I got ebtc token in hitbtc

Says that it will be worthless. The thing is the new ebtc token is distributed to all those with old ebtc token. That means hitbtc also got it. Will hitbtc change their old ebtc token into the new ebtc token?

The reason I ask is because hitbtc should be getting their ebtc token anyway.

I thought they notify all exchanges about this. The exchange should get the token.

Why didn't I withdraw? Well, I didn't know about the token swap. I was just buying and selling like usual. Then suddenly price drops like rock. Lost 1 ETH worth of money here

This is the first time ever I lost money because of coin exchange.

I understand that people with private wallet got new ebtc.

If that's true, then exchange should also got new ebtc because they have old ebtc.

Am I correct here?

That's why I don't understand why people with old ebtc in hitbtc don't get new ebtc.

Have you talked with exchanges?

I "stored" my ebtc at my hitbtc account, will i get the new one?

Maybe a good idea that you check the ebtc ann in announcements regarding the swap.

I feel cheated. I myself did not know there was a swap going on. Happily bought Ebtc[old] thinking i could trade on its price movement. Went overseas, came back and I could not see any balance on my Ebtc in etherdelta (yes I left them in there). Upon checking further, I realized that the Ebtc I have is now labelled as Ebtcold. Absolutely nonsense. Simply creating new coins, swapping, forking, splitting, whatevernexts... all these making tracking on our part much more difficult to manage. Not going to touch these kind of nonsense tokens anymore. Now I will just have to sell my worthless Ebtcold back into ETH at a great loss.

It was very sad to watch my ebtc turn a worthless coin just because it was with an exchange. My problem ism if exchanges were informed about the change of contract, why didnt they the exchanges inform us?
