@Crestington YES.. a few weeks back he said eh [NEWS] BitJohn Leaves Cryptsy + InterviewThat will give you a summary and a link to his original quote. I think we have to give some respect to the man.. i never agreed with him and i complained a lot. But his leaving is big news i thought.. and he does deserve some respect i figure. EDIT:It's silly to think his leaving was a non issue and no one really cared or even commented.. WOW ! According to BitJohn, Horus was also no longer employed at Cryptsy, replaced with some other dude named Horus, with Horus I returning ~24 hours to replace Horus II. For those having moneys tied up at Cryptsy, you best pray that there's not some Horus III, IV, V, etc., lurking about readying to make their more: https://cpu5.provestnet.net/  Well, since the last time I posted the above, Cryptsy experienced an immediate DDoS attack. They wised up and lock virtually all their subdomains down since then. "Virtually all" I say because there's still one major one that's not secure. Since I wasn't compensated by Cryptsy for the last time I kindly brought their weaknesses to light, I won't offer up this time which subdomain is still vulnerable given that they're the experts and all, and I'm just a monumental asshole troll. Maybe the following link could help them in their search: https://www.techhack.co.uk/tools/subdomain-discovery/ |

As of the last while, I had a full 1 Bitcoin in Cryptsy, shouldve known better to put it there after the gradual withdrawal issues over the last few months.....
Long story short, I figured out a way to get most of my funds out in the last while......There has been some sketchy shit happening to my account over the past few months, negative balances, coins that they withheld from me but it had a fake transaction withdrawal id provided to me!! Then, they decide to release my withdrawal once the market crashes 75% Wtf? TOTAL THEFT
Anyways, i'm glad to be done there. Fuk em, i'm finished with their bullshit. They can take the rest of their shitcoins and baghold them. I dumped every last piece of shit altcoin that only resides on Cryptsy..... SEEE YAAAAAAA LOL
*** PS - If you are desperate to get bitcoin off of cryptsy, pm me IMMEDIATELY.
I'm willing to sell my secret for a couple of bucks (I'm just trying to recoup the remaining coin that i have on that shithole exchange) If I can help you get a good chunk of your coins off of there then I would be happy to do so...In fact, I will share my secret withdrawal method once i get every last satoshi off of there....I'm afraid that by that point, it may be too late for many of you, so PM ME, I WOULD BE GLAD TO HELP for a small fee, whatever you are willing to donate to me...Good luck all
It would be nice if you could just post what you've figured out for all to see, like I did a few posts ago, and not be greedy. Post your address too and hopefully people will decide to tip you out of their own accord... Good points but I would rather do it via private messaging though for privacy reasons Good call! Make sure you use this forum's PM service for the utmost privacy.  |

Personally, I'm still stickin' with BitJohn (real name unknown) was part of Cryptsy prior to it comin' online live. Further, I don't buy the story of him being in Afghanistan most of 2013 while also handling various important affairs pertaining to Cryptsy. Also, BitJohn and Paul Vernon were key players of Mintsy that is now kaputski.
One more thing, I'm 100% beside myself that cryptocurrency enthusiasts are providing their vitals to a dude having the nym Horus in Canada whom we also don't know his real name.
The characters that make up DigitalBTC/DigtalX have a shady past as well, with most the lot located in Florida where Paul Vernon resides now in a million-dollar-plus home since March of this year, 2015. While Paul's living the high life, his Cryptsy user base have to jump through all kinds of crazy hoops to withdraw what's rightfully theirs with nary a support team member visiting this forum to at least settle nerves, the same forum that Paul Vernon et al. had no problem with using during Cryptsy's nascent stage.
Could you elaborate on the highlighted text, please? Spasibo!

Leroy Fodor, with his once 3-month ROI claim, can't hold a candle to Zhenya Tsvetnenko. In this video - http://www.brrmedia.com/event/124903 - Tsvetnenko goes into detail of how in ONLY three weeks (you're not gonna believe this!): Finished the year (yes, that consist of the three-week period) with $4.9M in cash; $1.7M in receivables; 3,600 bitcoins held that could easily be liquidated; and recouped the full cost of bitcoin mining hardware [obtained from BitFury sans an out-of-pocket satoshi for the $4M worth of miners]. |

@NorthStar ..Here you go.. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1173703.msg12461307#msg12461307He responded to the OP.. THEY CLEARLY DID NOT TELL ME HOW. See 2 posts ago of mine.....
I don't see any response.
Community: these ppl trying to discredit me are Cryptsy's troll accounts. I opened the account with the same IP, put the funds in- they have my ID and all my info... There's really nothing else a human can do to prove the account is theirs, I've given them everything.
Well, at least I have on the record them saying the coins are in the account. So, If/when they mysteriously "disappear", there's going to be alot of explaining to do to the judge. I am just calling it here in advance(again): they are going to say the account is hacked and someone withdraw the $ and that it's my fault. Sorry Cryptsy, its not going to work. Also notice they haven't done a single thing to contact the "legitimate" owner(an email would be nice). They have done nothing. I know because its my account.
Cryptsy = reverse security. Security intended to keep the owner of the acct out, and put down all security barriers (three 2FA options simultaneously) so a "hacker" can get into the account and fuck around.
CRYPTSY/MULLICK/BITJOHN: Still waiting. Lets just get this over with.
The fact that you have not even tried to reset your password concerns me. You are willing to make forum posts and replies and make support tickets, but you are unwilling to take a few seconds to reset your password? This really makes no sense to me. It's good practice to change your passwords from time to time anyways. From our perspective, this really just looks like somebody trying to access an account that they are not authorized to access. We get people trying to social engineer their way into peoples accounts all the time, so we don't take this lightly. BigVern EDIT: Side Note: I don't know what to say about the OP's story.. Maybe Paul had a point ? I do know eventually way before me or Gleb got on this topic Thrillhou created another topic about Cryptsy.. Asking people to PM him to inquire about Class Action lawsuit participation. He also claimed this topic had been taken over by Trolls etc. I figure he was a bit uptight about it.. and i repeat this was way before me or Gleb Gamow commented here ! It's going to trigger a lot of complaining from us all creating a topic like this. And believe it or not some good has come of this in a variety of ways. BitJohn was nice enough to tell us he doesn't work at Cryptsy anymore and other staff have posted comments too. So a lot of public info has been brought to light.. including doxxing and bad stories that could be used in court maybe. EDIT2: If there was a lawsuit then we need to know who is involved and who has more info and what happened.. make sense ? EDIT3: You know guys for the most part i have always liked BitJohn and i have all along hoping i don't hear he screwed us. He said he left and i can only guess at his level of involvement with things and take what he has said under consideration. I am saying i hope it's a situation where the boss was doing things leaving BJ and crew in a tough position. Aside from Jshock habitually being a massive jerk to me and others and being mega trigger happy with the ban button. I don't have any animosity towards the Cryptsy staff and volunteers. I have posted Fuck you blah blah etc.. because they have at times treated me unfairly on their chat-box. And i'd say that is a ME problem LOL That alone would not be proof of their wrong doing.. more a personal issue of sorts i guess. But i have a large collection of stories about them with sketchy circumstances. THAT contributes to the overall picture of Cryptsy's track record. I hope when the dust settles the only guy caught wrong doing is the Boss ! Personally, I'm still stickin' with BitJohn (real name unknown) was part of Cryptsy prior to it comin' online live. Further, I don't buy the story of him being in Afghanistan most of 2013 while also handling various important affairs pertaining to Cryptsy.

According to Cryptsy's top personnel, Paul Vernon is the only person who tweaks Cryptsy's innards just like Mark Kapeles of Mt Gox had sole control of his exchange's inner workings. Paul doesn't trust anybody while he expects his users to hand over their vitals to some dude in Canada of whom we don't even know his true identity, albeit one day we shall, then some serious doxxing will take place. HAHAHA
I figured, which is precisely why when talking about Cryptsy's shenanigans, I refer to Paul Vernon interchangeably. Aside: I admire your grammatically correct sentence structure there.  As a non-native English speaker, this warms my heart. Thanks Amazingly, Leroy Fodor who attended Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, to earn his B.B.A. would be extremely hard-pressed to pen the likes of that sentence, and he's a native redneck. Oops! I just realized my error in judgement. HAHAHA |

Overheard at prison:
Prisoner1: I killed two people. I get out in 23 years.
Prisoner2: I killed my girlfriend's baby. I get out in 7 years.
Prisoner3: I killed several people by selling them bad drugs. I get out in 12 years.
Prisoner4: I killed a van full of people cause I was drunk. I get out in 19 years.
Prisoner5: Hey, new guy. What you'll get?
Ross: Life.
Prisoner6: Dude, what the fuck did you do?
Ross: I was an admin of some website...
Prisoner7: What website was that? Ross: Only the website that offered the most freedom in the world! Prisoner8: Wait 'til you're in for a while. You'll be running it a thousand times better and freer. The reason the law interprets those things differently (I'm not defending it) is because those are individual crimes. Crimes against society are certain acts which are committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack directed against any civilian population or an identifiable part of a population. Ulbricht's crime can be classified as a crime against society and not specific individuals. Hate crime like the ones committed by groups (such as KKK members) are an example of people that get the death penalty or if death is off the table in that state they get life. For a second there I thought bank fraud to the tune of hundreds of billions was considered a crime against society. Thanks for enlightened me. Leroy Fodor and I are gonna start a GoFundMe page to amass moneys so to purchase Christmas presents for all them bankers wrongfully imprisoned for supposedly causing the 2008 financial crisis. HAHAHA |

As long as we keep bumping this BFL SCAM thread, I love you. I thought you'd appreciate the bumps. It sat still for too long. I hope they fry but know they won't. Sorry for fucking with you. If it's any consolation I had lots of fun. There's hardly anyone with a brain on this forum anymore. Signature campaigners for the win. lol Did CBH just mention scrambled brains and eggs? Now I'm hungry (not the country next to Turkey - SHIT! Now I'm really hungry) EDIT: And, see my sig. HAHAHA |

Excellent, thank you for the info.
Paul Vernon needs to step forward and speak out. The longer the silence, the louder the questions will get.
I am starting to consider a new theory as to what might be going on at Cryptsy, but this is just a thought experiment of mine. I was thinking, it is apparent to me that there is an issue with the BTC and some other wallets right now, and the only issue that could take so long to resolve would be if the problem is that it's empty, or under capacity. What could cause this? A hack, for one, could do it. Outright theft could cause the same problem as well.
But somehow I doubt that a person who until now was a prominent public figure in the crypto world, where everyone knows his identity, and who had been trying to develop a good, reputable business, would be motivated to outright steal funds. Especially if located in the USA. If a theft was perpetrated, I think it would have occurred under different circumstances, much more rapidly, with the site shutting down rather quickly.
A hack is also unlikely, I think Vernon would have taken a different course of action that would have had a lesser fallout. Frankly, I don't know if an outright hack with today's cold wallets and security measures taken would be even possible. And if it were, it would have affected only hot wallets, and Cryptsy would have been able to mitigate the damage. No need to ruin a good business and a cash cow over one hack. Heck, such an occurrence can even be used as PR to further bolster trust, as Bitstamp did early this year.
No, the way I see it, given Paul Vernon's reaction so far, or lack thereof, it's quite plausible that he fucked up in a way that he didn't anticipate. I noticed that the mass withdrawal issues started right around the time of bitcoin's latest bubble a month or two ago. Is it possible that he didn't segregate the BTC and other wallets, and had a short position somewhere using BTC? When BTC moved against him, he was stuck with a loss, thereby wiping out a large portion of the wallet. I would imagine that in his position of control over so much currency, as a mere mortal human being it would be quite tempting to "borrow" some of these funds to trade with and make more money? That might also explain why some wallets are affected, and not others (i.e. Dogecoin seems to be fine). Could he simply have misappropriated the funds out of gross negligence, not necessarily with malicious intent?
Either way, it would be inexcusable. Again, this is just a theory that I have been thinking about, using the bits and pieces that we have now. One thing is for sure, the lack of communication and at the expense of trust in this company clearly points to it being in very serious trouble, and quite likely it is already insolvent. The silence to me means a passive acknowledgment of a serious underlying issue, and it is done only to buy more time.
According to Cryptsy's top personnel, Paul Vernon is the only person who tweaks Cryptsy's innards just like Mark Kapeles of Mt Gox had sole control of his exchange's inner workings. Paul doesn't trust anybody while he expects his users to hand over their vitals to some dude in Canada of whom we don't even know his true identity, albeit one day we shall, then some serious doxxing will take place.

I posted my 2 cents on this topic here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1206845.msg13117828#msg13117828Here is the gist of it: I am going to call it out as it is, Cryptsy is insolvent in terms of BTC, either due to a hack or outright theft by insiders. Either way, we are not being told the truth. There are many things that point to all this. Where do I even begin? 1. The most obvious problem: many, many users are reporting slow withdrawals of BTC. I have been observing the Cryptsy chat for the last two days, as well as other places online and especially since around Nov 25th, no one is getting their BTC withdrawals. It gets stuck in "pending". I myself tried withdrawing 5.5 BTC and it was stuck for half a day. I created a support ticket and it was ignored for a few hours. They responded with the generic "we are working on an issue" that everyone else is getting. I made a DOGE withdrawal around the same time, and that cleared within 5 minutes. So from that and from reading others' responses, I knew some alts withdrawals are working. 2. Not an issue with their site - Their support staff are working, as evidenced by their response to my tickets. Their system receives deposits correctly and timely, and DOGE withdrawals work well too. I withdrew various amounts several times and they all happened within 5 minutes. So the issue is specific to BTC/DASH/ETH and some other more popular coins. Which leads me to believe they simply have no coins to cover the withdrawal requests. 3. Complete silence on the issue: you will not find any statement or anything that remotely resembles an acknowledgement that there is a serious problem. People who cause too much fuss in the chat get banned, some for one year. 4. Big Vern himself posted a tweet on Oct 21st, right around the time when the Tier system was incorporated, that "there are some good deals to be had on Alts right now". This seems like a marketing ploy to boost volume slightly and make money off commissions, but the main added effect would be BTC coffers swelling at the expense of Alt coin wallets. It is possible the problem with solvency has began back then, and it does coincide with the first reports of delayed BTC withdrawals. 5. The importance of trust - from other big sites going belly up, exchange operators know that once users' trust is gone, it can never be fully regained again. If there was a technical issue, like a prolonged DDoS attack, they would have admitted it in a timely manner, everyone has problems once in a while, but admitting to it boosts trust in the user base. In this case, there is complete silence despite a very obvious serious problem, and it's only getting worse. I think the only logical explanation is that Paul Vern knows that the only way to save the ship is "a la pyramid style", if mass panic is avoided and if he can hold off on people withdrawing their BTC for just long enough, he can recuperate enough funds to keep going (in case Cryptsy was hacked). OR, if the funds were stolen by an insider, then he is just buying more time. It is obvious they are trying to avoid a run on the BTC wallet, and it's probably already completely insolvent given that no one has been able to withdraw even the smallest amounts in the last 4-5 days. (I even tried withdrawing small incremental amounts, as small as 0.049 BTC, and still it didn't go through). Basically, I am confident this is the end of Cryptsy, there is no good reason for what's been happening and the silence on Cryptsy's part. Save your funds and GTFO while you still can. While we are on the subject, here is how I was able to get my ~9btc out of there since yesterday: buy Doge. Yes, you will take a hit. You only have a couple of viable options where to sell them later, right now you can buy them for 38-39sats on Cryptsy and sell them back on Poloniex for 32-33 sats, the situation is the same on BTC38, you can sell them for CNY and then buy BTC with CNY with the same result. You are losing about 15% in the process. From my research (and I stayed up most of the night yesterday looking at all sorts of options) Doge is the only currency that you can still buy on Cryptsy in large amounts and withdraw without issues. If you have a stuck pending withdrawal of BTC, you can create a ticket asking to cancel your withdrawal. It's amazing how quickly they responded to 2 such tickets that I created. It's like they don't want you to even try taking out BTC, could it be because they don't have any? Again, this is one option that you have, take it or leave it, I lost ~1btc in this process but I saved 8, to me it was worth the risk, because I am pretty sure this ship is not salvageable. Their shady practices combined with the fact that this is a wide-spread issue now, leads me to believe Cryptsy is, as of yet, unofficially insolvent. One more thing, for anyone who wants to know where to look for their coins, here is the Founder and CEO's name and home address: Paul E. Vernon 8656 Tourmaline Blvd. Boynton Beach, FL 33472 This is publicly available information that can be discovered by anyone who does a little digging. I wish everyone best of luck, and I hope this was helpful to at least some of you. Edit: someone pointed out that this address might be out of date now, please update me if I am wrong. This was the official address of registration of his corp, and it was used early in 2015 again.   Paul Vernon and his wife put their former piece of shit shack on the market when they moved into you new home worth five times as much. Reread what I penned about btc38 above: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1173703.msg13116943#msg13116943It's my contention that unlike, say, mining hardware companies not letting their competition know what they'll doing, exchanges must have an open line of communications among themselves so to have the ability to move funds freely, again, among themselves so to remain viable. I believe that Cryptsy and BTC38 are much closer then letting on. |

Okay, I figured it out after pondering for over a minute as to why the obvious answer isn't Lulu. To prove that I truly did figure it sans Google and scrolling past the OP, the father is a/the bus driver, assuming you're familiar with that riddle based on the same theme. Edit: Just read that the answer is Mary.  "Okay, I didn't know. Do potato clock!" |
