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](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Level 2 verification is pending for a quite a while. They are very slow and absolutely no customer support, which sucks!

Is it in USA even neccessary to provide ID, when only cryptocurrencies without FIAT are traded? Are you still able to withdraw during ID processing? To OP: My experiences on Cryptopia are good. They have active support and pay out very fast.

Thanks ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Level 2 verification is pending for a quite a while. They are very slow and absolutely no customer support, which sucks! They can't cope with the sheer number of new registrations. They say it had reached half a million new registrations a month before they stopped accepting new users, This is a letter the founders posted in their news section to explain the reason for the poor service and apologise. https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/NewsLetter From The Founders My name is Rob Dawson, or probably better known as "Hex", and I am one of the two Co-Founders of Cryptopia. Adam ("sa_ddam213") and I started Cryptopia as a hobby, largely due to our own negative experiences with other exchanges and a desire to build the website that we ourselves wanted to use. 6 months into development we founded and incorporated Cryptopia as a company, and after 12 months of development the site went live into production for the first time in December 2014. For the first 2 years the company consisted soley of Adam and myself, working our regular full times jobs and dedicating our spare time and income to Cryptopia, and while we were proud of our growth and what we were achieving it was not even a drop compared to what we've experienced in the last 6 months, let lone the last week. Roughly this time last year Adam and I being well into having quit our jobs to work on Cryptopia full time and running low on savings and resources had a very real conversation about whether or not we should shut Cryptopia down, we had a modest 30,000 users, with an average of 2,000 concurrent user sessions at any given time, and averaged about 300 BTC in trade volume a day; we were proud of what we had achieved, but at the time it simply wasn't sustainable with our dwindling resources.
Obviously we didn't shut down Cryptopia in January 2017, thanks to an investment we were able to keep pushing through. By the 1st of December we hit 500,000 users. On the 31st of December we hit 1,000,000 users. By the 3rd of January we hit 1,100,000 users. By the 4th of January even with registrations disabled for 3 hours, we hit 1,200,000 users. With registrations paused again we're now sitting at 1,400,000 users. We've gone from just 2 people to over 50 people including contractors and consultants and we're looking to at the very least double that as soon as we can, but that also brings with it its own set of hurdles. I mention all of this only to give context as I would like to acknowledge the complaints and concerns about our level of service. We are aware that our level of service has been suffering, but that is not due to any complacency on our part, rest assured that we are hiring people, and developing the processes to manage those people to grow with the demand we're facing and scale as best as we can. Please bear with us, as we know how frustrating it can be for users involved in issues impacting their ability to transact freely, but we're in an unprecedented time with adoption and interest in cryptocurrencies and blockchain surging and Cryptopia is dedicated to being a quality service provider in this evolving landscape.
Thank you for supporting Cryptopia and being a part of our community.

personally, I think cryptopia is safe and legit and I was surprised to know that they have a big trader inside that site. I think it is normal if they shut down the registration because maybe they cannot handle a new customer that is bigger than they thought. but I hope that in one day, they will open new registrations for people so other people can try to trade on their site. I have good experiences too with them and now I still trade with them besides use poloniex and bittrex.

I guess a lot of other traders switched from poloniex and bittrex to cryptopia. Poloniex and bittrex's new verification rules and bad service probably gave traders little choice but to go to cryptopia, and now cryptopa is starting to struggle supporting so many users.

Cryptsy used to be way better than cryptopia and you all saw what happened. BTC-E used to be way better than cryptopia and here it is now www.btc-e.comI have stopped trading in cryptopia and emptied my account 7 months ago. There are plenty of bad practices by this exchange like 200 confirmations. So, if there is a pump in a coin it will take you 2 days in some coins until they deposit into your account. This way you miss the high price and not be able to sell. Now, they have problems with LTC and DOGE markets that they are not capable to fix. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

I can't believe someone deposited 5 ETH in there. Next time send them to a paper wallet, print and burn them. At least you will heat your room for 20 seconds.

although cryptopia is safe and legit, I think they are closed for new members for now but I don't know when they will open the registration. I have an account with them and I think cryptopia is safe and legit. I think it is better that we have many accounts on many exchanges so we can trade with many options too and finally, we can make money from much of exchanges. just imagine if we have more than 10 exchanges and we can buy many coins when the price is cheap and don't do anything with that coin and then we come back in one year later, I am sure that our profit will bigger.

While Cryptopia is safe and legit
Beware of very convincing phishing sites buying google ads to fool people. Clicking a link from a search engine is not safe.
Make sure you type cryptopia.co.nz in the address bar Check the security certificate of the site.
Cryptopia has NO OFFICIAL APPS. Google has failed to remove FAKE APPS from the Play Store.
This problem also affects other exchanges.

Can you share some information regarding your transaction because otherwise, people will not consider your word? There are many positive people who have the lot of positive feedback towards the Cryptopia, so shares the links and support tickets raised by you in order to get answers from them.

Cryptopia is safe and legit, are you sure about that? Both transactions show complete on Cryptopia, however the transaction IDs do not exist on the blockchain ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) From a few months ago i lost nearly 0.022 BTC by Cryptopia ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) Support is dead somewhere that almost months do not respond And finally I decided to leave the Cryptopia, the reason is because i do not want to continue to work with bandits. And now I continue to look at the Cryptopia to gather more evidence to sue them ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

withdrawal and deposit issue on this site. be very careful
i have 10,000+ bismuth withdrawal and it is more than 12 days already and it is still not sent to my wallet.
BTW it is not just me...the list is growing, Updates as of today:
I have 3 withdrawals from Jan 9. Status in Cryptopia is "Complete" but nothing in my wallet. I am running the github wallet v4.2.2.0 (latest version).
Here are the people in this thread reporting deposit or withdrawal issues since Jan 1: Xdragon - deposits not received on cryptopia Jan 3 (page 75) DuvajBalone - ditto (page 76) Sash_lav - ditto (page 76) Mike1983 - ditto (page 76) nonny12 - withdrawal not received (page 76) moonstruck - ditto (page 76) arielbit - ditto Jan 6 (page 79) worldwide_wes - ditto Jan 9 (page 79) khage - ditto Jan 10 (page 80) benbutton - ditto Jan 7 (page 80) TTE - ditto Jan 10 (page 80) chiwalfrm - ditto Jan 9 (page 80) *pendula032 - ditto Jan 11 (page 80) *ylpkm2 - ditto Jan 11 (page 81) - says missing 10 withdrawals from Jan 11 but one from Jan 12 worked. *sikosomatik - ditto Jan 8 (page 82) *moonstruck - deposits missing Jan 15 (page 82)
* = newly added
I just saw all of these posts where people are having issues with Cryptopia withdrawal which lead me to check my withdrawal. I sent 52 BIS from Cryptopia to my wallet on Jan 08 2018 and haven't received it in my wallet yet. I checked the block explorer too, nothing there. I'll issue a support ticket ASAP.

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](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) On my experience on this seeling and trading altcoins in this cryptoworld I may say that cryptopia is one of trusted and tested exchange. I am using cryptopia in trading etherium to btc, I find it quite easy to use and safe because of its Google authentication and i may say that the fees on trading here is much low than other exchangers. But if you still not satisfied on this exchange your free to try and test other legit and reputable exchanger like Bittrex, polenex, yobit, ethdelta and etc.. There ate plenty to choose but right now i am trading my tokens, etherium and altcoins on either cryptopia or etherdelta.
