Straight from the horse's mouth.

From 2 employees to 50 in the space of a year.

From 30,000 users to 1,400,000.

I'm amazed it functions at all. Sit tight and see whether they can get on top of their workload.
Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Exactly. All exchanges are clearly overwhelmed atm.

Let's be patient and not succumb to fud.

It's really great to read newbie accounts that say they lost withdrawals.  Probably sent their Grimcoin to their MoneyCoin address.

Meanwhile, we still prosper.  I'm cancelling my DOGE orders and converting them to BTC for the high gaining ones today.  Less USA taxes.  Always look on the bright side.   Grin

My withdrawals went through.

About an hour for a BCH one and about 12 hours for an ETH one.

Don't panic. Be patient.

What are new people using to buy low cap altcoins now that Cryptopia closed new registrations? I forgot to make an account. Is Bleutrade any good? Any others that people recommend?

Binance just announced they are reopening registration, but they mainly just have mid cap coins. I'm looking for those cheap high risk/high reward buys.

I think everything has been fixed. cryptopia not scam. It is a great exchange in the world. They have the world's leading staff. A few days ago I had some errors. I withdraw money but not receive emails, but I was corrected soon after. I'm sure it's not scam

This is slightly worrying as I still have some money left in cryptopia - should I take it out now?
You need to move them immediately from there if you still have the ability to log on your account.
I can't trust them anymore after loosing my funds after deposit and still no response from dead support.

Apologies on the dely on my response. Just wanted to clear some stuff up;

Yes this is from personal experience - i have sent a deposit to Cryptopia on Dec 21'st, funds never showed so i put in a support ticket and i have still to this day not heard back from them. I then went into their discord channel a few days ago and they basically made it seem like it wasn't a problem at all. The staff completely blew the issue off and said it was simply "growing pains". If you take a look at their social media accounts you'll see mentions of this and no responses. Reddit is saying the same thing about this site; The only reason i used it was to purchase ETN when it first came out and it's just been hell trying to recover my funds.


Side note; i am new to these forums but i am not new to Crypto. I always lurked here but never registered so the whole "newbie" argument isn't really valid. I didn't create this account simply to flame Cryptopia - i just wanted to finally join the community.

Same issue. I tried to withdraw my ETH value and altough they created TX for my transaction, I cannot see it any ETH blockchain explorer. Also, there is nothing in my wallet about this transaction.

I agree with you about cryptopia's situation. I think they're turning into SCAM very fast.

I'll wait for my ticket's result. I let you know about the issue.

Coinexchange, HitBTC, and C-Cex.  Yobit has been stable but they don't have a good reputation, but people complain about all the exchanges.

I never had problems with cryptopia thus far. That being said i only withdraw or deposit altcoins almost all the time and ETH just once only a few days back.

Problems still presist as withdraws appear to be selective... ie I've had BTC go out lightning quick but now have two stuck BPL withdraws.

Course it goes without saying that they cannot disable markets and coins to maintain a stable platform... that would cut into profits. Instead the end user suffers. Just another day in crypto.

This post sums up why all this bullshit is a scam
Read It. Hate It. Change the facts that it represents.

I am glad I have withdrawn all of my coins months ago from there.
Look at the administrator language to their users (me for example)

I know exactly how you feel. I went into their discord and tried to get some clarity in their discord and the admins basically told me that the missing deposits/withdraws weren't that big of an issue. Apparently the site is "Running fine" and that the people complaining just looks like a lot because they're making a lot of noise. Completely turned me off. I don't understand how potentially thousands of dollars being up in the air right now isn't that big of a deal. Any multi-million dollar company should have absolutely no issues hiring support. ESPECIALLY when other peoples' money is at stake.

https://fma.govt.nz/contact/make-a-complaint/make-a-complaint-online/#UserForm_Form any complaints about cryptopia's fraudulent activity should be directed here if you want to see justice....they swindled me out of thousands with their paccoin scam then locked my account with the rest of my funds on it when I complained on there forum.

Best advice i can give is to just wait it out, hope they come through and pretend that the funds are lost at this point.
