yea man keep screwing us in the ass... somebody has to say it right?  security should be #1, maybe you will learn next time, but for now I will never keep my shit on coinex ever, going to cryptsy.

Bwahahaha - Cryptsy is a vacuum where coins go in and only some come out. Enjoy the half a day to 2 month delays getting your coins out of there. If you see a deal and want to make a trade and make some profit - and move your coins quickly - forget it.

They're a gox waiting to happen - IMHO. I get emails filled with excuses every few days from Cryptsy for coins they lost 2 months ago. They repeatedly close unresolved tickets, sending the same BS excuses each time they do. They've taken NO action, but to make excuses, and lying about the last email each time they send a new one. I withdrew all money I could from there (which was a decent sum). The process took a month. Some missing coins only showed up this week. Others are still MIA.

Learn to use paper wallets. Learn not to keep more than you can afford to lose at any time on an online site.

CoinEx and Captainfuture have always taken care of things quickly, CS tickets, etc, and are days / weeks faster than Cryptsy for trading and moving your coins around. If you do a withdrawal from CoinEx it's IN YOUR WALLET nearly always within 3 seconds. They have always responded to tech support within hours - if not minutes. People call Cryptsy "Craptsy" for a good reason.

When you get your first set of excuses and delays from Cryptsy, complain to no one. I have dozens of emails here that would floor you on their back peddling, total lack of action, etc, and I've caught their employees even going to other websites and forums to troll and make sure that people don't expose the Cryptsy nonsense - rather than fixing the problem.

CoinEx is by far my favorite trade site. It's miserable having to mine and transfer to make trades. CoinEx made everything nice and easy: buyers on the front end, miners on the back end.

Withdraw your mining profits daily and don't fret when you lose 24 hours of hashing. I lost maybe $40 in there - plus some OSC that I'd not created a wallet for.

My god, after all the Mt. Gox crap the idea that people would still store hundreds or thousands of dollars of coins online is insane. These coins are worth money - they ARE money. Pay attention. Hackers will do all they can to steal. Major bank sites are hacked all the time. Even Target stores were targeted recently - the hackers totally successful. Banks and credit card companies are hacked all the time.

Learn to protect yourself. Learn encryption. Learn paper wallets. Keep your funds in the block chain where it would take the failure of the entire global internet to lose your coins.


ffftfffft!

I have watched the comments, attempted hijacking, slagging, ass kissing, help, anger and all the other emotions from this incident.

For what its worth, here are my comments/input - take what you want, throw away what you don't:

Transparency in public relations earns the communities respect, be transparent, be quick to respond and ensure that you are keeping customers informed.  
-- Trust me, it is the best strategy, happens all the time in my industry and those that choose this path, always are rewarded for their honesty, communications and earn the respect of their customers and the community.

-- replace your maintenance page with an update = This is what happened, here is where we are at, this is what we are doing, this is when customers should expect the return of their coins, you can/can't keep mining with our pools, etc... prob take 15 minutes to write, just ensure what you write you will do.
-- tweet daily to say "we are still here" working on getting ____ and ____ done, on track...
-- update your facebook page
-- listen to the community, communicate, you have a strong customer following, be loyal, they are to you

Coinex is the best exchange/mining combination out there today (imho), improve the security, preform audits, set up a honeypot, cut a reputable security firm into the profit equation to monitor, audit and fix any potential issues.  If you can't get this done in a reasonable time frame, don't let this stop you doing what you said you would do:

When someone says they will do something, do it.  In this example, you say you will return coins, you have in the past, this is what customers are counting on, make it happen.  

For those thread hijackers, your exchange will not get any of my future business.  Opportunism has its place, when people have lost their coins, some of their earnings, it so tasteless for you to do that, you should have deleted your post, negativity is growing towards your exchange.

I could go on...  but won't

Waiting to see what happens next, earn respect, trust and loyalty, or fuk the community and his own reputation...

Happy days!

It is pretty clear that CoinEx doesn't want to keep us informed, and yet they ask for our good will.  It is time for another update.

Ik hope that what i wrote earlier is not true but as far as i can see all it's happening right under our nose.
Keep in mind that he or they might be gone.
After he wrote the message, the whole conversation changed 180 degrees. (that is what he wanted)

Agreed.  It makes me nervous that he tried to hide first.  CoinEx has been down for weeks and expected to continue operating I would have expected more communication.

The first thing, to show some "good" intentions should be opening the site and keep people informed on a daily base, no matter if they write: ok we tried to open 18 march and we didn't make it because one of the investers (here on this sunny tropical island ) needs time for blablabla, but nothing.

Here he wrote all coins or so, at least also altcoins are gone and at another site (what was written / copied here) stood that it was only BTC and LTC.
Look back the whole chat, in the beginning everybody wanted to do him something worse and after his message all turned into: respect / we want to help / keep my money etc etc.
In the meanwhile he is no longer chased, when he was, and could do what he wanted.

Maybe he will sent us a card from a sunny island

coins which wasnt stolen should be sent back to owners - if there are unstolen wallets, or proportionaly get back, somebody wrote there we can get back for example 50% and in time wi will be getting next 10% perc every month or another way, but just keep doing something and informing us...

p.s. still waiting for next update..

[gnomegawd]

wow... trading volumes at coinex will never return until this is forgotten about.

[patnor1011]

Day 5 and we know no more than we knew on day 1.

[nyktalgia]

Dis be lame mon........

[wackenroader]

Were only Bitcoin stolen or were alt wallets emptied too. If the case is the former, I'd like to withdraw all my alts, and "Maintenance Mode" doesn't seem to be working for people in my situation.

As stated by myself and others several times since page 65 of this thread, yes other coins were taken too.
My post on page 65 shows how I was able to prove that LTC were taken from random accounts on the 18th March (2 days after the site was inaccessible).

My Zeit, WDC and Moon still in coinex , were not stolen.

How do you know?

Can you actually withdraw your coins? Are you still the owner of the private key of those 'deposit' wallets?

Simple, see exemple  (coinex wallet) http://zeitcoin-explorer.info:2750/address/MXJ8xbu4xyfCxbnVzX4knaBkhPAfq8q6Xc

[jommy99]

Well Cryptsy now trades CTM and added Zeit too. http://zeitcoin-explorer.info:2750/address/MXJ8xbu4xyfCxbnVzX4knaBkhPAfq8q6Xc having trouble with the zeit block explorer suddenly darn.

I a hacker is able to do this to coinex.pw, what is stopping him from doing the same to every single crypto exchange out there?

As we all know except from 3 o 4 sites all the other crypto exchanges are handle by amatuers... and could be hacked any time..

[allcrypt]

Because we actually practice what we preach, and think honesty is more important than having to deal with the jackass or two who will yell "I told you so", we had a small breach today which we are investigating. We posted something to the blog and twitter, and in the interest of integrity and actually practiciing what we preach, we thought it'd be appropriate to post this here:

Are all coins at CoinEx stolen?

[dicser]

I want my dogecoin are few but I want it otherwise re sparrow data to my Lawyer

[Zulandio]

I tried to warn people about these guys a month and a half ago when they took my hash by making it so you don't put your user just worker. They took hash but didn't compensate and basically said Tough Shit you should of read the instructions. Sorry but if anyone has any sign of a exchange being shady they need to warn eveyone and everyone needs to GTFO.

[kalelreturns]

I like coinex, its a good exchange but with its amount of users, why is the site only being ran by like 2 people? Coinex has potential but its severely under staffed, it takes months to get replies from support and it clearly taking quiet a while to get the site back up and running. Sorry coinex, you no longer have my support.

Cool story bro.

Vitaly took our coins and ran... SIMPLE!

If any of you that believe he is coming back, you have been fooled. Even after his post about paying back our coins from his own pocket, he was still selling BTC on localbitcoins.com and now that he has sold all the coins there, he has deleted his profile there too.
https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/erundook/

I cannot confirm that the 'CoinEx' Local Bitcoins account belongs to CoinEx.pw or not, but not only it's name but its coincidence with the time of the supposed hack Due to last been seen 5 days, 3 hours ago(at the time of this post) sorta makes me speculate that it is involved.
https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/coinex/

We have all been taken! Don't expect to see any of your coins ever again.

Having hope in him is much like having hope that all politicians have the peoples best interests at heart!

Do I know they are not coming back? NO.... But really, how much more evidence do you need? If he deleted his accounts because he was afraid... Don't you think he would have built them again to show faith? Ha.....He was still deleting accounts long after his post. I am not trying to spread FUD, I am only trying to give reason why we shouldn't get our hopes up any longer.

Why did he post that he was going to pay us back? Good Question...My theory was that he decided to make that post on the very same day that news reports came out about the personal lawsuits against Mt.Gox which included freezing the personal and bitcoin accounts of Mark K., and realized he needed more time to move coins out before his accounts were frozen. Other users have posted how they seen coins still moving out of coinex accounts even after he posted is first reply since the outage.

I will make my apologies if I am wrong, but I have more faith that there will be no need to apologize then I have faith in Vitaly coming back with even a portion of our coins.

Move on and chalk up your losses. Don't stress over CoinEx no more. If they miraculously do come back, then you will have some to be thankful for and something to praise.
