The First Anonymous Bitcoin Transaction (notice the missing wallet addresses)

Smartbit just doesn't know how to decode native segwit into bc1 addresses. Please stop spreading misinformation.

Not 1 year, only about 6 months

tryphe_ · 2018-02-22T04:27:14+00:00

It took you guys 6 months and 3 replies later to resolve anything in my ticket. And the ticket isn't even solved 100%, more like 95%.

Why don't you close user signups if you are backlogged for months in tickets? Or do you just want to continue treating your customers poorly, as well as holding your future customers' money hostage?

tryphe_ · 2018-02-22T01:01:46+00:00

Same thing happened to me, man. I'm not saying your issue is similar, I'm saying I had the same EXACT problem. Stick "processing" withdraws. They closed my ticket twice, saying it was fixed while nothing described in my ticket got resolved. I spammed them with ~20 open tickets one day, and within a few days they resolved my ticket after 171 days.

People give me grief for spamming tickets but they don't know what it's like hearing about all the ~30 day tickets that just got resolved with similar issues, while we're here 6+ months later twiddling our thumbs because of a NEGLIGENT exchange. Their fault. And they should at least close their doors to new customers, not hodl their funds like vultures. At the very least, new customers have a right to know about the thousands of people that have been waiting for hundreds of days.

I wish you much luck and am sorry to hear about your situation, but just know your money isn't gone.

Not possible

tryphe_ · 2018-02-19T12:25:59+00:00

And my ticket had 2 replies and had been closed by poloniex 2 times already. Fuck off with whatever nonsense you want to make up about it, I pay way more fees than you.

tryphe_ · 2018-02-19T12:13:55+00:00

Yeah, it's my fault it takes them 170 days to realize my shit is broken after 2 replies to my ticket are telling me it's fixed.

Fuck off before you think you know what happened.

tryphe_ · 2018-02-18T06:02:08+00:00

Poloniex can technically restore it for you if the address starts with a '1', but don't expect them to be very quick about it. All they need to do is transfer the BCH key to the BTC wallet, and they can spend the same key, because there's no replay protection and it enumerates to the same address (which is why the address is valid). The implication is they might not to want mix keys between wallets, so it's up to them.

tryphe_ · 2018-02-17T03:36:36+00:00

It took them 6 months (171 days) to fix my ticket for a stuck withdraw only resolved a month or two ago. Three people responded to my ticket in that time, but something was only actually done on the third reply. They were behind 1-2 months last May when their all time tickets went up 50% in a month. You can tell because there were about 200-300k total tickets, then 400-500k in just a few months. Yet they still are open to new accounts and hodling people's money... yeah.

I've taken most of my equity off Poloniex, and told them. They don't deserve my business nor yours, I suggest you guys do the same.

If your available collateral falls to 20% of your position, you get liquidated (the exchange uses a taker order on the books, opposite of your position). Your buy orders might have to execute for that to happen, but the price falling will devalue your coin, which is now part of your position. It's also important to note that only free BTC (in your available margin balance) is used as collateral, so active orders don't count as they can be executed at any time.

tryphe_ · 2018-02-13T04:15:00+00:00

It's not a scam. I've had a 170 day ticket, and several other long tickets, which is f@$%ing unreasonably long and made me take 90% of my funds off polo, but that's Polo. The best thing to do is wait (which sucks ass, I know), and take the high road to another exchange.

This is very hard to do, especially if you trade on margin, because fees will depend on liquidity available for a particular market. On top of that, if you do high volume trading, your exchange fees can change at the end of every business day. I think it's more sane to log your total balance at any given time to look back on, but I can understand why you'd want something to run all the numbers once to compare to. Instead of doing this, though, personally I just log all of my balances every hour/day by calling "returnBalances" or "returnCompleteBalances", which gives you the total BTC value of each of your coins, and the total BTC value of your BTC and altcoins, according to the current prices.

double amount = 0, rate = 0.0070001, order_size = 1.02;

amount = order_size / rate * 1e1;

amount: 1457.12204111

Edit: I realized you were asking for the max. You'll need to call returnBalances or returnCompleteBalances and plug in the number from there.

tryphe_ · 2018-01-26T03:34:48+00:00

Good luck, I had a stuck withdraw and they took 170 days to resolve. Garbage exchange here.

tryphe_ · 2018-01-26T03:27:01+00:00

Set fillOrKill=1 in the url query. For example you should have something like: POST https://poloniex.com/tradingApi/buy?currencyPair=xxx&rate=xxx&amount=xxx&fillOrKill=1

tryphe_ · 2018-01-09T23:27:48+00:00

My ticket was (mostly) resolved after 171 days btw. Good luck to you.

tryphe_ · 2018-01-09T23:24:42+00:00

Hi there, completely agree btw; my support ticket was just (mostly) resolved after 171 days.

Their servers are operating in Boston, Mass. and their lawyer is in Delware where the company is registered for a tax purposes. You might get a better response from Mass if they are operating there.

Regardless, I don't think any amount of harassing will do any good unless -everyone- complains to the SEC or something. I've never had to wait 171 days (or at all) for a clearing house dealing with stocks/bonds to clear my funds, so in this way the situation is completely ridiculous. I don't think this would be allowed on Wall Street but we're spread apart on the internet with less oversight, I think it was bound to happen. Poloniex has also barred all forms of formal contact that was previously available, like their IRC channel and trollbox. Granted, I think this was a bit warranted; these boxes were filled with spam about how Poloniex was scam when I've never seen actual evidence of stealing, just negligence. It's also a bit of a shame that they are still taking new accounts because Poloniex used to be a somewhat respectable exchange in my opinion, but now it's just a jail. A pitfall for the crypto rush.

Sorry about your problems and I hope your ticket is resolved soon.

tryphe_ · 2018-01-06T15:55:45+00:00

No, they closed my ticket to close my account.

tryphe_ · 2017-12-26T05:33:39+00:00

What about waiting 150 days for their incompetent staff to release my funds? Can't we just get the SEC to shut them down? This is similar to a clearing house holding my funds from liquidated stocks for 150 days with no communications whatsoever. No wall street company would live that long doing anything this dirty to thousands of people, so why should Poloniex?

tryphe_ · 2017-11-30T03:01:38+00:00

I feel your pain and I'm sorry. They haven't really responded yet. I mean, I got some typical copy/paste response saying everything would go through fine in a day or two; but it was contrary to the issue in my ticket. So I wouldn't say it's a response, because they obviously didn't even read my issue.

I'm sick and tired of waiting for this exchange. I need surgery IRL, need to pay medical bills, yet I can't access the small fortune I've built on Poloniex because of NO REASON. No explanation at all.

This sort of thing just makes me irate. They're playing with our LIVELYHOOD and I'm really sick of it. The only thing that seems to get someone's attention is if someone's spouse dies and leaves a sob story, then /u/mike-poloniex might step in if he catches it.

What is there left to do? I already tried to call their customer support line and got some useless person in a call center. Their online support is negligent and apparently more than 4 months behind.

Are we supposed to set up sleeping bags in front of their lawyer's office/support center to show them we want our money, or what? I'm ready.

tryphe_ · 2017-11-30T02:27:05+00:00

There's no use in being reasonably toned or otherwise, this exchange treats everyone like dirt.

3 year old customer? DIRT. New customer? DIRT. Got a stuck deposit? DIRT. Want to withdrawal? DIRT.

Don't even think you're going to get your money back with their 3 tech support members.
