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

[doedz]

Did the finally solve the thousands of tickets about verification and thousands of disabled accounts? It's quite remarkable that people are still using them after that incident. I consider them extremely unreliable, close to a scam.

I agree, crypto is extremely strange space, and bittrex story must be one of the strangest in an already strange landscape. Bittrex is not 'close to a scam' it IS a scam, there are unambiguous cases of theft on a mass scale, it's just the Bitcoin bubble and associated greed creates this weird situation where despite the clear evidence of bittrex stealing user funds, so many noobies are scrambling to get access to the 'gold rush' that they've collectively suspended both common sense and morality.

Bittrex is an outlaw exchange, probably in cahoots with USA government.

I think Bittrex is a safe exchange so far. I do not have any constraints after 3 years of struggling here.
His support is very responsive and communicative.

Indeed yesterday there was a little problem in terms of account verification for some members but it has been solved in Bittrex gradually.
What disturbed me was how they delisted some coins that were not explained for what reason.

no exchange is safe especially one like bittrex that would steal/lock up your coins without warning!!! :\

imho : they deserve to have EVERYTHING taken from them + class action lawsuit inkoming .

Yes, it is true there will be no safe exchange because there is always a problem in every exchange.
But I'm sure if we do not do anything suspicious then the exchange also will not freeze or take our coin.
And do not use VPN to log in to exchange, it's suicide.

They already fucked up a few months ago, locking people out of their accounts for no reason for months, they are unreliable.

Still waiting for Bittrex to support the xmv coin!

Still waiting for Bittrex to support the xmv coin!

Do you even read anything here? How can you use them as your exchange when this topic is literally filled with thousands of complaints of people. ''My ticket 433011 was created on Nov 12 / 2017 and is still disabled (although numerous reminder / requests have been sent)'' Even to this day, they still haven't solved their issues, it's insane.

MZC was removed for no reason they have a real community it's crazy they support their own insider built coins and tokens like JBS/UBQ and what happens to mazacoin ? :\  hmmm HIGHLY suspect.

Hey, news about listing MoneroV? Are we getting the new coins?

[serhanni]

I had a problem with account verification because of non-English character. After a month passed without any reply from support, I mentioned about the problem over twitter. Even I don't have more than 10+ follower, they sent an e-mail to and they said they are about to hire more people to their support team. Probably they found my e-mail address by ticket number. And a week later my verification was completed.

Yeah but, you shouldn't have to verify yourself in order to withdraw cryptos, that's pretty stupid and the fact that they did it without any kind of notice is suspicious. Any other exchange has a limit on how much cryptos you can withdraw without verification but all of them let you withdraw at least something.

I think it's a scam to collect personal data, some DHS staff joined Bittrex in December.

If they were honest, Bittrex would have given people notice and a grace period to withdraw their funds.

As I result I can see that Bittrex are loosing market share, fallen down from number 2 spot to number 7 since they did this.

Are you at least preparing for the snapshot of MoneroV in 5 hours?

Why dont you upload your ID, have your account verified, withdraw your coins and never come back? I think some people dont have the proper IDs to have them verified. There are some people who have multi-accounts on the site which they dont want to be caught red handed wash trading low volume coins.

I am pretty sure that's what a lot of people are doing, otherwise how to you explain the sudden drop in Bittrex market share since they started this verification scam.  Remember the old adage, "only 4% of customers complain, 96% will simply go elsewhere"

I see it ending either with the Bittrex shareholders screaming blue murder, and forcing management to do the right thing by the clients to stop the exodus, or Bittrex quietly fades away as more honorable exchanges take over Bittrex clients. Remember the AML, KYC cover story for suspending withdrawals on unverified accounts is bogus on two fronts. Firstly, Bittrex don't do fiat. Secondly they could move their headquarters offshore if they wanted to do fiat and skip all the nonsense. Either way, the don't have a feasible excuse for suddenly seizing their customers funds and holding them ransom until they get private information (which has value) from them.

They have said many times, if they support fork they will make announcement if they not announce it then it isn't supported.

Update: April 26, 2018

The MoneroV [XMV] team revised their fork date to April 30, 2018. At this time, Bittrex is not planning to support the MoneroV [XMV] non-native fork of Monero [XMR] planned for April 30, 2018. Their team recently contacted us, but they did not apply in time to complete our token review process before the fork date. If we make any changes, we would publish an update both on our support site and on our Twitter handle @BittrexExchange.

Good points, there is no justification for what bittrex have done, I refuse to hand over my personal details to people who act dishonestly , like changing terms and freezing accounts without a grace period. People who do this would also be likely to sell the user data for profit, and maybe you end up like that guy in England with 4 balaclava clad gangsters paying you and your family a visit one morning in a crypto home invasion.

It is actually a legal requirement from the US Government. Bittrex don't have a choice in it. It has to do with AML laws and trading with embargoed countries.

poloniex beside US too, but they aren't act like Bittrex and scam their users. at least Bittrex should wearing their users and give them time to withdraw their funds. that is if Bittrex was a lighnt exchange.

Poloniex will change too.

Bittrex is preparing to cater for the big big growth phase - the wallstreet traders. For that they have to have a higher standard of compliance and it will put them under further scrutiny.

I believe that exchanges that are of vague owneship or country of residence like HITbtc, Binance and Yobit may become increasingly a target for regulators.

In order to become a mainstream accepted exchange they have to comply with a variety of existing laws and increasing regulation.
