It has been pretty much confirmed that coinmarket.io has scammed it's users and we talking about over 2000 btc as a modest estimate alone excluding the value of the alt coins that have been taken.

Not only was this a financial loss but a time wasting / emotional ride for it's users as they kept stringing the public along thinking they would come back online to try get as much deposits as possible
before finally going down for the last time yesterday.

It's one thing creating a scam coin but exchanges are far worse beasts, if this is going to be the new trend then I don't see much of a future for virtual currencies without heavy regulation.

They also had the arrogance to create a new exchange called CryptoEX.cc which has already stopped withdrawals for the few people that deposited.

Wow, very weird that was able to withdraw my btc a few days after it was closed. Probably not the initial plan to scam but changed his mind.
This can happen with most exchanges.

Well, let's say he made more off it than I do in quite a few months... 'Stupid' though he may be, he's laughing all the way to a nice warm island.

coinmarket.io is currently online. it seems, there are not many coins left, so maybe it is possible to withdraw. I was using it before but now I do not have there anything, so I can not test whether withdrawals work. BTW. I liked this exchange, it has good interface, and no lags. It is a pity it has no future now.

The exchange platforms may not be as popular as the people might think because once the mass adoption of cryptocurrency occurs the success of anyone cryptocurrency will have a huge effect as most people will want to own that cryptocurrency as many of the economic activities will be based on that currency so the concept of exchange is useless if future.
