I checked their website they have post news about the procedure that's happening to their investigation I think all of your questions will be answered there
Didn't you see that someone has already posted the procedure about that above you?
The requirements are very strict for users to get back their money.

No exact date has already published before and almost a half of the month and there's no update regarding when will be the date for the users can start to complete the procedure to make sure they can get back their money from there.

This might be old but in regards about updates on this Cryptopia issue then the best place to look for is into their social media platforms.

https://twitter.com/Cryptopia_NZ
https://www.facebook.com/cryptopiaexchange/

They do at least have some progress about the case.

Cryptopia won't come again, forget it and move on. Last year they had several hack attacks, Cryptopia wasn't a big exchange so they couldn't make it recover! Every exchange is not funded like Binance, that's why crypto expert always suggests to not hold any coin in exchange, but a hardware wallet and withdraw your funds from exchanges, that's the safest way among all.
We just hope that there will not be  another Cryptopia, now that we have a lot of exchange that we can choose from and it's now on how we choose the right exchange, it's better to only trade on the top exchange in the industry, because they have a reputation to protect and they likely not to get hacked because they have the best security.

Agree. I was a user myself for a while, back when they were doing well, especially for a lot of those weird POS coins. I got out before they had problems but ended up losing most of my coins anyway when their wallets went dead and blockchains no longer managed.

I think the era of exchanges being managed by a few individuals is over,,, only a big corporate firm like binance can do CEXs.

ouch that still suck lea but still good because you withdraw before the hackings begun , its like you predicted the hacking it self lol  but you said you lost most of them which means you still managed to sell your other coins for some price  ?  still okay if i were to ask  .

 managing your own exchange by yourself alone is hard but its a good idea to hire some workers or personel to help you do the job  but if its only small then why not ? but exchange like cryptopia isnt really small because they are already making a name back then

First rule when Investing in crypto is never to invest what you can't afford to lose, the second rule is never to leave your coins or tokens on any exchange because they can stop working any time

Grant Thornton, the firm liquidating hacked New Zealand cryptocurrency exchange Cryptopia, has discussed how best to do so with the platform’s developers.

Grant Thorton aims for “collaborative relationship”
According to a leaked email from Grant Thornton originally dated Sept. 23, its executives planned to conduct an online meeting with the developers on Oct. 7. The email reads:

“Given the scale, complexity and unique nature of the Cryptopia situation it is desirable to develop a collaborative relationship with the developer community.”

The move marks the latest step in reimbursing the exchange’s clients, who lost about $4.2 million in total after the hack last January.

In August, preparations were already underway to determine wallet ownership, with the liquidation process facing various hurdles nonetheless.

“A positive message”
According to Grant Thornton, Tuesday’s meeting aimed to explain the liquidation process to the developers and ask for their assistance going forward. The email continues:

“We believe engagement is a vital element to the overall success of the liquidation and a positive message for the crypto community at large.”

I also have some bitcoin and altcoins in Cryptopia but i think this is already close so then our investment there gone because of that scam

Then i learn a lot by this mistake like i move my btc,alts and tokens to hardwallet and trusted wallet already now then some trading site that trusted and popular are still better to use for me but don't give your 100%
As far as I know, there’s no new announcement about this exchange. I have also heard from a friend that his funds cannot retrieve it yet, it was gone indeed. Even they have planned to come back I don’t have a confidence in this exchange anymore. Better we must use exchange with good feedback and a reputable one.

So disappointing to hear that cryptopia wasn't able to recover what has been lost on their side. They're not taking liability for the problems happening on their exchange. Luckily I didn't store my funds on them, and if happens a mistake entrusting my asset with their custody, probably I would tend to be hopeless just like the others whose still complaining on their welfare.

As i was checking in cryptopia website they announced august 20 about  some status about investigation . There is no major concern about investors . I was holding good amount of Crytpo currency in that wallet still i am not sure about i will get my fund back . Any updates can i get my fund back

I would strongly suggest that you just forget about the coins that you lost on Cryptopia.

Even a once dominant exchange like Mt Gox essentially was not capable of refunding anyone to this day, let alone some obscure exchange located in NZ. All of the investigations will probably eventually amount to absolutely nothing, and odds are stacked against balance holders on the site.

And even if there were any updates, it probably wouldn't help at all. Owners have moved onto a new project IIRC and I would be surprised with that new exchange project they'll focus any more energy onto solving this current debacle with Cryptopia.

the update is the same as all those places that get hacked  "They are working with police and yada yada blah blah" our coins are gone.
Sad  no recovery from a hacker in crypto, they cant pay people back, plain and simple
no new updates ive seen, just watch the twitter and such for any changes in next few months, but dont expect much imo

That's why it's best for people to move on since provably there money will not be back since I don't think cryptopia will pay off after there incident, and I truly believe that there's shady happening on there site so no wonder maybe this is there escape plan so that they could delay all things and suddenly execute there smooth exit.

Cryptopia does not reveal how much funds have been hacked is there any clarification from the team about it? whereas cryptopia is a popular exchange, I also got a big profit when trading in Cryptopia.

Coinexchange is also the same as this closing is very surprising for traders whether this year is so difficult for the Coinexchange exchange.
There's none. Cryptopia already gave their last announcement and so far there's no new announcement regarding the investigation..

I'm surpriced when i know this, i trade a lot in cryptopia couple months ago and it runs well.
Also another big exchange like coinexchange are closing down, what happened to crypto trading nowdays ?
In cryptopia they say that exchange has been hacked many crypto currency has been stolen and that was they said. but we dont know what really happen on that exchange, no more update given after august 21.
In coinexchange they plan to shut it down in december if im not mistaken but all users are able to widraw the balance they have  before the exchange will close.

You will get your money back but im not sure if that will happen in short time.
You can read the latest announcement that has already made by cryptopia a few months ago.
https://www.grantthornton.co.nz/update-for-cryptopia-account-holders-20-august-2019/

Cryptopia will be implementing KYC verification for any accounts that already registered in the cryptopia in the future and to able get your money back and you must complete all of the verifications but it's too risky to do that consider cryptopia was not a safe site again. It has a lot of chance for your identity to be leaked in the future.
This is bad move from cryptopia, many people including myself use that exchange for only two reasons..
1. Huge lists of supported altcoins
2. No KYC
Now i don't think that i can trust the exchange anymore, why implement KYC now for users to get their funds back? nice move cryptopia, nice move. I am glad i don't have any coins and tokens on the exchange and i am sure that this will serve as a big lesson to others who loves treating exchanges like their personal wallets

Gladly I've pulled out all those tokens I've been holding at cryptopia last 2018 and then transferred it to my external wallet. As this issue arose so badly, I don't think those funds lost had no chance to be recovered in a short period of time. There are rumors I heard that it was an inside job from the administrator who handled the privacy of each and every holding. Hopefully, it wasn't a serious accusation because that was so disappointing if proven.

Its really   painful for your  lost  asset  but i will say  be patient a bit.  The  fact  that  the exchange is still live mean they  are going to reimburse the users who lost  their assets.  i read some of  their  update few days ago which  was about how they  can reimburse people..  just  keep  holding your faith.  surely they  will reimburse you someday  ..
What does mean, the exchange is still live?
From all the news available, it is clear that the liquidators just saved the Cryptopia database in a safe place. There is still a long way to go: check all the data, KYC for everyone. But this is not at all like a live exchange.

No updates about it. Address your concerns here in this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cryptopia-cryptocurrency-platform-services-and-development-1669443
You are not the only one who has coin in there, I also have a bit of altcoins in the exchange but I have no intention to get it from them. Liquidators are not even updating anyone, the announcement in the index page could just mean say good bye to your coins.

There is news about this from them, but it is just a progress about the meeting and some of the stuff. They did not say anything about the method of the refund though.
here is the latest news about them and the leaked email:

Let's wait until further information from the liquidator and the others, I believe they will reimburse their costumer.

Move this to Exchanges board You can see that option below.



I have little funds there and I no longer expect that I can still recover it. In your case, I'm afraid that you just have to wait for another official announcement. Liquidation usually takes a long time and the manual reconciliation of accounts adds to the delay.

Best of luck with your funds mate.
