Hello community,

This thread is for victims who've suffered at the hands of Bittrex and Poloniex for not only delisting Boolberry without explanation but more importantly for not allowing users to withdraw their funds. The first step here is to get a total amount of coins frozen on each exchange then afterwards pursue legal action against them to release holders' funds. There is also the possibility of seeking additional damages for pain and suffering caused by inability to access your own funds. Some holders in the Boolberry community have had withdrawal tickets open for almost a year now with no response from Poloniex. In addition, the liability of market manipulation for unexpectedly delisting the project without any explanation.

For those unaware, Boolberry was trading consistently with decent volume on Poloniex and Bittrex in the ranges between 100BTC and 2000BTC before delisting announcement occurred and crashed the market. So market liquidity is was not an issue for the delisting. There is also evidence of major sell offs (flash dumps) that happened about a week prior to the delisting announcement. While I'm not an attorney, I know from other cases that if proven that the sell off was from the exchanges that would also be considered a criminal offense (market manipulation) for knowingly taking advantage of buy support and the impact a delisting notice would have on the market.

=========================

If you have funds frozen on Poloniex and Bittrex please provide screenshot if possible of the amount frozen along with total amount in text. Once we have a full tally of coins frozen there we can then refer this thread to legal counsel where they can privately collect claim information from each victim. Unlike the Mt. Gox claim (https://www.mtgoxlegal.com/) both exchanges are still operational and have not declared bankruptcy yet.

Lastly, if you have funds frozen from other cryptocurrency projects or have suffered financial losses at the hands of unexpected and unwarranted delisting from either exchange I would suggest you start a thread for your currency's community.

Bittrex and Poloniex require transparency from their users to trade but do not provide any transparency to traders for their actions.
