Cryptopia is one of the very few platforms that was developed without bad intentions hidden under the hood. At least easy to spot ones such as the options to disable email confirmations required for withdrawal paired with the inability to change your email address.

Many exchanges will not allow you to change your email address, which can be a big issue if you no longer have access to said email account.

So if an exchange requires email confirmation, you can't access email and can't change it, your screwed unless support helps.

With cryptopia the option can be disabled though you certainly will want to enable 2fa.

Always make certain to backup your master 2fa keys in a safe manner, such as PGP.

I hope this will be a consideration for all cryptopia users.
I found a lot of other news on social media. I hope this helps.

You need to know that Cryptopia exchange got hacked few days back and still they didn't come online and also didn't provide any information about how much they lost for this security breach so its no more safe to use and better find some other exchange with good reputation and security.

It was hacked several times, so it's not safe anymore. I can recommend you to use exchange services, they aren't storing your funds. I can recommend several, but it'll look like a shill.

I think using exchange is always risky. I had problems with bittrex, having a verified account that they blocked for some time without a reason. Now I began to use exchangers without registration, for example, changenow, it is really easier and more profitable sometimes. However, everyone must decide for himself what is better.

It is not yet proved that it was exit scam. Investigation is going on, people can only ensure after the report. TllIt may be hacking or may be exit scam. No one surely tell anything.

I think that using services without registration is much better and safer. As for changenow, which you mentioned, it is truly one of the best exchangers today. Used several times with excellent results.

Indeed, only the use of services without registration can protect against loss of funds. Of course, this will not guarantee full protection, but it reduces the risk. I have never used exchanges with registrations, preferring exchangers, for example, those specified in previous messages.

It was utterly an exit scam. I can't believe that one of the few good exchanges just let the bear period made them to stop operating. And don't rely on their own investigation. Hence, let's wait for the authorities handle it because it's just like what happened to Bitgrail and they are now ordered to return the stolen funds.

It's good for you but not for everybody. If someone still interested with cryptopia, I won't advise them to proceed. There are other more trusted and reputable exchanges out there to trade with and if you're someone who's been into news.

You will understand why many don't suggest to trade with cryptopia anymore. This is one sad fact that when something bad happens to an exchange people should be more aware of the next events and must pull out funds from them.

Cryptopia is already hacked. Why people are still yalking about trading there? Don't you know what happened? It's in investigation process for last 1 month and still there is no update from them.

I don't know, he just said that he never experienced any problem to them. I already warned him that he shouldn't used it and don't send any funds to them anymore if ever they will operate again in the future.

But if that's what he stands for or he isn't aware that the website isn't working anymore and is under investigation. If the investigation is ever done, still don't trade again there it's just a piece of advice that will save your money in the future.

Hi. I have been browsing coinmarketcap and see some good looking coins that are listed on Cryptopia. But, are they safe to use? I am in the United States and wonder if they follow all of the regulations and rules? Just wondering if anyone in the USA has any experience bitcoin trading on this exchanger? Thanks Smiley

If I am not mistaken, cryptopia at the moment has been running for under maintenance in 3 weeks almost I think.
I don't know what happened actually. In fact, I have loyalcoin in this platform, I am hoping my token will not be lost.
Actually, its not that cool for me though as far as I know it was owned by Russian people if I am not mistaken.

Cryptopia has been hacked since January 14 possibly. You should have seen the message in their website. There are no update from investigation team too. Don't know if it's a exit scam or a real hack. Hope for the betterment.

I think that we should stop treating Cryptopia as a reliable partner, although I have used them only once. 2fA authentication and email validation on withdrawal do not guarantee that your funds will remain secure. Hackers broke into Cryptopia and since I don’t see updates, I think the funds are lost.
