We gave a weeks notice and messages of the new version was sent out over our forum and BitcoinTalk, social media and directly through the client through the built-in Client Alert feature. Seems that direct messages will also be required. As we continue to evolve and take on the best features and security there is no doubt that we will have to hard or soft fork again in the future.

Apologies for any trouble caused. So far this is the only issue reported. I expect that some users are yet to open their old client but they will be greeted by the update notice.

I saw the update notices, after I sent the coins!  It was there the next time I opened my wallet.  Timing...  Thanks for helping out!!

That explains why my coins never got there!  Looks like I'm out 743 Hiro!!

Send a ticket to Poloniex and forward any comunication to us please. You'll get them back one way or the other.

And on another note, seems HIRO has bottomed out and is now slowly climbing up again.

Poloniex just froze HIRO trading.  I bet it is was forked!!!

What will happen to my coins?

Yes, Poloniex is on a fork.

Stop this FUD. Everything works and syncing. Poloniex paused for updates. They want to rename HIC to HIRO and update wallet.

Correct. They are fixing it as we speak.

The people who lost coins because of the fork ( there were onlya few  low volume trades ) should contact both Poloniex and us. We sent out warnings on social media, forums and through the client, but we accept some of the responsibility and will do whatever we can to recover lost transactions.


EDIT : trading has resumed and HIC is now properly named HIRO.

I'm thinking I'm on the correct fork (I have coins coming in from the pool).  Poloniex is looking into the deposit issue.
