These youtube vids looks paid tbh... it doesn't add up that they have lots of reviews there but barely any in other platforms.

Speaking of other platforms, same complaint in reddit


If you're counting on paypal, they don't have it anymore



Don't trust them.

The total trading volume at certain time frames could've also played a part.

Assuming you weren't/won't be asked after this for additional documents, this could just be a re-verification, you triggered something and the exchange needs to verify it's you.


Did you check your email?

I wonder if he's the first one who asked? In any case, it's always nice to see another merchant accept bitcoin as a payment method, good work and best of luck to you op!

Demand is most likely gonna be a problem and to help with that, you can spread awareness about this by: (this is ofc without breaking any rules)

1. Posting in bitcoin communities

a. Français - This is our local board for french speakers. I don't understand the language but if there is a board where service/product announcements are meant to be posted, you should post there. I'll leave it at your own discretion @op.
b. /r/Bitcoin/

2. Getting listed in search engines/list of bitcoin accepted stores

a. https://spendabit.co/
b. https://cryptwerk.com/
c. https://bitcoinwide.com/
d. https://spending-bitcoin.com/

3. Getting listed in articles about this - if you search 'list of bitcoin accepted stores' a lot of articles will come up, see if you can contact them to list your website


It actually doesn't fit there as it's more on stuff about trading bitcoin against crypto/currencies. I'm actually quite confused myself as this also fits in service discussion or project development, I guess I'll leave it to the mods if they decide to move this thread.

Found a similar problem in reddit. It looks like having their users shoulder what they lack is how they handle the surge of users.


Just how busy and limited is cex.io that it has to come down to a one month cooldown... even a day or two cooldown makes a huge difference. Ngl, I am suspicious.

In any case, we have a rep from cex.io here, you can PM them to follow up your case/respond to this, see user https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=148073
They will ask you your support ticket number so to save time, make sure you include it in your PM and in your post.

Ebay is bad bad. There is pretty much no seller protection as they would often side with the buyer. Horror stories about this are all over the internet, search engine is your friend. Cryptocurrency specific items are also overpriced and is therefore not a good platform for gauging the price.

I suggest sticking in this forum @op. You can look up past threads about your casascius coin by adding "site:bitcointalk.org" when you search.

LMAO this will just add more taint to their name. Imagine a barrage of newly created accounts posting the same thing... it won't take a genius to tell that something is wrong.

Thanks for sharing this op!

FinaCom membership doesn't mean much. It's only for resolving disputes in case settling with the exchange doesn't work out and definitely isn't meant as a regulatory body which these shady off shore businesses make them appear to be

In addition, given their circumstances, I have doubts they would be able to stay neutral at all times. One is they're not affiliated nor regulated in any jurisdiction (note that this is useless if the country has lax laws). Second is, it's pretty much a business whose earnings come from the exchanges who pays for their membership.

Any source they have passed it? Cause I could only find this: Kazakhstan will only tax cryptos once they are sold for fiat, that has a misleading headline as it's actually about the bill under review which means it isn't effective yet.

If I were you op, I'd follow joniboini's advice and get a tax consultant even if you have to pay for it. Taxes can be mind boggling and one mistake could lead to penalties in which you'll be paying more.

Side note: I suggest doing these to get a better set of answers
1. Move this to Legal
2. Change the thread title to something like Taxation in Kazakhstan

Which doesn't make the situation any less worse

The said brand is their intellectual property so using it without permission counts as theft... and being bold about it just makes it worse.

Would help if you can post what type do you have and its condition.


You risk of getting your funds locked/getting asked to KYC which is usually a total nightmare for reasons:

1. Support works at a very slow pace
2. KYC could be over the top which means your ID and proof of address may not be enough;
3. Complying doesn't mean you'll get your funds back, it is still within their discretion
4. No way to verify if they actually have set effective precautionary measures from hacking.

Holding where you have full control of your coins would be a better option if you're looking to increase its value over time but this is of course if you believe in bitcoin.

PS: you can move this to Collectibles to get a better set of response

That's probably because that time they still have their full system intact and possibly the staffs too which is the opposite of now.

The problem is when it takes way too long. Coinexchange.io has shut all communication so there's no way to follow up or get an update... which btw is a very shady practice.

1. Binomo isn't regulated by a recognized government body
2. Offshore company - address has been used by other companies (google it) and it's at St. Vincent & the Grenadines which is a hotspot for it

Most scam binary options have these two checked and makes getting away of shady practices easier, hence why I would not recommend this. There is too much scam in binary options, I say find another way to gamble.


I guess this counts as a proof they support cryptocurrency

But you can still use the live chat to follow up your case or support ticket.

I actually got ahold of someone in the live chat after waiting 2-3 hours which is an okay time for me. I say it depends on you luck, like when there is less ppl than usual, it'll be easier. This ofc doesn't mean it's fine to not open a support ticket as that is still their priority and you have less chance of losing your place in the queue there.

I'd say, we should step up the precautionary measures

like
1. Adding a warning emoji (⚠️) alongside the red asterisk
2. The "having some trouble" could also be seen as something light, maybe we could add "/involved with scam accusations" or something
3. huge caution note on top that nothing is endorsed and users are advised to DYOR

At this point there's no way to actually miss it, and if someone still went their way despite the warning signs, then they did it deliberately, and ppl like that are out of our control...

Update for the kardiachain campaign

Another suggestion is maybe @Mitchell can link this thread in the MAIN (1st post in overview of sig camps) so it won't be easier to miss?

For security most users avoid download links, maybe you could upload screenshots of it to a free image host site instead?


Any reason for using coinbase vault? cause if you're storing funds, that's bad news. Never use a custodial wallet to store funds, see https://notyourkeys.org/. For withdrawing thru paypal, I believe @Bitcoin_Arena has summed it up for you, just remember to check the trading fees, minimum trading amount and paypal fee first before jumping.

Maybe you have enabled the login IP restriction?

If not, aside from reaching out to their support, try to also reboot your router but wait for a few mins before turning it on and check if that changes your ip address otherwise you can contact your ISP for a change.

If you have your mnemonic seed/backup phrase, you can easily import it to another wallet like electrum (how to)

Mannn. and here I was under the impression the situation is similar to bittrex and poloniex who has lost a very large portion of existing and potential users because of the strict KYC and unprofessionalism, it seems they doing an effective marketing...

Then again, there's always a fair chance it's all a lie or the stolen funds for years are a major contributor 🤭

So the other cryptocoin was not included in the recent last batch of withdrawals as you have withdrew them before it close? confirming this because if both of them are included, it would make sense to not receive them both at the same time as coinexchange.io is processing the withdrawals by cryptocurrency.


In any case, I would expect a much longer waiting time because they probably have limited staff, I say it's still fine for now...

Try to also ask here in regards to PAC: Last chance to withdraw your crypto from COINEXCHANGE.io after 18th of May!

You need to up your background checking game because coinbaazar has/had full time sockpuppets here to promote their platform, not a good interviewee for this kind of interview which is sort of like a service feature or something, check this thread for reference: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5271725.0

The questions asked aren't that coherent too, I would work on that. and maybe some follow up questions too in order to make the interview more engaging.
