[ANN] Bittrex - Next generation exchange (btc/ltc/eac/ppc/rdd/ftc/and more)

[gembitz]

Well, I personally don't think that Bittrex is a scam.
Rising of popularity of the cryptocurrencies causes a huge flow of the newcomers.
Based on that we can surely assume that the number of support tickets at Bittrex has increased tremendously over the past few past months.
Even though i am also having a user verification issue - Request #483003, I just think, that they need some time to process all these tickets.
There are many examples of people having theirs tickets solved.
On the other hand, I would expected someone from Bittrex to give an official announcment that they are indeed working on improvents of their support system.

%1000 sure it's not only a scam it's the fucking pigs trying to get your PERSONAL INFORMATION i wanna know where these bittrex people live i will go kick some ass<<< #chucknorris

Thank you for information. I've just wanted allocate some funds on Bittrex. I've tested that exchange for a while and It seemed really good... Now, I need to learn more about this situation, before sending funds.

Bittrex has limits on withdrawing for the accounts that are not verified. The limits are so bad that if you are not verified at all you cannot withdraw.
Many have complained about this as an abuse, about the fact that many accounts (with old funds on them) were not validated and so on.
I've had this surprise myself and my basic validation has failed.
However, by enhanced validation went thru and I can withdraw now.

So: verify your account (basic for small amounts, enhanced for large amounts or if basic failed). If it works, you should be fine. If it doesn't work.. oh well, at least you didn't deposit yet.

not that i understand a single word, but if the subs are correct this should be shared wherever possible

I don't understand arabic either, but if you listen carefully, you can hear similar words in vocal as in subtitles. That adds credibility, of course that's not a 100% method.

So you think by shilling you will get further ahead in the line? If you had serious money in that Shitcoin Shitchange, you wouldn't be so cool with waiting for months (possibly indefinitely) to get access to your own funds.

Judging by your ticket number you're probably standing in line for at least 2 weeks already.

To everyone saaying: "but it all works for me"

That's nice for you... I guess. Problem is they make arbitrary decisions with no explanation. Support is non-existent. You have virtually no recourse if you get not-verified/suspended/frozen for whatever reason. Aren't you worried that your account might be next and you'll be the one posting here with no sympathy from the "I'm alright Jack" brigade. After reading this thread (and tons of similar ones all over forums and reddit), even if I had everything verified nicely there is no way I would put any money on this exchange.

Plus really, this whole situation is damaging the whole crypto. Everything is so interconnected. When the SEC steps, the dream of decentralised currency dies before it even has a chance to develop .

[cjmoles]

I knew it ---> Just heard in the US daily White House Press Briefing that the Department of Homeland Security had a confidential briefing with the administration on bitcoin last week! Is it coincidence that my withdrawals were disabled on Bittrex last week?  Nope, they are in an information collection mode right now ---> The US government is building a database of Bitcoin users and Bittrex is helping them do it.

You've Been Warned

Bittrex is doing what they are doing without fear of retribution because they are working with the United States Department of Homeland Security.

Absolutely agree here.

Most people here don't get the problem with Bittrex. It's not only about
the verification process that constantly fails and forces NON US customers
to do a extended verification (not necessary for small deposits!!!).

It is about  Bittrex locking up LEGACY accounts
just like that and without any date or warning and
allowing unlimited deposits  but no withdraws.


AGAIN: BITTREX please give all LOYAL LEGACY users the possibility to withdraw their funds until end of year.
That would be perfectly fine for me! Thank you.

does this mean im getting on the no fly list

[rapidleech]

Following.
They might have problems with the government, they might have an unexpected high volume of new requests, they might be understaffed... it can be anything, but one thing is for sure: you can't treat your clients like this. People opened a ticket without getting a reply for weeks or months. Not a company I want to be in business with, they won't see a cent from me anymore, even if I get my money back.

Name_mismatch, ticket #496274
Waiting long-long time... Still no answer.

Who knows where they are located?
I cannot wait months, I need my money back right now!

[pooya87]

Imagine you working with someone in some business, you trust your money to him. And one day he says: "Hey, I will not give your money back to you. I don't know you good enough! I need more information about you, your family, your biography... Do you have a car? Maybe problems with a law? Do you drink alcohol (I don't trust alcoholics)? I need your fingerprints too... Can you dance - I'd like to give money only to a good dancer first"...

I'll play the devil's advocate here.
Even though on a human level I agree with your logic.
1. BitCoin isn't money, not for US company. Neither other tokens.
2. Even if BitCoins were considered as money, they would still require full compliance with KYC/AML. Have you ever been to bank? They always ask same questions. Dealing with money was insanely complicated for ages. Dealing with BTC suppose to be easier, but only until point of "exit" where you have to go back dealing with banks once again.

It would really helped if Bittrex was more transparent on their banking relations and the actual requirements they follow, but I think they won't, simply because all those requirements not written yet so they follow vague recommendations to avoid any possible trouble. That results in ugly collateral damage as we see.

i don't know why you guys are arguing about these things. you are complicating something that is very simple!

you are offering a service and have a set of rules. i read them, even contact you and ask any questions i have, then if i agree with them i use your service.
then some day you change your rules, i disagree with them, so i stop using your service. simple and clean.

but here is what happened: bittrex changed their rules overnight without any warning and that meant we could not get our money out and they didn't offer any alternative for us either. dirty way of scamming people out of their money.

whether bitcoin is money or not money or they have AML/KYC or not doesn't change any of that.

as a matter of fact back in 2014 i remember Coinbase did the exact same thing but sent an Email to its users whose accounts were blocked the same way, asking them for a bitcoin address so they can send them their funds. simple and clean coming from a transparent and non-scammy service.
