Bitrrex to handle the chain split

[Netnox]

This is a welcome step by Bittrex. But why should anyone keep any of their hard earned coins in an exchange wallet, especially when there is chaos and FUD everywhere? I would be interested to know whether BTC-e is also following this or not. But their site has been down for more than 24 hours now.

it's pretty nice that they do this for you. but I'd prefer to keep the bitcoin with me, it's simple. In case a split, it is easy for me to extract the private key and get to any new wallet as needed

Up to this point, other than announcements, the only active change I've seen for them is it they increased 38 confirmations from 3 to 6. It's actually kind of funny, that the additional activity on the blockchain has speed things up to the point, we're we're getting those six confirmations in less time than it took to get three last week.

Bittrex is becoming an irrelevant exchange and they're doing everything to assure that. For this fork they didnt say anything concrete and blocked withdraws and deposit, I got lost with that thing. Then we had the problems with the accounts being locked for apparently no reason and they came up with a statement one week later. Now we are seeing they listing irrelevant coins that nobody knows from nothing, and I can only think that they are being very well paid to do such a thing. So much nice projects begging for a listing and they just don't give any feedback. I am very disapointed with Bittrex and I think they'll lose lots of customers in next months.

I just recently moved my bitcoins to bittrex and i'm glad to know they do this for us. I used to have it in poloniex and they do the split for me there too. I gurss with exchange sites that's what tgey usually do

There is no need to pump an old thread there is already new one for BTG update , Btw getting paid to list coins is the standard thing for all exchanges not just Bittrex . I do agree for the closing of accounts they needed to say something and give people chance to withdraw before doing this .
I will lock this thread now you can see if you need more info about the current fork in this thread .  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2301439.msg23347376#msg23347376
