Came to say I haven't been able to get any LTC out of vircurex for the last 2 days. Does anyone have the hot wallet address so I can see when more funds are available? Or a good way of contacting the owner?
The only way to really see if there are funds in the hot wallet are to try withdraws with smaller and smaller amounts until it goes through. That's how I could see that a withdraw of 100+ LTC failed but a withdraw of 50 then 25 then 5 could go through then nothing more so the wallet was empty.
Another theory is just that the site really has been neglected and Kumala hasn't touched the hot wallet in a week and the extra coins I found were some that were deposited in by someone else into the site. Still not a scenario where I want to keep much money on the site though so I'm fine with pulling everything for the near term until I can rework my bot to work with far less coins.
Managed to pull out 10 LTC in amounts 5LTC - 1 LTC... cost me .6LTC in fees though...
Tried again after 3 hours, managed to get 30LTC in one transaction this time, it seems the hot wallet is periodically topped up from fees or whatever. I'd much rather the LTC interest that vircurex pays out be kept in this hot wallet so people can easily cash out what they have when they want.
