Though this may require some work, I think having tradable fees/shares of poloniex would be preferable, the shares would give dividends (like cryptsy, mcxnow, etc.), and the selling of those shares would help cover the deficit.


You mean he should Gox his users? Seriously...

If only 12.3 % were stolen, I'd rather have him not say anything for now and not cause everybody to try to withdraw.

I was on the trollbox when busoni announced. He will be updating here shortly. 12.3% of BTC was stolen.

We all have to fight off the Fog of War. In that light, I would like to suggest temporary across-the-board withdrawal fee increases to cover losses until the deficit is satisfied. This way, there wont be a big run on BTC there, and converting to other coinage bears the same fee. Keep calm and choo-choo on. These are growing pains for a great exchange.

If things aren't clear, I prefer the news to stay unclear. No point in given clear-looking news ala MtGox when you don't have definite answers.

poloniex volume had been going up significantly, but i wonder how much of the deposits where in btc (rather than altcoins), though I guess all buy orders were susceptible (being still in btc).

12.3% of btc was stolen.  No other coins.  It's apparently fixed now.  Busoni is writing up a post atm.

Busoni said he is writing a bitcointalk post atthis very moment.

Please give the man some time... Imagine the stress/pressure he is under right now. Lots of things to deal with at once (analysing the situation, providing information, working out a solution)

Can somebody give a short summary of what was being said in the trollbox? They really should tweet their info or post it here and not chat in the trollbox.
Also "Some btc stolen" is just a terribly scary bit of information. They should be more reassuring, even if there is no reason to be.

please add realstackcoin on poloniex

Hence was born: The RealStackcoin


This.. is a reverse-scam coin.. an anti-scam coin.  We took a scam, and turned it upside down.

ps: we will keep support you poloniex, although we may lost some btc!

I believe you mean completely incompetent and not providing a TXID to show the theft....

ANOTHER INSECURE EXCHANGE - DO NOT KEEP COINS ON THESE NEW, UNPROVEN EXCHANGES

12,3% of BTC where just stolen from this exchange, markets are frozen at the moment.

Busoni is very active and transparent about the situation in trollbox, and busy working it out. Good luck!

I would love to have a chart that goes back a little longer as well. It is a better way to spot trends in coins than just a 4-day chart. Charts going back 1 and 3 months would be a really nice addition to start with. Having a 'all data' graph would be great, but I have seen on other sites this can become quite slow. So maybe an all data graph that only loads like 1 datapoint per day or so? But that would probably cost you a lot of programming time 

please add coin2, the most fair distribution coin ever！

So what are you looking for, a candlestick chart that goes back to the beginning of a coin's history, or a way to track your own personal trades? It would be kind of cool to have little annotations on the candlestick indicating where you bought and sold...

Hi everyone,

First of all, about recent load issues. I designed the software with expandability and potential for load balancing in mind--it is not hard to spread the database across multiple servers. I didn't expect to have to do it so soon, though, and I expected a little more warning--Poloniex is growing at an insane rate. That's why there have been these periods where things get overwhelmed. Everything looks fine, then all of a sudden there is a sustained 3x boost in traffic.

I'm going to be adding more servers this week, and I will try to keep a much larger margin to allow for sudden massive increases in activity.

The forced login to view the exchange page was a temporary measure to control the load. Things are now back to the way they were.

One more thing--about security. Very few Poloniex accounts have been hacked--less than five, I think--but I still think reminders like this don't hurt. I know long, random passwords are inconvenient. I know 2FA is inconvenient. But you really have to take the things that everyone says about basic security seriously. NEVER use the same password on an exchange that you use ANYWHERE else, especially on a smaller, unproven exchange. Use a password generator to get a 40+ character random password, then log in with a password manager like 1password. (And back up your keychain!)

But that isn't all. Remember that no matter how strong your password is, anyone who hacks your email account can change it--UNLESS YOU USE 2FA.

This is money we're talking about, which means people will always be trying to steal it. Unless you know you can afford to lose what you have on account, use a strong password and 2FA!
