Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[Neo_Coin]

some 40 hours since Kraken began their "2 hour" outage

no updates for 5 hours

starting to wonder if I got off cheap with the fucking I got there

Use Binance and problem finished

When you work in web development you quickly learn that the absolute best day for updates and deployment is a Friday.

True, but crypto doesn't just operate during normal Mon-Fri business hours. Crypto never sleeps 24/7/365.  

We are like the good ol' radio stations.  24/7/365 no stop as you said.
Every day new fun, new tears, new profit, new losses, new lambos, new porsches, new toasters, new noobs, new ddos, new scaling debates...

Isn't that amazing?

If the Kraken Exchange isn't working perfectly when I wake up tomorrow morning, I am calling the FBI to request that they get involved in this situation.  Your recent status update is unprofessional and shocking.  PS - I am 25+ year lawyer.  #kraken  @krakensupport @krakenfx


talking of noobs

Yeah, trying to send less than .01 btc is going to result in significant fees.

Wtf they don't even use segwit yet.

I saw something on reddit about being able to sweep a BitPay wallet seed into a Samurai wallet, and send btc from there at a fraction of the network fee that BitPay is requiring. Haven't tried this myself, just passing along the info.

[Emelectrol]

everyone relax. First futures contact ends soon.
Everything Is going as it should.

Next time you contact the future, get some fucking times and dates, man!

Wait a minute. They're charging a "sweeping" fee, in addition to the miner fee? That's completely unnecessary. If they want to sweep payments around for their own enjoyment, that's their choice and they should pay that fee.

paywall = no eyeballs



in other news, the Kraken damage control guy woke up from his wee nap

Update
We are still working to track down an elusive bug which is holding up launch. This bug did not appear in our many weeks of testing and only emerged in the production environment. Unfortunately, it is not consistently reproducible and we cannot launch until this issue is resolved. To reiterate our earlier statement: stale (and possibly all) orders will be canceled, and liquidations will be paused before trading is resumed. We will be offering a substantial amount of free trading following resolution. All funds remain secure.

Pretty sure Kraken will be back. Best not to worry too much guys.

I agree...for those in IT this is the norm.  I'm just hoping this maintenance will help out the performance of their servers.

worst bug an exchange can have, Is the mysterious bug of missing coins

No you were undercharged.

[HairyMaclairy]

Crypto can be sent anywhere in the world.   Wtf are you people doing sticking with a single non-performing exchange ?

That's what makes them so tasty!

So when can I trade Kodakcoin on Bittrex?

Someone will probably release a scam alt claiming to be Kodakcoin too.

So when can I trade Kodakcoin on Bittrex?

With each Kodakcoin supposedly attached to a unique photo, are they even fungible and tradable? Lol
