What are your experiences with Cryptopia (exchange)?

[Netcre]

Hey!

So, here is the deal:
Some of my friends tell me Cryptopia is a solid exchange to trade on. Especially for the smaller coins (not in the top 300),
But, some other friends absolutely hate Cryptopia, they say the UI sucks and it even has scam coins on them.
Both of them have a point, I know the UI isn't the best, but i also know it's good to trade smaller coins on.

I'm wondering, have you ever used this exchange and if yes, would you recommend it?
Looking forward to see some of your replies!

I've used it last year. And yes, most of the coins and tokens that are getting listed there are the coins and tokens that people barely know about. Does the UI/UX suck? Yes. But it works; and that's what mattered to me in the past as I only had to do one trade anyway. Take note that this was last year though, I don't know how good or bad it is right now.

I use cryptopia every now and than, mostly when I have to trade some lesser known coins that I cannot trade elsewhere. I can't say that it's great, but most of the time it works OK. What you need to pay attention to is the current wallet status relative to the coins you are about to trade:

If it says "In Maintenance", you may experience problems with withdrawals, deposits, and trading in general. It has happened to me a couple of times before, and I had to wait. But if you wait long enough, everything will eventually be fine.

Because of what some traders has said concerning cryptopia I have not been trading with them until recently. However since I have been using them I did not have any complaints about cryptopia and it did not suck. You should have in mind that you make profits from cryptopia if you know how to do coins flipping.

This exchange more than 2 years operated and i used it long time ago, for deposit and withdrawal is running smothly all the times. But one thing that should be added on this exchange is features of stop limit so i can use it for stop loss, because mostly all low cap coin is more volatility than biggest cap coin, i been loss more than 50% just a few days in this exchange because no stop loss feature.

I have been using crypto since the beginning of this year. What I can say is that cryptopia is not bad exchanges, just that they used o list unpopular coins or tokens. The user interface is ok.

Yes be careful with coin scams if you want to buy and sell on the exchange market is it better to pick up the top 10 big altcoins they are trustworthy and famous in various trades there must be safe away from fraud

I'm wondering, have you ever used this exchange and if yes, would you recommend it?

It's about average exchange and I use it because KYC is not required
I would recommend it for low to medium amount of trading money, also for not-so-popular cryptos

Nope  i can't use cryptopia exchange, i use before bittrex and poloniex  but now will turn into nexybit hybrid platform easy to use and with high security measure for your asset so i suggest if you have a doubt to cryptopia exchange try this one i recommend

[nydiacaskey01]

There's too many sh*t coins there. For me Cryptopia is next to Yobit. Don't get wrong, there are people out there who makes a lot of money in Cryptopia because of those unknown coins that they list specially those that are priced at 10 Satoshis or even lower. I made a few trades there but never really store a lot of funds in that site unlike the money the money that I invest in Binance and Bittrex.

I agree with everything you have said. I just want to add something to what have mentioned already. Cryptopia has a lot of withdrawal and deposit issues, I mean all of the exchanges can experience the same issue, but Cryptopia have it too much. Maybe because of the number of coins listed on their exchange.
I once have an issue with deposit months ago, and It was the most frustrating experience Ive ever had in any exchange. The support ticket took almost 2 months without a single update on the status of my deposit to reply and fix the problem.

[jhenfelipe]

I do use Cryptopia, since 2016. If based on experience, I would recommend it because I haven't had any problems with their service (so far), others do have though, so the decision is still up to you.

It's a must to check the status of the wallet(s) first before making any transaction (@butka provided the link above) and just don't put all your crypto in one exchange, diversify. We are not sure what will happen later today, tomorrow, or in the future.

[leowonderful]

The old site layout wasn't the greatest, but it was still accessible and worked fine. The site looks better now and it functioned fine back when I was on the exchange to list a few lesser-known coins like Bitcore for sale, nothing special or out of the ordinary. I have seen people report about the occasional problem here and there about the exchange, and it seems things haven't changed a whole lot on that end, but it's definitely better than a comparable exchange like Yobit. I would still exercise the normal procedures to be used on an exchange, like not storing too many funds on site (or really just store as much as you are willing to lose).

[Renaldi blackspadeteam]

yes, sometimes I see there are Crypto coins / tokens that are not registered in coinmarketcap, but I only trade with Crypto which has been registered in coinmarketcap only, so I trade always safe,

[bering]

During use that exchange i was got bad experience that my coins were stuck at there because the deposit showed complete confirmations but my coins does not appears into my accounts and i was send ticket support to solved my issue but their contact supports were very low respond although my issue eventually solved but it took more than a month to do so and after got this experience then i decide to not use them anymore and switch to another exchange

They are one of the few places that accepts spectrecoin in their portfolio and the only place I can either buy or sell more of it which means I do not use them commonly for all my work however I do use it frequently for staking purposes and getting more spectre whenever I have money (I believe spectre is highly undervalued and should go up at least x4-5 levels on top of this).

So far anytime I used it they have been doing great, quite fast, easy to understand gui and I have no idea how their support is, good part about that is that it means I never needed to use their support to know how it is, when you never need the support guys that's a good thing.

[adaseb]

I've been with Crytopia for years and never had any issues.

They never did KYC.

The only issues in my opinion is that there liquidity is low for some coins and their withdraw fees are high for coins like BTC and USDT.

They also have issues with daemon wallets and takes a while for them to reboot them. However this rarely happens.

So no complaints here about Crytopia, good exchange.

[jonhn772]

I've using cryptopia exchange for couple of years. But I still didn't faced any problems. It is very good exchange with so many cryptocurrency.

[vinjan]

i often use there to sell my token and so far is ok never had problem, deposit and withdraw enough faster. i think crytopia UI is simple and easy 

[rapsa2018]

Cryptopia is same with other exchanges and good exchanger also It's like Idex and Latoken but cryptopia is more than good than them.
