Crypsty has issues, but nothing that requires running to the Gov't. They are (until proven otherwise) a top-tier exchange and one of the only ones where your funds are probably safe, compared to ~98% of the other options.

Really ? These people do not give a flying fuck about us.

If this is allowed to happen, what else will we learn if/when they get audited ?

Whoa, Crypsty is in here? Can I ask where the hell my NXT withdrawal is? Nobody is answering my support ticket and it's been 4 days. I kinda think maybe--just maybe--someone at Crypsty should be at least decent enough to answer me. I mean, if you can get on Twitter and on the forums can't you answer support tickets? I'm mad as hell about this.

I had a withdraw issue like this once... couldn't sent it from exchange to exchange.. it was back in my account after several days.

Also you do have to verfiy your withdraws now so if you never verified.. it's just sitting there doing nothing.

A lot of companies do not reply to things that are in the FAQ's..

Thanks for your answer Spazzdia, but it's not that. I answered the verification email. It just never got to my wallet. They are looking into it now and hopefully I'll get the NXT soon.

I had to reset my password to enable 2FA today, and when I tried to withdraw the funds I'd sent via block #309615, the transaction never confirmed and just stayed at "pending" - despite the fact that it had only been 14 blocks since my deposit. I contacted Cryptsy support to find that they locked my account for 24 hours due to the password change, despite the fact that nowhere on the site does it say this is the site policy.

I offered to supply all the necessary documentation required to prove my identity, but all I received was a curt "sorry, there's nothing we can do."

In a post-Gox world, you'd better do a hell of a lot more than that to prove your solvency. So I also filed a report with the Florida attorney general's office because fuck this shit, I am not playing cute little games with these exchanges anymore.

A 24 hour password reset freeze is a good security measure. We are not the only exchange to employ it. Not sure what that has to do with this thread anyhow. Let me get this straight you are "filing a complaint" because we locked your funds for 24 hours for diligence? My bank once held funds for 45 days..... Best of luck to you.

The problem occurs when the first mention of it is in the fine print of the reset email rather than literally anywhere else on the actual website. Clear communication is and will always be a leading practice in business.

For example, saying "there's nothing we can do because we think you're a hacker" conveys a different message than "sorry, there's nothing we can do because our automated system server-side encrypts your wallet's private key when you change your password"...

Don't underestimate your customer base. We use cryptocurrencies because we like the long-winded, technical explanation.

To me it's all the small things adding up.

The hallmark of reliable software is that it's repetitive...
It works the same way every time you use it.

Here... sometimes things update... sometimes not...
You get randomly kicked out... sometimes not...
It's as if FOR A JOKE they run everything off an RNG.

So people end up loading your servers with BILLIONS of page refresh requests.

Also, the orders are broken up into 100 dust fills...
NO ONE ON EARTH WANTS TO SEE...
That your order for 100 coins was filled in 27 partials...
You just want to see the TOTAL that was filled.

It's as if the people that designed the site have never actually used it to trade alts...

Here's the url for the Cryptsy Devs so you can take it for a test drive:

https://www.cryptsy.com

And today the "Reports" are not working...
Why bother having such a nice feature... when it works on a random basis?

go figure~because the site was created as a way for Paul and co to dump their premined clone coins ...it's totally unprofessional =\

Not sure if anyone cares, but the picture they show on their website https://www.cryptsy.com/pages/about of their building is not where their listed address is.

160 Congress Park Dr Suite 101
Delray Beach, FL 33445

is about a mile away in a small new 2 story building. It doesnt show their name anywhere on the suite number nor on the directory. No way to know for sure if they are at that 160 Congress address, but its definitely possible.

The building they show on their website can be seen on google street view at:

https://www.google.com/maps/@26.477342,-80.090172,3a,37.5y,58.94h,82.59t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1s_RZ9N7f4SUn4mNj78aCXag!2e0

Seems shady to me to show a building that isnt where they reside. Maybe they were there before, and never changed out the picture. Its not a stock picture, since it is a building nearby in Delray Beach.

I live very close to the area. I decided to visit both buildings a couple days ago just out of curiosity.

We moved offices about 2 months ago after running out of space. Perhaps we should update the picture

Why do you want to blatantly lie? The office building in the original pics is in fact real but you failed to mention it was just a postal drop and a virtual office only. There was never any real business for Cryptsy ever conducted at that location. Until just two months ago, Cryptsy was a virtual operation run from people's homes and public wifi connections. For crying out load, if you will search this forum hard enough you will learn that "BitJohn" was actually deployed with the US Army handling customer service from overseas during Cryptsy's first year.

As far as Ipcoinz a newbie less than 30 days old trying to pretend Florida wants cryptocurrency, Florida is hands down the most agressive anti crypto state in the USA. Try selling Bitcoin in Miami or just Google it. Try emailing any local agency or politician and getting a favorable response.

While it has been about two months since I last spoke the to the Florida AG office, they indicated they are actively investigating quite a few claims against a variety of crypto businesses, Cryptsy included. The investigator I am dealing with said this year there will be legislation brought forward to really clamp down and empower local DA's to effectively control this technology. IPcoinz needs to go day dream in another state.

Cryptsy is a rogue operation that engages in proven outright market manipulation, insider trading and other scams to rip people off. Sooner or later Paul Vernon is going to jail. He is nothing other than a "Mini Karperles".

This is not true. Please stop spreading FUD.

I visited the office in question for 1 week in early march to accept a job offer that would require me to move to Delray from Minnesota. I worked in that office for that week with the other 8 employees we had at the time.

I moved to delray on March 31st and started my new position. I work at the new office 5 days a week. They moved to the new office about a week before I moved here. We have 15 Employees working at the new office.

I dont know where you think you are getting your information but it is 100% false.

Bitjohn is in fact a remote employee but that is about the only guess you got correct. I also was a remote employee until March 31st. If anyone cares to stop by the new location let me know. I would be happy to speak with Paul about getting you a tour

I see that my post from the other thread about the office photo got noticed here. I was following that thread but didnt know about this one, until I just stumbled on it. I simply went to go find the office since its in my neighborhood and recognized the "old" building from memory as its on a major road.

I live in the area, and would be happy to take you up on your offer and visit your new office. I can go as a neutral party. Full Disclosure: I used cryptsy a few months ago, but do not have any funds/alts on it currently.

Also, it's getting to the point that the withdrawal and deposit issues can be predicted. Anytime any coin has a sudden surge on the market and there is potential to make a huge windfall, you can count on wallet issues so Cryptsy can sell on the other exchanges, wait for a return to or below normal, buy back and "suddenly fix" the wallets pretending it was just a glitch. It has happened about 25 times too many to be coincidence. Anyone else see this?

i can confirm this. Wallet stuck on cinni last two spikes - reddcoin yesterday
don't even try to send coins to cryptsy that are on the surge.

YES I FOUND OUT HOW THEY WERE SCAMMING THE HARD WAY = WHEN NXT WAS FIRST PUMPING HARD ON CRYPTSY I TRIED GENERATING AN ADDRESS = NO DEALS THEY WERE INSIDER TRADING!!! =\ *LOST OVER 1BTC ON JUST THIS ONE PARTICULAR INCIDENT!!!!

Where were you last summer when IFC and the other bubbles were being blown thanks to all that insider chat hot air ?

When 2 or 3 of us complained, BitJohn and/or BigVern tried to brush it off by playing stupid.

Then the trolls started to backstab eachother.. the omfg'n lolz
