Cryptopia turning into a scam?

[Commie]

I have not used cryptopia for a while but transferred litecoin and ether from it tonight to my exodus wallet. Both transfers were complete in a few minutes.

Sooner or later you will be burned.  I lost $5000 from Cryptopia's negligence after getting my payment stuck in processing for months.  not even an apology or whatever.

I wouldn't use Cryptopia with large sum of money.  Maybe couple hundred dollars worth of mined coins at best.

Happened to me as well, I had to wait for over a month for my deposit to be credited. No apology from them, no explanation, nothing.

I think it turning to scam too.
I lost 200k BTC satoshi in this site ( hacked);
This site not found my deposit in KRB ( cryptopia krb wallet is very instable and many time in maintenance).

See my deposit here, from other ( better)  exchange: http://explorer.karbowanec.com/?hash=acaa7a1360bd5aa32c2961f921a75f7df35c044b210f304a3b22195cf03665d4#blockchain_transaction

My deposit is missing but I won't count cryptopia out yet though because some of the wallets isn't getting updated. I'll give them a couple of days or at least a week before I say anything. I sent a support ticket few hours ago and the waiting time is at 16 days they really should hire more people on their support team.

On the bright side at least you received your coin better than getting nothing. Maybe their wallet wasn't synced that time or it's under maintenance.

Just like you said Cryptopia has a ton of problem even site performance damn poor, wallet maintenance mode a regular issues. Same happened to me, lost my last deposit balance. Contact Cryptopia support instant and got some feedback that kinda positive. Should be fixed soon.

Maintenance mode for last ten mins despite tweet saying maintenance mode finished 3hours ago

New ticketing and help centre working great. Query answered within 24 hours. What a turnaround. Now for this exchange to get back to doing what it does and trading, this will go places.

They really struggled with support response from November to March due to an influx of new users. They recovered in March and April (and did some serious upgrades to their systems) and now have a 72 hour initial response target. More complex issues that require dev support take longer.

I lost thousands @ cryptopia.  I don't care how much better they got.  I'm sure people who lost money there from lack of support feel the same way.

It's how they handled the situation.  They were attacking customers here and not even an apology to the folks who lost money.  Excuse after excuses for their negligence.

Cryptopia staff rarely go onto bitcointalk.

Now did you lost your money? They are laggy for sure, but as far as I can tell they didn't stole money to anyone...

They and staff of other exchange sites do not need to go to bitcointalk. It's not necessary because they can support requests at the site.

When they had announced that they were doing a lot of upgrades he made a withdrawal or deposit and his coins got stuck. At that time their support response took a long time. During that time his coins lost value against BTC. He never lost any coins.

I agree. Support requests through social media is just a invitation for scammers to phish users.

I guess it'd depend on your definition of 'scam'.

I'd be shocked if they aren't getting some kickbacks from adding all these shitcoins.  There is a disturbing amount of them now on Cryptopia.

Yet other "legit" stuff is strangely absent -- like the WAX tokens that Opskins has been pushing for 1/2 a year.

other stuff -- the support has always been slow, but i've never had issues with withdrawal and deposit.  sometimes it takes longer than it should.  a couple days at most, for me.  

the bitcoin fee was adjusted upward for reasons unknown a bit ago, despite bitcoin blocks not being (regularly) full for some time.  the fee could be 50 cents and they'd still profit more than 50% off of t hat.  instead, it's over $4. 

some nominal fee of 5 satoshi or something would be nice for sell orders.  maybe cut down a bit on the bots.

By the looks of things it seems as if Cryptopia is going under....fast...Everyone is missing deposits, support is non-existent. Yet, from the looks of their social media everything seems to be running fine, hell, they're even adding new coins! (of which you lose your deposit when you send it). No word from support on any public platform about the massive amount of people missing funds for weeks. Honestly, it's feeling like Cryptopia went from decent to a complete scam overnight.

I am a user of cryptopia and for me the exchange do not have any issue. My brothers and my friends are also using it from a longer time and we often trade on that exchange for electroneum and it goes nice and smooth without any issue.
I do not know that why you have that much complaints with that exchange. You make sure that you follow all of their guidelines. If you will read the terms and conditions of rules of any platform you want to join before registration and then follow them then you will not face any issue on there.

I dont know why are you saying cryptopia scam i say cryptopia is way more faster than livecoin they register deposits fast than livecoin and send withdrawal way more faster than livecoin like there's 1 - 2 hour delay on livecoin and livecoin is bigger compare to cryptopia. i never met any problems on both of the website but i say cryptopia is not scam.

[TheCryproMaster]

Anyone not noticing a difference with processing times is a deluded nut job. Good performance now. Doing a good job, glad to stuck with them.

[animani]

Cryptopia has stolen a lot of money from random users and now they are continuously delisting coins that you cannot withdraw for one reason or another. They are a bunch of scammers that execute it slowly which in the end ends up being even more profitable. Trying to get far away as soon as I can.

[diecksonbr]

I deposited some coins, confirmed via blockchain, all right.
Trying to support via facebook without response, ticket support tells it to be 72 hours, for something that would be virtually instant. It may not be a scam, but it's extremely slow and I do not recommend it, because it's frustrating to know if I'll be stolen from my coin or when it will be credit

[marecek666]

yep, the same for example with TZC. After a "kind of issue" with withdraw they took TZC under maintenance on 7th dec without any detailed explanation. I tried to withdraw TZC before this, checked their TZC node status (there were 8 connections, it was synced to the correct latest block in that time) and my withdraw still keep in processing status. I was lucky that I was able to withdraw my several other coin wallets from that site during short time after this "issue".

They do a really nice POS mining with our TZC coins for almost last 3 weeks. Really smart solution from their side.

These kind of issues can bring a really bad reputation to this exchange. There is nobody trustworthy from Cryptopia team who can give us detailed explanation about the situation - maybe they really do not want to do it. Only sitting down and take money from people (during "unexpected" issues, or delisting and listing again for another fees). It used to be my first option to use Cryptopia, but it is not longer. It is the last option when there is no other chance for now. :-(

remember guys, Cryptsy did similar stuff before their end ...
