Cryptopia turning into a scam?

[eight5nine]

By the looks of things it seems as if Cryptopia is going under....fast...Everyone is missing deposits, support is non-existent. Yet, from the looks of their social media everything seems to be running fine, hell, they're even adding new coins! (of which you lose your deposit when you send it). No word from support on any public platform about the massive amount of people missing funds for weeks. Honestly, it's feeling like Cryptopia went from decent to a complete scam overnight.

I am sorry to hear of this bad news. I used to use Cryptopia a lot until I got hacked once, when there was amass hacking, then they changed to a better safety standard, but I used to think their support was pretty decent. I haven't done a trade there in more than a month now so I don't know what is happening right now. I will go check it out again in a few days and see what it's like again. Maybe the festive season has slowed everything down, including support.

I have used Cryptopia only for Electroneum once. Haven't faced any issue though. But yeah, never trust these small exchanges, In fact its difficult to trust any exchange for that matter after the Mt. Got Case. Normally you can get small coins into Cryptopia by paying around $25000 if I'm not right.

But talking about OP's problem it could be a bug that caused this. And due to holidays the support would have been limited. Try checking their twitter or reddit for any updates. I faced a similar issue on Bitfinex XRP withdrawal. I was charged fee of 0.02 BTC. The support still hasn't responded back.

When the exchange opens a section of buy / sell - large traders will not come to it. This section is the first sign that everything is bad on this exchange.

This is slightly worrying as I still have some money left in cryptopia - should I take it out now?

Same here, I transferred XEM a few days ago and their is nothing in my account.  I wrote support 24 hours after the transfer and haven't heard anything.  Check their forums for issues and it's wide spread.  I'm just glad my transfer was small.

Well for me i have not experience to trade or used the crytopia as what you said you just have once hacked to so i need to be wise in trading desicion .
And  next time we must become wise and becareful.

what you said made me confused. your account is a newbie and register on 24/12/2017
I'm not sure that you are having trouble with crytopia or you are trying to reduce their reputation
I used crytopia a long time and most of my Bitcoin lies in it. I've been having a problem with deposit doge into it and support a rapid response. Please wait patiently

[BitcoinHodler]

all the centralized exchanges are scam until proven otherwise.
even the biggest ones like Bittrex have scammed people out of millions of dollars worth of bitcoin and altcoins combined and there is nothing anybody is doing about them!

massive amount of people missing funds for weeks.

can you give us some more information about this because i have not seen anyone complaining yet. i am using Cryptopia without a problem so far but i would like to be aware if there is some real problem going on.

[Babebottle]

Never heard of that,i use cryptopia for a long time, and they are pretty good.It is werid  that you are only a newbie, and make only one post,which is "Cryptopia turning into a scam? "

[adiksau0414]

Is this true? I am using it for my tokens (cryptopia is the only i can use as of now for that specific token). Also, i thought its one of the major and know exchange, thanks for the info, its just a small exchange site. As of now, i dont have any issue regarding with it. I am hoping i dont experience one. But, a while ago as i check their site, iys keep on having an error and i cant check my account. I dont know if this is just their maintenance or theres really something happening

[bcoinnn]

Yeah, sounds bad

I am using cryptopia as well but I am not experiencing any difficulties with them. Can't you site some links or screen shots to prove your allegation?

[equator]

I agree with OP as last month in mid i have sold some old altcoin which gave me good price and then i gave withdrawal request and when they are sending the confirmation email in that the link to confirm the withdrawal is not highlighting and support is not responsive. It was my smartness that i found it through mouse cursor difference and confirmed my transaction. I was using this exchange for more then 2 yrs but now i am not feeling safe to use this exchange for any transaction.

No wonder at the start I feel this site might turn to a scam site someday. Its so sad to see in our own site trading sites are closing and stealing customer's crypto money. Watch out, Etherdelta is already on its way.

This exchange site just the same like hitbtc, because both were not giving any response to the users. This is very sad how people are still believing in this exchange site. As you can see how the people come to the centralized exchange because they are thinking the fees was really cheap. All of the centralized exchange is very risky.

why isn't there a good and realiable decentralized exchange for all coins?

Is this based from your own personal experience or this is based on someone else's rant about Cryptopia. I am not trying to defend Cryptopia or I am paid to defend them in any way but I never had any bad experience from them (yet). I used Cryptopia because of ETN and OTN, I earned some from my trades there and I am happy (so far) but complaints from others? I haven't seen one yet.

[Simon pasco]

it can not be worse than etherdelta and their "phising" that they had a few days ago

[dothebeats]

This should be moved into Service Discussion

Heard quite a bit of good reviews from them way, way back and some even recommended it as one good exchange platform out there. Never used the site, nor even bothered registering since these exchanges popping up here and there (like Mintpal in 2015) share almost the same generic design and accepts all kinds of coin without even considering what the coin can actually do or if there is any substantial support from the community and not just because the devs paid for their coin to be listed.

Never heard of that,i use cryptopia for a long time, and they are pretty good.It is werid  that you are only a newbie, and make only one post,which is "Cryptopia turning into a scam? "

Many users have already been reporting weird deposits not appearing on their balances, or balances that were there but only went missing after a few hours/days.
