Bankera’s Roadmap: What Comes Next - https://blog.bankera.com/2018/03/02/bankeras-roadmap-what-comes-next/ (for the full post and roadmap)

"The first partnership we announced was with the HitBTC exchange, on which our contributors will be able to begin trading BNK tokens in the second quarter. On HitBTC, BNK will be issued on the Ethereum blockchain as ERC20 tokens and will be paired with ETH and BTC. While our team does not rule out listing on other trading platforms, Bankera’s own exchange platform is currently in development and is being improved according to our community’s feedback. - also in: https://blog.bankera.com/2018/02/21/listing-bankeras-tokens-bnks-will-be-available-at-hitbtc/

Even though our official plan set on the roadmap is to develop an Exchange in the first half of 2018, we hope to develop the working product before the set deadline.

Additionally, new virtual cards will be launched this first quarter through SpectroCoin and, a bit later, plastic cards will be issued to previous cardholders. On our blog post about the new cards you can find the list of countries in which they will be available and the issuance sequence.

Bankera’s website is being updated to reflect this new phase and it will soon be available in more languages, in addition to English."

Your email is your access to your account, where you keep money at. Therefore, you must make sure you are using a reliable and long-term service, not an email that expires after certain days/weeks/months. Many users do not even have verified accounts, so how SpectroCoin team be 1000% sure that it is you contacting them for a change?
In this situation, your email and personal data are the proof that you are the true owner of the account. It cannot be changed, because that would eliminate the whole purpose of it. It is the same as if you walk into a bank, present no identity confirmation and demand that they transfer funds from one account to another.
You are fully responsible for the provided information and the safety of your credentials.

People can lose access to their email for various reasons other than the email provider disappearing. There should be a mechanism in place that lets a user prove that they're the legitimate account owner. A hard to guess recovery phrase given to a user that cannot be viewed or changed afterwards would take care of many instances where access to signup email address has been lost and save you from the headache of figuring out who's "email gone, halp!" story is legit and who's isn't.



On SpectroCoin, when you input/update your personal information, you must also set the secret question and answer - which you cannot change. Many people do not take that step.

There's a lot of a question to the project. We collected a fairly large amount. What are the next steps? When does the project launch? Indeed there will be a listing for the HitBTC?

When will be launch of Bankera exchange? As far as I know, Uservice token is gonna be listed on your exchange and they promised to be  in conditions
for trading by the end of this month. On the other hand, on your web site stated, that only in 2 quarter of 2018 year you will launch exchange

They promised to list bankera tokens on HITBTC but there are no news about that. Keeping tokens only on their exchange will mean huge price manipulation possibility and will look like masked ponzi scheme similar to bitconnect with only one difference; Bitconnect was paying 1 % per day and bankera is paying almost nothing every week. Like this that ponzi can run up to 10 years or more.   

They ran away.

Even if they have, there are ways to deal with it. They said I should set up a new account with a different email address and then transfer the assets over. I can't do the second part due to email confirm requirements, but I already took care of the first part. They would need some way to prove that I own both accounts so that they can make the transfer on their end and feel confident that no one is getting scammed. I suggested they make a small deposit of some currency into each account and then have me tell support what it is. That I can do since I'm still able to log into the original account and the new account. Funny thing is that banks do that sort of thing all the time to double check that you actually own the bank account you are trying to link to whatever third party service it is.

It comes down to proving that you have *legit* access to the original account. A hacker could take over somebody else's account and insist it's theirs. Telling Bankera what amount was deposited to each account wouldn't prove you're not up to something nefarious.

I just twhtted on SpectroCoin: I'm concerned, just as some other members of the SpectroCoin community, that a wallet email cannot be changed & users who loose access to their email equally loose access to their funds on SpectroCoin. Lost access shouldn't mean lost funds. #MakeUserEmailChangableOnSpectrocoin

Trust me, SpectroCoin support and I are on a first name basis! I'm currently being told there is nothing they can do, which I consider to be garbage. There are *always* options. Cryptopia, where I have the same problem, just last night changed my account profile email address based on account information I'd provided them. I will keep bugging SpectroCoin. They have no right to hold my funds hostage.

I hope they haven't made some terribly stupid design mistake where the user id in their database is somehow linked to or derived from user's email address. Otherwise it's just a matter of getting ahold of the right person. Keep the pressure on them until the problem is kicked to someone who isn't a low level support grunt.

Even if they have, there are ways to deal with it. They said I should set up a new account with a different email address and then transfer the assets over. I can't do the second part due to email confirm requirements, but I already took care of the first part.

Funny thing is that banks do that sort of thing all the time to double check that you actually own the bank account you are trying to link to whatever third party service it is.

Yes, I am going to keep bugging them about this until I regain access to my funds. There simply has to be a way to make it work for everyone. Thanks for the support.

I think this is an issue we as a community should press down on spectroCoin for a  change. Cyptocurrency services operators such as SpectroCoin should find a fair balance between their corporate policies on security and customer convinience and satisfaction. We should pressure SpectroCoin for a change. This is also one way through which the community could define standards and self-regulate the industry.

I would definitely appreciate any help and support anyone here wants to offer. I think there should always be a way to change emails or recover accounts where email access was lost, because it does happen sometimes.

I think we should all head to SpectroCoin's official Twitter and Facebook pages. There we can en mass convince SpectroCoin to do something about this.

I need to warn people. You cannot change your SpectroCoin profile email address! So what happens if you lose access to your email address? The answer is you just lost all the funds in your account.

I'm learning this lesson the hard way, but never, ever register on any cryptocurrency related service with an email address that might expire or for any other reason not be there in a year or next month. YOU CANNOT CHANGE IT. Your profile email address is your permanent identity.

On SpectroCoin, you can create a new account and transfer all assets to the new account. If you have any doubts about the email address you currently use in your profile, then do it now. Use a gmail address to register an account, or some other email provider that is too big to fail. Make the change while you still have access to the old email address. Because once you lose access to it, you will no longer be able to confirm withdrawals and that's it. Bye bye funds!

SpectroCoin is not alone. Poloniex says they can't change profile email addresses either. Cryptopia for practical purposes (because they do not respond to support tickets) can't either. BitTrex has a process you can go through to change your email address (and I did this successfully) but it's not automatic. Coinbase does allow you to change your profile email address automatically, but they seem to be the exception.

When it comes to cryptocurrency related services, your profile email address is your permanent identity. So make sure your email address is also permanent!

If you have problems with your current email, you must contact SpectroCoin support. There is a security procedure to be followed in such situation and they can inform you better in case this happens.

Trust me, SpectroCoin support and I are on a first name basis! I'm currently being told there is nothing they can do, which I consider to be garbage. There are *always* options.
