thank you for your reply.

I am very glad, that you have adopted this approach to questions raised.
As stated before my intent is not in the least to insult or attack hitbtc.com, but to get answers in regard to questions which are fundamental to my decision to trust you with my money.
As the evolution of this thread has shown I am not alone with this sentment and for this I must applaude your public and more important comprehensive answer.

Concerning your handling of deposits, withdrawals, and the technical aspects of your platform. I never was given reason to doubt your professionalsim. On the contrary. In my view you are doing an excellent job at those subjects.  I hope you can manage to keep up the standards you have established.
I will gladly look into the details for the companies you have provided and continue business with you if what I find fits my risk propensity.

For the time being I wish you good luck with your ventures and hope for you to uphold this open approach.

now i am nearly really finished with this suspicious service

1. issue: 21.05.2014
only ~ 13.34 % of my EURO-withdraw was sent to my bank account
the rest of that money after e-mail-conversation - the same day - so far so good

2. issue: 26.05.2014
my BTC-deposit is not shown at my account - for now 23 hours
first e-mail-conversation - yesterday after 6 btc-confimations with the details of the transaction
second e-mail-conversation - today with smooth gox-like sentences that i will be informed when the issue is solved

hey wake up now - where is the real problem to show up a BTC-deposit at my account?

i have had some very bad experiences with MtGox in the past - i don't like repeating it!

hello hitbtc,

So are there any news on the legality [EDIT to avoid confusion in terminology:] legal status of the company behind hitbtc.com?

This (+rest of the post)

There's no info on who owns the business stated on the website. I believe it's illegal in EU (not sure about US) to run any kind of online business without stating such info.

I would discourage anyone from using this site until they get this sorted out.

Dear ClubCrypto,

We use two-factor authentication to protect users' password; SSL to protect important information from capturing. Inside the exchange the complex data protection methods are used: multifactor authentication for administrators; cold wallet is used to protect the funds. Would you mind clarifying what exactly are you interested in?
