I dont think computers have the true ability to create random numbers. Reminds me of years ago, I entered a grand draw and only bought 1 ticket but it was the very last ticket sold and yep I won the grand prize even though most other people were buying dozens of tickets; but I didnt complain ! :p That was a 086 though, no doubt things are more complicated now but I think its a fundamental thing computers lack
Could also be that user was buying a heck of alot of tickets.
Both true lots of tickets and nothing computerized is truly random. However after reviewing the code he won fair and square.

We were quite surprised ourselves! I assure you we reexamined the code and added a new rule preventing the last week winner from entering again. It was legitimate though improbable.

Cryptsy but I am a tad biased..... Being US based and subject to the scrutiny legally etc that we are keeps us in check.

So is ssn required or not for usd deposit?
Clear this up for me.
This is the entire process listed below..... So no you do not submit your SSN#
|
|
|
I trust Cryptsy enough to let them hold my alts and such. However, I would in no way trust them enough to give them my SSN. Even if they don't mean to do anything bad with it, hackers may. Trust others not only by their willingness, but also by their ability to remain secure.
We do not ask for anyone's SSN#

The btc-e trollbox speculators look like dinosaurs now from ages ago. They discuss Litecoin and why it's falling ad nauseum without realizing that there is a whole new PoS world brewing two clicks away that btc-e didn't present to them Well said. Yea, BTC-E is just lagging behind, they are stuck in the past, and resist change. Odd that they don't take the 1000's of bitcoin extra daily volume they would get by adding some new coins, no? It is very odd, maybe their just too lazy to add new coins? They feel as if they get enough $ from already? Idk, but that exchange is becoming more of a mystery to me. Carrying all the extra coins brings a ton of extra overhead and issues I am sure that plays a ton into it.

why verification needed to trade with usd?
I was also going to this question but already posted now waiting for reply from OP about this why verification is must for this Its the Law simply put. If we did not the feds could seize funds etc etc. Much like Gox had their US accounts frozen back in the day. Thanks for reply and clearing its mean now I am going to do verification of my account Glad to clarify!

..................... I looked through some old support tickets, and some people have been waiting over a month for their withdrawal. That's just so unacceptable. I'm really furious about it. I did send in a support ticket, but I haven't heard from them yet. Others are waiting OVER 2 MONTH, and Cryptsy doesn't give a flying fuck........ @BitJohn. What about PHS withdrawals from MAI?? When should this issue be fixed? PM me Ill hunt it down though its totally unrelated.
|
|

This issue should be fixed if your still having the problem PM me sorry for the inconvenience.
Nope. It's not fixed yet. No NXT anywhere. I'll send a PM. @Bizmark13--I wouldn't try to withdraw it. I would sell it, transfer the balance to Bter and buy it. Every exchange has problems, but this one is REALLY frustrating. Or you could wait until they really have the problem fixed. http://87.230.14.1/nxt/nxt.cgi?action=100000

Currently its a check though we will have more options in the near future such as ACH.
If we live local can we just come and pickup the checks instead of waiting on the mailman? Mail service in south Florida is the worst. haha Ill ask.... Not sure though kinda could muck up the process.

Crypsty has issues, but nothing that requires running to the Gov't. They are (until proven otherwise) a top-tier exchange and one of the only ones where your funds are probably safe, compared to ~98% of the other options.
Really ? These people do not give a flying fuck about us. If this is allowed to happen, what else will we learn if/when they get audited ? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=310335.msg4878420#msg4878420Horus (cryptsy admin), aka. Jdtmp4 (crypty's troll box hobo) I am a Cryptsy admin now.
lolz if Horus is BigVern and/or BitJohn. All different folks drive on down to Florida pop into the office and visit the other 30 employees Really pretty simply. We are the only exchange that is public and accessible in the scene really so trying to make us anonymous is well silly really.

Congrats on getting them opened. Pretty weak marketing though. Maybe you need to hire someone to handle that stuff for you. Shouldn't there be a big banner on the home page bragging about it, or even some tweets in the feed and blog posts about USD/XXX? Even the about page hasn't been updated. No mention of it on the Cryptostocks listing either... and this was a the whole point of that offering. Is Project Investors fully licensed in the USA now? Need BTC for FIAT now? CampBX or use my referral save money LOL HAHA good catch As far as the marketing we will hit it harder when we have more payment and deposit options in the US

I had to reset my password to enable 2FA today, and when I tried to withdraw the funds I'd sent via block #309615, the transaction never confirmed and just stayed at "pending" - despite the fact that it had only been 14 blocks since my deposit. I contacted Cryptsy support to find that they locked my account for 24 hours due to the password change, despite the fact that nowhere on the site does it say this is the site policy.
I offered to supply all the necessary documentation required to prove my identity, but all I received was a curt "sorry, there's nothing we can do."
In a post-Gox world, you'd better do a hell of a lot more than that to prove your solvency. So I also filed a report with the Florida attorney general's office because fuck this shit, I am not playing cute little games with these exchanges anymore.
A 24 hour password reset freeze is a good security measure. We are not the only exchange to employ it. Not sure what that has to do with this thread anyhow. Let me get this straight you are "filing a complaint" because we locked your funds for 24 hours for diligence? My bank once held funds for 45 days..... Best of luck to you.

So can you convert BTC to USD or is it just USD to BTC?
Both of course.

Starting a new official Cryptsy thread where I will put any news and updates. Notice its moderated to keep out the trolls and to actually try and keep it useful. Rules1. Do NOT post "I want to add this coin or check out my coin etc. Its clutter" a. I check the announcement forums regularly. 2. DO NOT get mad if I delete something in this thread maybe I am just cleaning it up to keep it relevant to the topic. 3. Do post detailed feature requests I would love to hear em. 4. Do not put support issues in this thread as they belong in tickets or if you must PM myself or one of the other agents on the board they will likely help you out. 5. Do monitor for official news and events. Thanks excited about giving this a whirl and seeing if we can get some good conversation and news updates.
