kumala is a fucking scammer

I heard such stories about his previous projects, though he is anonymous and i had no luck finding someone who knows him and could contact him for me when i requested info about labcoin shares traded.

[SebastianJu]

Kumala, yesterday i was told that the email system is not completely stuck. The issuers still receive their list of shareholders from cryptostocks via email. Only the users don't get emails. And no email for dividends that are paid out happen either.

So maybe you have two different scripts running there. One for you and issuers and one for shareholders. The latter script seems not to work. Hope you fix it.

is it down forever?

Good questions ... I like to know as well ...

It seems that more and more pages are using Bootstrap and hence they seem to look more and more alike. I see this as a positive thing, as users are confronted with a similar GUI but it takes away a large part of the unique look.

Who are we? Cryptostocks is run by the same group of people who run https://vircurex.com. As such I believe we have proven over the past 9 months that we are running a secure and sound business and earned the trust of our customers.

vircurex is still working then, are they still run by the same people.   Thing is the stock should not be reliant on the exchange for value so its not quite as bad as when coin exchange with deposits fails in service

If they are still owned by the same people then it's strange that vircurex still runs fine while cryptostocks is abandoned. At least they should have asked the issuers to move the stocks to vircurex then.

+1
But it might also be a sign that virurex.com will share the same fate in the near future. I'm going to stop trading with them and withdraw all my funds.

If more do the same then it might lead to some answers coming through. Maybe if we are lucky we get a working cryptostocks, like a deadline, so that we can at least withdraw everything. Of course the user emails need to be repaired since users that enabled email confirmation can't withdraw their coins even when cryptostocks is up.

My observation: Cryptostocks does not work when a Cryptsy problem.
Cryptostocks somehow connected with Cryptsy

I don't think so ...

I asked the vircurex support if they can forward my bug report to the owner but no reaction at all from them. I wonder if that is the general reaction on support requests at vircurex but it would be a bad sign for vircurex too, if so.

I had a support issue a 2 years ago (with vircurex) .. it took them 3 days to answer.

Then it might be the type of request i had. Anyway, it seems cryptostocks is back since some hours. Still the email functionality only works for the issuers, who receive their daily list of shareholders. But not for the normal user.

I'm not sure if kumala only added this now but at the bottom in settings there is a button to check if one can receive emails from cs. Though i can't receive emails from them. And my emailprovider is not blocking anything since i control it somewhat. The strange thing is that it worked months ago, now not anymore.

Hmm ... I can't find that button. But I tried to withdraw some BTC and I got the message that the Wallet is offline. So I guess it is not fully fixed yet.

Wow, that sounds bad. Well, i think nobody except maybe issuers will send coins there. Hopefully.

The button is at the bottom of the settings page when you click your username -> settings and then on the bottom is the checkbox for email confirmation and below a button to check if you can receive email.

But don't worry, users can't.

Found it it. Any you are right .. it does not work.

It's in the work though it's hard to do at all since cryptostocks hasn't the best ways to find the shareholders. For example other exchanges created list with shareholders that were sent to the issuer so they can know who owns the shares. But cryptostocks send out email addresses for the shareholders and still you don't know all users because you only have those in the list that allowed the shareholders to see the investors email.

It's not easy.

But that the wallet is offline is pretty bad. Was not the case before. Or is it online again?

[SebastianJu]

It seems the wallet is online again since i received word that someone was able to withdraw.

I noticed the news page on the home pages mentions that kumala is aware of the email problem and that it's the fault of a third party software. He claimed he wants to replace it but the news is from august. Might even be august 2014 since cryptostocks does not show any years on any page. Guess accounting would be hard to prove if bitcoin projects wouldn't die so fast that you can be sure that some dates are from a certain year.

Guess cryptostocks only was rising because no alternatives were there back in the time.
