Going to the Gov was a really bad move.
Cryptsy is a rare, decent exchange.

They are manipulating the market to increase their profit to the roof, its common now see buy orders higher than sell orders in the orders book (something impossible, and you can see almost all days.).
You can't beat them, even with the best bot.

Today, they simulate a pump but they don't fill the orders in the middle (I had one sell order sent hours before, but they start trading higher without fill the sell orders in the middle).
I have a perfect record with many other exchanges, but the Cryptsy records didn't match my records (coins disappear from my account).

it's a fraud. Be careful !

I have tons of screen shoots with absurd numbers. Just check the orders book of LTC/BTC market today.

They didn't answer the support tickets.

That's what I love about this crowd.

choosing another ex is fair, but crying at the gov is foul. Got no respect for that.

You know, this is really pissing me off. This is not an easy way to make money, at all. First we wade into it, many of us with little to no programing experience, fight through the maze of missing and misinformation, figure out how to get the miners set up, risk our hard earned money, which is which is harder to earn lately because of all the time it took to learn how to get mining efficiently, on hardware that we constantly have to add to and maintain. Then it's time to trade. Some people like to gamble. I don't. So, I pay very close attention to prices, and don't make long term predictions, which makes trading a very meticulous process. But I can reliably make gains that way, and not losses...

... as long as the FUCKING EXCHANGE DOESN'T SUCK.

Since this has to be an income for me, and not play money, I can't make big trades. I barely make 1% on each one, and cryptsy takes half of that, which is fine, as long as the exchange is there for me when I need it. That means that the information I see is in real time, not two minutes old. Thirty seconds is too long. It means that when I withdraw money, the withdraw is processed, then, not days later when the coin the shit is stuck in is selling for half as much and I've lost any gains it could have made me.

We mine all the coins. We make all the trades. We take ALL the risk, they take NONE. We do all the work, and all they have to do is keep the damn exchange working.

These problems are not just mere inconveniences. THEY COST US MONEY!

I'm sure each employee has a difficult job and works very hard. But vern... no.

High patronage is NOT a problem, for ANY business. If your site is to slow to handle the traffic that makes you your money, you need to dump that money that's flooding in on it until it can keep up. He obviously has not been doing enough of that. It's been this way too damn long.

Bter has plenty of volume in DOGE. Their trade fees are 28% less than vern's. They're rescanning the bitcoin blockchain right now, so don't expect a payout until that's done. Other than that, there's no reason for anyone to stay with cryptsy.


If too much traffic is his problem, we should help him out.

I already covered most of your question in my initial post, but you're almost right about one thing.. In hindsight I should've assumed that by trying to do the right thing that I would lose out. With your and Cryptsy's mentality it's a mistake I won't make again. Can you do me a favor and post a link to the research you're referring to? The only stuff I found were people frustrated by losing coins... or, wait, are we talking about the same research except in your conclusion you "sold quickly so you wouldn't potentially lose coins but others would"? I was trying to be selfless rather than selfish. (Inb4 "you miss the point of trading")


It's not the altcoins that are the problem, it's the exchange. I'm glad you've had a positive experience though, MANY of us weren't that lucky.


Apparently you've been handed an opportunity here my friend! Now that I've been enlightened and I've had confirmation from Cryptsy that exploits are OK, you should ride this wave to richdom!

I believe you.

As you can see, my 42 deposit tripled itself soon after it confirmed. lol

I've never had a problem with Cryptsy and they've always resolved things in a timely manner. I think they're the best exchange in the US. Everyone taking them to court or complaining about problems with second rate altcoins  is pretty dumb imo.

Ok, that happened to me too. I sold more LTC than I actually had, but I knew that was wrong and made sure I had enough to cover it when it would become negative. If you would have researched before you would have realized what to do in case of that. You said you googled it, well then why didn't you sell it right away? No one is saying what Cryptsy allowed with this flaw was OK, we all agree it was a complete fail in their design. But, we knew this and we also knew you would lose money if you didn't sell it right away and got your balance back to positive. Why did you risk losing all your profits?

Lol.. did you even read my post? That is what the "misunderstanding" is about. I'm telling them I didn't click buy twice.. it was one buy order that got executed twice by the exchange. Thanks anyway man.

You most likely kept hitting buy when nothing was confirmed. This happened during a high load time and it IS your fault if you can think logically. When something is getting hammered, do you A. Keep spamming the buy/sell/cancel button or do you B. Hit the button once and then stop touching it.

I think he means real in that it is not counterfeit. I guess most of us use some kind of "fake" money.

My favorite "fake" money are white tailed deer. I have several bucks at home.

shitclones are the very worst though i need to buy a 500MH farm to 51% all those turds before they get started.

I hate thieves, but I hate Narcs and rats worse.

Good, thanks for your input. Even after reading your response for a third time I still miss the joke.. but ok. In regards to the fiat integration, if they do manage to get that going, then at least people getting screwed over will have a leg to stand on. By that I mean the value of fiat is understood by the legal system and worth can be attributed. It's easier to understand if someone said "I transferred $50k to Cryptsy and they stole it" than "I transferred 60 BTC.. etc".

Their "great new" money stealing feature will ultimately be their demise.. well, hopefully    Admittedly I haven't read through the entire thread but I do hope something comes of this complaint. I'd be keen to join the bandwagon/lynch mob but I'm not a US Citizen. I'll have to look at my options.

Yeah I can imagine  your USD going bye bye or the BTC not showing up for a day or 2 after you buy it.

I was not trying to derail the topic. I was making a joke from what you posted, lighten up a bit champ. And I know Cryptsy has not integrated Fiat into the exchange and personally I hope they never do.

Oh shit, I knew there would be at least one of you trying to derail the topic by starting a debate about this. That's why I put "real" money in quotes to thwart people like you. Please, just..stop.

Now I don't know whether your question was an honest one or not or you're just trying to fuck around, but no.. you cannot buy coins with "real" (oh shit..I did it again) money on Cryptsy.

TLDR; Cryptsy has also stolen my money (yes, some of us buy coins with "real" money) ( From the post above)

How does one use "real" money to buy coins at Cryptsy?

Could someone define "real money"? Is it real because you can hold it your hand? Or a wallet, bank, pocket or hide it under ground in jars?

I personally haven't had any problems since using Cryptsy other than some delays with deposits and some serious lag at times causing bugs. It seems some people have been stung though and Cryptsy should do the right thing and get those problems fixed ASAP.
