Experiences with CoinsMarkets.com?

[qf3l3k]

Too many fucking trolls on this thread, no one even bothering to do their research.

Research on what in particular?

[CrustySir]

All this rubbish around domain is also in my opinion for distraction.
Nforce didn't turn off servers by the look of it, if they can publish updates in news section.
What is the problem to buy any domain and resume services while fixing issue with old domain?
All this fuss with some petitions.. WTF is that about?
At this point doesn't matter how domain is named, right?
Unless domain barking is for distraction caused by CM to drag situation further.

yes these are all distractions

Yeah, and if they actually cared and planned on coming back, they would announce their progress elsewhere (like on twitter). It's not as if everyone of their customers uses the telegram or this forum. So, if their domain is on hold, how would most people who would just type "coinsmarkets.com" into their browser and don't know to manually enter the specific ip addresses supposed to see any updates? They're doing just enough to get people off of their backs. They're not acting like a legitimate business so the reasonable conclusion is that they'r not a legitimate business.

Have been following this since the site went down. It was my very first day using coinsmarkets when the site went down, only hours after I made my first deposit and trade, right as I tried to withdraw the coins I purchased. Like everyone else I have a significant amount of funds locked up in CM.

There are many different ways you can look at this, scam or no scam, but it really makes no difference in the end. The best thing for everyone to do is to just accept the fact that we've lost everything on CM, stop worrying about it, move on and focus on earning what you lost back. Check in once a week and maybe we get a really nice bonus at some point in the future if CM comes back online and we get our coins back.

I partially agree, of course we have to learn to consume potential loss, especially in crypto-world today.

I disagree with moving on without raising red flag to authorities at least to try chase down people behind CM.
Regardless if we recover funds or not, they should be chased.

Yep, legally or illegally. Negligence to  the fraudulence  causes another fraudulence.

CM asks you fools to stop spreading FUD. I think you should listen to them and let them do their work to get things running again. You are shooting in your own foot with all this stupid desperate behaviour. So keep your mouth shut, stop calling people just based on things you really don't know for 100% and show patience. If CM wanted to rob you, they would have done it already a long time ago.

[x2maconaers]

this is redicoulous I have bout 5000$ dollar locked in Coinsmarket
how can we report to Netherland authorites if we aren't from Netherland ?
5000$ isn't small amount of money to me

How do you explain that my B3 address SNvTAjrL9t26ixhkpYuQMo6AWxd6YYmiNZ has 0 balance and actions on this address after 04 January when CM did not work but my screenshots show that b3 address had had more than 600000 coins before CM "did not robbed us"?

If you've bought B3 on CM it's normal when your balance is zero in blockexplorer.

If you've deposited it and never used for trading - time to worry about it.

I am sure if they do not return all coins to me and others, they will be worried walking on the streets.

I know this is a shot in the dark people, but I suspect the person behind coinsmarkets is keeping up with this thread so here we go…

Open Letter to CoinsMarkets Owner,

This has gone on long enough and its time to resolve this problem once and for all. The value of coins you’re holding from members is significant and you simply have no way of knowing the capabilities of some of those people you’re impacting. This is a very dangerous game you’re playing and its time to put all the speculation to rest and fix this problem...

If this isn’t an exit scam you need to come clean to everybody about your true identity and the problems you’re having. If revealing your identity is a problem you can still open a line of communication with members while staying anonymous. Simply post a link to your newbie profile from your newsfeed then start talking to the community in this thread.

As I’m sure you know, the bitcointalk community has some very knowledgeable and helpful people that would be happy to assist you anyway possible. You have an entire community with resources at your fingertips if you would simply open up a line of communication with the community. If you take advantage of this invitation to talk with members I think the community could help you get all your problems resolved in short order.

Hoping for your reply…

I concur.
Your 'elusive mysteriousness', has now transmuted into fearful idiocy.
Time to come clean and get proactive.
If you think you can play the victim because some are trying to track you down, it's your own fault.

That is exactly what I also pointed out... Netherlands authorities are right one and someone who knows local language should report it, so authorities can seize servers.

If CM wanted to rob you, they would have done it already a long time ago.

First thing - CM didn't ask anything and didn't communicate anything, not even mentioning way of "suppose to be communication".
Second thing - is a friendly advise - go to a doctor... you have serious emotional problems.
Third thing - stop spreading anger and keep discussion on proper level. We don't need content-less blah blah like you just posted. Keep facts going not stories pulled out of the a**.

[zaragosa]

Unless you guys have better ideas of getting our coins back, just back up and take your tinfoil hats with you.

All these dumb speculations didn't help at all

clientHold    

This status code tells your domain's registry to not activate your domain in the DNS and as a consequence, it will not resolve. It is an uncommon status that is usually enacted during legal disputes, non-payment, or when your domain is subject to deletion.
   
Often, this status indicates an issue with your domain that needs resolution. If so, you should contact your registrar to resolve the issue. If your domain does not have any issues, but you need it to resolve, you must first contact your registrar and request that they remove this status code.

Seriously an exchange makes money hand over fist and with 7 people working there this should have been resolved ages ago. They are buying time waiting for people to go away. Thankfully I moved my money out of the exchange but it's still pisses me off

[zaragosa]

They don't need to "buy time" lol. They can just shut the servers down and transfer all the money to their own wallet, cash them out on an exchange and move out of the country. This isn't a movie.


Wallets are online. They're being kept in sync. http://185.66.140.234/walletstatus.php

I don't get how people still can't get the concept that they'd be moving crypto, not gold bars. You can take the hard drives out and then move on.

This is my litecoin wallet address. http://explorer.litecoin.net/address/LbU6c7H81dZEWsqQnfLgT3F6DArmcXSVxx

All the litecoins are still there.

I could setup a domain called coinsmarkets2.com in around 24-48 hours and have a fully working homepage for the price of 2 coffee's, then if you get coinsmarkets.com back simply redirect coinsmarkets2.com to it, how f@#in hard is it?

Time : 2018-01-25

Now gandi (Domain registrar) took over our domain , we are working with them to restore access , Please stop bombaring hosting and domain registrar , You are just delaying the process of getting back coinsmarkets online.

This is what an honest and competent person would do. CoinsMarkets has show themselves to be neither of those things.

Nothing will change. Late next week they'll post some new garbage update in their news feed where they blame the customers somehow.

And their loyal followers will say "See guys! CoinsMarkets is definitely coming back! Stop spreading FUD!"

I agree there are several stupids in this. A corrupt DB I understand can take time to fix. Setting up a new domain, communicating some, etc. should be no problem. Only posting news messages on a website only accessible via a hidden IP most people dont know. Eh.

Anyway, someone on coinsmarketschat noted the whois status for the domain no longer shows the domain status as clientTransferProhibited. It used to (page 85 on this thread). Surely there will be a nice message related to this next week... In process of moving to a new registrar, very soon now

Well, everyone is hoping for this to happen, which is, for them to go back in their usual business state but I honestly doubt it. Like what I said in my previous post (few days ago), if they are really doing their best, they should have solved it already. Given the time that they are out of business, that is, I think, ample of time to fix everything. Many people have their valuable coins stuck there and hoping for them to recover it but as the day goes by, the hope of it becoming true is fading away. Sad moments for those who lost their coins with this exchange.
