Honestly, I don't know why you're laughing. I also read the news exchange, today's the day of judgment:)
I waited so long for the moment when the KYC procedure will be canceled, but today it did not happen, maybe tomorrow?
News is still no, we will wait, maybe tomorrow something will be announced? I have accumulated a lot of coins that I would like to sell on this exchange.
I want to note that today on August 22, I do not see any changes. We are waiting for explanations from the exchange administration.
One good thing about bitebtc support is they are responsive on emails. Of course some are automated replies, but if you try sending them a personalized email with your query, they'll respond. Not saying you will get a favorable reply, but at least they'll look into it and reply. I tried doing in some exchanges, they wont't even reply to a simple question.
Going back to verifications of account, many are still waiting for it, but to mind its just two days past their announced date of August 21
I would still give them a couple of days, say a week to approve applications.
I may say, bitebtc is relatively thorough (and slow) in verifyng accounts. I really hope this next few days my account and yours will be approved. All the best!
