Yes, not to worry. Crypsy has done myself and all others well. Sudden massive growing pains but already their shaking the bugs out of the new interface rather quickly all things considered.
Usually deposits and withdrawals are swift and trouble free. Occasional delays but rarely in my case, except for TODAY! And that's after dozens of deposits and many more withdrawals than deposits over the last few months. And I sometimes take up to a week to even fire up the Qt wallet to receive the data on the withdrawals. I grown to trust Crypsty to say the least.
So rest easy about that. Out of all the Exchanges I selected what I think is the best and safest one. But do your own due diligence. Trust no one any more than you must, and always verify everything possible!
And don't plan to leave funds at any exchange or online wallet for any longer than you must do so. Sure enough to place your trades when the price is best, but plan to isolate a PC and make sure it's got a new, clean install of Windows or whatever, and that it's only used for Online Banking and your Qt wallets. Nothing else. Keep it patched, updated, and make certain your firewall and anti-virus is top notch. Windows firewall is fine as long as you surf no where else.
Install Firefox with Noscript and get used to not allowing any java-scripting anywhere except when you must. And don't bother with installing Java either unless you must have it for other trading elsewhere, and if so absolutely keep it up to date ... Be certain to keep all 3rd party apps and programs updated in timely fashion as well as keep windows updated at all times too. Run an extremely secure, isolated PC just for the Crypto Wallets and online banking only. Another PC for just Trading Online and it's associated needs, nothing else. And a third PC for everything else. All isolated from each other (no network). If your going to risk much then take the security measures needed to secure those assets. And if only dabbling you still much be concious of the risks or the losses could be substancial. And never leave idle funds in any online wallets. Don't trust anyone any more than absolutely required.
Of course being a power user I secure the heck out of my trading pc and my wallet pc, but at any rate I haven't suffered any losses either.
Watch out for old or rouge Qt Clients, the former can cause a lot of headache and the latter can steal your wallet as well as capture your password too. And make certain your downloading from the correct sites. Also seriously consider learning how to secure the heck out your own PC's if you don't already know the drills there.
Caveat emptor - let the buyer beware!
Hello Slingshot,
thank you very much for your reply.
I am worried because I have already lost money in e-gold, stormpay, liberty reserve, and some offshore forex trading brokers ... thats why I am little bit skeptic to new businesses and new websites who work with money. But as I see there is no problem with them and I have already made a deposit, unfortunately it has few hours delay (1st one is done, 2nd is pending) but I hope it will be credited to my account soon.
I also have sms authentication and I try to make all I can to secure my wallet, my pc and other things to avoid scam but thank you very much for your advices
Wish you all good luck
