I always thought that the mercatox website was extremely unprofessional looking, and as a result, only traded there once.  It reminds me of liqui and just gives me bad feelings.  I'm sure the exchange will be back, but perhaps you should question whether or not you trust your money there longer term.

Yep, seems they f*ked us. I'm using it to get rid of my POS tokens and I guess I will need to use ethertdelta instead.

If they come back, I will withdraw all my satoshis from there and I suggest you to do the same.

I do not like Mercatox also. They have to much down time and every time I am trading, they always deduct fees everytime I am setting orders. Like what?

I don’t think there is any scam until there are actually some Mercatox users reporting that their addresses are being emptied. I do hope that will not happen. Seems like a new scam going around every day.

Everything worked now, obviously there were problems with the servers after launching trades on a new coin.
For the future do not keep your funds on the stock exchange only cold wallet friends!  Roll Eyes

We are surrounded by legends on this bitforum. Phenomenal successes and catastrophic failures guys. Then there are the scams.
This forum is a digital museum for future.

I believe he got scared especially if you have large portion of your portfolio on that exchange, this is not a big issue most of these exchanges have downtime even Bitfinex because the demand for their service is on high

I don't think it is scam just because of the 24 hour maintenance. It happened with bitgrail too. It's maybe because of the new coins added to the exchange and their servers just need to upgrade.

Luckily, I have only one coin in Mercatox...after they came back up, I sold it all and left with my 0.03 BTC.  LOL  Small amount but it is invested in another coin at Binance now.

Agreed that Mercatox website looks like trash but I don't think they are a scam. Nevertheless I've only used them once and won't be using again after I buy and move my Raiblocks.

In my opinion that just like a website that creates a kid and why as you can see how the website is not userfriendly. A lot of my friends are saying about too difficult to deposit in there and the webpage is not good.
Just pick your amount and move to another major exchange.

Because your beggar friends and yourself have no respect for an original work. mercatox is a good exchange, I registered recently to dump my POS tokens like our farmer friend a few posts above. lol.
Mercatox is a professional looking exchanging platform, they have their own shitcoin to pump and dump on people, like every body else, they were selling Ł for 0.017BTC and price of Ł was 0.018 on other places, I couldn't bother with buying them because of the Bitcoin transaction fees.

Those f*** are still down and my POS tokens are locked there. I lost few hundred because of this!

Anybody to know a working solution? I guess there is no way to access our funds until they decide so??

I don`t think Mercatox is megascam, but what we face now looks like little scamming. I think it`s directly connected with the recent XRB pump, and the service is not working NOT due to server problems

It`s not serious business in my opinion, hope this will not be repeated in future, though it`s just a hope Cry

In their website appears"under maintenance due to ddos attack".. 24hours? Just they ripped us off.
I hope you didnt have as much as me inside this scam trap.
The most funny.m. i ordered a Nano Ledger S some days ago and still on way... aboslutely fu**ing bad luck
--------------

update: it is already working again! anyway,i still don't trust this website too much afer findind many many bad comments about it

How much you have money investing there? If the website of any project has been problem, i suggest to stay away from it. First experience and the last or you will be regret later

It will be alive again soon.  Roll Eyes The mercatox is an easy exchange for non ico token to be listed in there. Raiblock and ethereum gives huge volume to the exchange site. I hope there will be an improvement to the site. It has explained by the developers. The site down due to the ddos attack. If you can't be patience and it may better to use another exchange site as alternative. But as long as you are still keeping your fund.
