Hello All,

I was thinking about the coins killed by the ugly death of Cryptsy.  Many of us were left holding coins that suddenly had no value and no other exchanges with the developers walking away.  Currently some people are looking to bring back some of these coins, one being Flappy Coin has come back.  What I am curious about is what other coins would people like to see come back from the dead?

Cheers,
Waya 


Hi, I understand that this is a very old topic, but I am really interested. Could someone give me a few examples of coins killed by Cryptsy? Help is much appreciated!

I had lost several smaller coins myself (CLAMS, Joule, etc..) and always wondered if there was actually a record of some of these captured before Cryptsy was finally offline?  Being more a "dabbler" at the time I did not keep my own records ... but should have. 

if you ask around a lot of people took screenshots and made other records

i liked the layout because you could turn off whatever you wanted and only see the markets of your choice, that made it a lot faster when only loading what you cared about

This is a great thread! Especially for those of us who lived the cryptsy, and mintpal, and gox, and... disasters as someone said before. Too many projects went away before they even had a chance to get going leaving many "holding the bag". I personally took some SERIOUS losses with many disreputable exchanges, and now we have CoinsMarket. I'd like to think we aren't seeing a repeat of events, only time will tell. But for those new or newer even to crypto the safest place for your coins is in YOUR wallets. Only put what you need to trade on the exchanges, THEY ARE NOT BANKS! I hope to see more like this in near future, gives me warm and and fuzzy feeling.  Cool

I guess there are coins which have been killed also by other exchange fails, like Mintpal, Allcrypt etc. Would be nice to discover which they are.

Hoboknickles I kind of liked back in the day I think its still on a exchange somewhere and klondike coin i also liked, I saw somewhere a while back you can claim certain coins from cryptsy for those who got screwed when they shut down.

Hobonickles was big thing back then Grin. Add RDD to the list as well. It died quickly as soon as cryptsy died. I'm one of the lucky individuals who didn't keep my alts on their website. I wonder how many people received something from lawsuit they filed or if it's still going on.

I recieved an email recently stating a class action suit is still in progress for all cryptsy members who lost coins.

This was a follow up from another one i recived quiet some time ago

now that that seems to be walking on its own again were ready for the next


You need to be commended for your efforts.  People like you and your tem deserve credit for working on these coins to bring them back to life.  It amazes me how people can band together and decide to works towards a goal of making a dead coin come back to life.  I have had the pleasure of doing this on Flappy Coin and it was and still is a wonderful project.  I ask all those who would like to see a coin come back to life to seek others and make it happen.  No need for a good coin to lay dead while tons of shit coins abound.

This topic is so much in demand and it is interesting not only for you.

Those who started from the very beginning and came across Cripsy, they are interested in the death of the coins resurrected.
But to my great regret, not everything will be as we need or want. And if nevertheless someone left the dead coins on the account, then I advise them to leave. Sometimes this can be a surprise when suddenly you go in and they are activated.

Well, they do not occupy a place, and yet this is our money. So I left it. And what will happen in the future?

Why people want to bring the dead coin back?
I am just wondering

I can't answer for anyone other than myself.  One reason is that there can be people holding coins and want the coin brought back, the blockchain restored, the community developed, and the coin listed on an exchange.  For me Flappy Coin was one such coin.  I remember with fondness the Flappy Bird game. 

Just issue a flappycoin erc20 token and airdrop it  Cheesy

I see what you're saying but there's so many new coins now, and the market is so diluted, that I think these dead coins aren't coming back.

The funny thing I remember about cryptsy is they had a feature where you could buy a set amount of every coin on the exchange all at the same time. So you could click once, buy a few dollars worth each of hundreds of different coins, and create your own cryptsy mutual fund of shitcoins.  Memories...  Wink

I made this thread, to see what other coins people would like to see come back.  There are so many shit coins out there and some of the coins that have died have so much great potential if people were to reclaim them and invest in them to bring them back to life.

For people who don't know Cryptsy, It was the biggest exchange of it's day. At that time Bittrex was tiny.  Like many of you new people I thought my coins were safe because I had a good password and  two factor authentication. But nothing can protect your funds from an exchange owner who sees so much money in his exchange that he figures he can make a runner to Thailand or somewhere and live on the beach forever. And Cryptsy wasn't an exception. I remember Mt. Gox, Cryptorush, Mintpal, Maxx etc. It will happen again. Please use the new hardware wallets, they are cheap compared to your capital and work great.

Their front-end design was slow, clumsy and a waste of time compared to btc-e.com, but Cryptsy was fun for trading many different coins in one place.
