening at the gateway. What the hell is a gateway? In simple words, a gateway, is like an access point, a bridge that communicate one service with another, in this case the gateway can be a service/application that is working and recieving requests from Nginx web server.
Now, let’s explore each one of this reasons to understand the 502 bad gateway message:
Nginx as Proxy for Apache: in this case, the gateway is Apache. When you use Nginx as proxy for Apache, if apache dies or it’s not well configured, it can cause this 502 error. How to fix it? Most of the times, restarting apache web server will get rid of this, but you must check the log files to know why exactly this was caused.
Nginx with PHP-FPM: same as Apache example, let’s imagine your php daemon stop working, or get’s overloaded by requests, it will not work properly and the all the php requests from nginx would not be served, so, an error will appear. How to fix it? Restart php-fpm daemon and check the logs.
Nginx with other services/apps: try restarting the other service behind nginx and explore the logs to find the reason why it happened.[/qoute]
If the system nginx is talking to does not respond quickly enough, you will get the 502 error. |

Yes I think that, are you naive and gullible or something? So much evidence points to bullshit excuses for what is happening on that exchange. Look at all the others with problems. Whenever something big happens, like a new coin gets added or a country bans bitcoin, then all of a sudden Cryptsy takes a shit Because whenever this happens suddenly far more people try to trade, and they can't handle the increased volume. and people are still trading behind the scenes. Because the issue are only affecting the front-end system, and existing trades still execute, and new trades can still be placed through the API. Why don't they pause all trading while they fix the issues? Because it would cost them money. And even more people would complain that Cryptsy was screwing them. Why don't they use the ridiculous amount of money to upgrade their shitty servers? Because it's a fucking scam, that's why. No, because they don't have the staff/competence to run a site of the size and complexity that Cryptsy has become. That is an outright lie, Cryptsy is only as big as they make it. Why are they adding coins daily if they can't handle the load. Because it makes them more money. They can handle the load most of the time, but cannot handle the spikes. That makes them more money that having less coins and running at lower volume all the time. Do you think anyone would have seriously predicted the level of DOGE trading that is happening, for example? It's because they CAN handle it, they are just throttling the connection to fuck people over.
It went from 504 to running perfectly for 5 minutes, to 502 now. Which is exactly what you would expect to see if a system is under-specc'd for the peak load it is handling. Putting the paranoia aside for a moment, why exactly to they want to "fuck you over"? How does that make them money? Is it really really annoying when you get 502 and 504 errors? Yes. Does it happen to me too? Yes. Do I think that BigVern is out to get me? No. |

You see this all the time when mining pools are being DDOS'd. The frontend servers can't handle the load, and new miners can't authenticate, but people already mining can carry on find. Should mining pools shut down completely in that situation, because it would be more fair? Why don't they pause all trading while they fix the issues? Because it would cost them money. And even more people would complain that Cryptsy was screwing them. Why don't they use the ridiculous amount of money to upgrade their shitty servers? Because it's a fucking scam, that's why.

A week ago, there was a post from a cryptsy dev that they made 250,000 USD in 1 week or a few days. Cite? The IPO stated: "We currently are collecting in fees over 100 BTC per month" That is less than $100,000 a month, or ~$25,000 a week, a factor of 10 out from what you are claiming. |

Well 'early' is a bit vague. Zipzap were meant to be going live in the UK 'early' this month too, but nothing so far.
http://www.coindesk.com/can-now-pay-cash-bitcoin-28000-uk-stores/Bitcoiners can now pay cash for bitcoins at 28,000 shops across the UK, thanks to a new service set up by ZipZap.
The service enables people to head to their nearest ZipZap payment location, hand over cash and see bitcoins deposited in their wallets almost instantly.
Currently available via Bittylicious, BuyBitcoin.sg and BIPS Market, the service will go live with ANXBTC and ANXPRO next week, followed by Kraken, CoinMKT and BTCX.se. |

Do you have a BusinessSelect Checking or BusinessClassic Checking account?
Those are the account types affected by the November limit.

this is a very good idea, there is not reason why an exchange could not publish all BTC received and thats verifiable. This would attract a lot more confidence to that exchange and thus volume. Is it really verifiable? You have no way of knowing whether transfers out of a wallet are customer withdrawals, transfers to another exchange wallet, or siphoning off of funds. |

Their website says: Please note that completion of our main website will be in early February 2014. It is early February now. |

I think that is quite a big deal for adoption, although it does look like you pay about 3-3.5% in fees for using the service.
From the ZipZap site, it looks as though they will soon be offering the service directly themselves, rather than having to use a separate Bitcoin site, that might lower fees.

I would disagree that Nov of last year is very old news. The story is from October. Almost four months ago. In cryptocurrency terms, that is a very long time. Additionally, how do you know that this is not an effort to stem a bank run?
When Chase will accept an unlimited amount of cash as a deposit, and then restrict that same client to amounts of $50,000 being withdrawn......I would say "read between the lines". They are trying to prevent a bank run. They will allow you to withdraw whatever you want, as long as you pay for a more premium account. I would say that is a way of screwing more fees out of their customers. Perhaps if you got your news from a slightly less biased site? |

Mtgox can't stop withdrawals as and when they wish. It is our coins! We decide when to withdraw.  Unfortunately the reality is that they aren't your coins, because you don't control the wallet they are stored in. You gave Bitcoins to MtGox, they gave you an IOU in return. You were trusting them to honor that IOU, and therefore valued it the same as the Bitcoins you transferred to them. That may have been a mistake. |

This is very old news, and was nothing to do with a 'run on the bank', but was an effort to force business to switch to higher-fee account types. |
