If the site is under DDOS he is not going to correct anything , its not a bug , its massive spam of requests to the server .

And i don't know if DDOS protection softs exist

Received my bitcoins. Thanks Busoni. I really was hoping it wasn't a scam. You know how it is with this. This is the wild west of the internet and people make off with money every day. So no harm done. I will continue to trade on poloniex.

Uy. I guess I won't go another day without checking this thread.

I have been very busy answering tickets and resolving issues. There are still a few open with missing withdrawals, and I'm getting to them as fast as I can.

As I said, if you send too many transactions in too short a space of time, something goes wrong and the transactions are invalid. I did not know how many were invalid, though, because they all got txids. Yesterday, thinking I had resent most of the missing withdrawals, I spent several hours getting the trading API finished, as people have been asking about that a lot.

Then I come back to support and see loads and loads of tickets and emails. Now, I understand your coins are missing, and it isn't your fault... but when you submit several tickets and send the same request to the email address, you slow things down. Really. I have to check each one and find it's a duplicate. I estimate I could have taken care of literally twice the number of tickets if people had only submitted one for each problem.

At first, there were only a few complaints of unconfirmed withdrawals, and I didn't know why. I wanted to give them a bit of time before resending, because the Bitcoin client will keep trying to submit transactions that aren't getting confirmations, and I didn't want withdrawals to be sent twice. This is what caused the initial delay.

I spent a good portion of this evening setting the wallet in order (deleting all transactions and rescanning) and resigning the withdrawal daemon to used "sendmany" instead of "sendtoaddress". I will now see if I can finish up with the tickets related to missing withdrawals.

About the XCP issues, I will post here about it if people want. All the communication has so far been done in the Counterparty thread. Some quick facts (which have been posted there):

Total missing BTC: 120. Missing BTC will be paid off as funds are raised from community donations and the 2.5% trading fee on the BTC/XCP market. Additionally, the developers made a sizable donation, and I will be contributing some of my own funds.

I imagine I have missed a lot over in the Counterparty thread, so I will check back here after I've caught up over there.

If anyone still has questions, please ask--but please do not ask for technical support here.

I am glad you find the issue and has been addressed, keep it good and going...

I've had nothing but good customer support from Poloniex, the owner personally helped me retrieve .6 BTC I had accidentally deposited in my premise account. Meanwhile support from the exchange I had sent it from said I was on my own.

yeah, you are right, perhaps was he a legit person, but look this thread, here are a few people complaining about there withdraws not complete(and i guess not everyone who is missing will post in here), but the only answer from admin was "send me a ticket i will fix it" ... since than noting, no answers to tickets, no withdraw of my btc, no answer to pms, no answers in this thread here - yes you can check that!!!

he WAS legit ! he is not anymore !

he is clearly a scammer for now!

so if the site has a problem for a few hours he is considered to be a scammer immediately? Give it some time.

Few hours? The problem happened days ago, and it is still unclear how the attack is getting reconciled. We've heard anywhere from 50 to 150 bitcoins were lost.

Since nothing has been said, I don't really think anyone speculating is wrong, just worthless. It is up to the site owner to have proper customer support and PR, and not spend time adding more shitcoins instead of drafting a note saying how the exploit to counterparty is being handled.

So while "scammer" is not the term i'd immediately use, I'd say that not addressing any details about the missing coins, who it did/didn't effect and why, and how it is being handled rather than dropping arbitrary, crippling fees on XCP on the exchange is not a good thing.

If the issue was a double spend of XCP to take bitcoins, the site is in bitcoin deficit, and if everyone were to try and remove their bitcoins (making a bank run) at some point it would simply fail.

So much stinks about the "official story" the portion of people trying to withdraw BTC and it happening slowly is a bit of a joke compared to those who outwardly lost a lot. So that's why you're being met with scorn, it isn't unwarranted on either side of the argument.

Can anyone point to the proof of a doublespend in the bitcoin blockchain, since it should permanently be visible there, yes?
