The site is completely working as of now maybe they only made a maintenance or else its a cloudflare problem. Check hitbtc ots fully working again.

I am trying to send some tokens to hitbtc from 2 weeks but in vain.Every time transaction failed. I have tried everything by increasing gas limit and price but nothing is working. Have you ever faced this issue ?? If yes how can we resolve this ??

Good Morning

Honestly used it, everything was wonderful. I do not think that the rumors that he dies correspond to reality. It works like a clock and I think it will work like that, one of the big exchanges.

The HITBTC market is an unreliable market. When a problem is encountered, the solution can not be reached for months. absolutely must not be used.

Hitbtc is low volume now, and mostly bots trading, makes it really sad.

What do you mean low volume, they are amongst the top 10 trading platforms with at least $300M per 24 hours. I don't know about the bots though, because I haven't use any on my trading, plus I did trade on HitBTC and was able to withdraw without any issues. So I can't judge them unfairly.

But the good news is that there are a lot of trading platforms out there, good options if you are not happy with HitBTC then we can register on others and see it your self. I even traded on Livecoin before, which has a volume of around $30K today. So there's always that risk, it just up to us how to mitigate and used our common sense.

I dont know why these people do proclaim things which isnt true and without any proofs yet as a trader we do know the current standing of hitbtc when it comes to volume and overall ranking in the market.Where we can definitely say that this isnt dying and as you said there are lots of options of exchanger if we dont like a particular exchange its just really a matter of users preference in the end.

They are not dead they are just regulating it because there are many whales inside on it. It is actually working until now but i can't assure you that they are still anonymous at the same time it is working and that is reason why people still using it and trading on it.

HitBtc is one of Top 10 biggest exchange, but I don't like trading in it because some reasons: always maintenance, dump all coin rapidly, high fee and some disadvantage.

I haven't exactly traded on hitbtc due to the many accusations levelled against them.

You are one of the very few. Keep it like that.

I believe if they solve their many issues ,it should be a good exchanger.

They won't solve anything. It will only become worse, and while the past isn't always a good indicator for what's going to happen in the future, in this case it has been a solid indicator. I have seen from the start how this exchange has gone downwards in every possible way, and it only became worse due to their token greed and unwillingness to actually push their exchange to the next level. I'm not saying everyone experiences the same problems, because that's not the case, but a lot of the users do and it has to stop for once. A fundamentally shitcoin exchange will never improve. As Einstein once said.... Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Hitbtc lose popularity because they have very high price of the transaction. When I bought 25000 OCN tokens I lose 5000 coins on the comission. I didn't prefer use this exchange. They should do rebrending

HitBtc is not dead yet but the volume of trades there is very low compare to other new exchanges. Hitbtc should improved their service and makes it more faster to transact on their exchange. I use this before but after having a problem on delaying my funds, I just moved out and try another exchanges. I still believe Hitbtc will be better in the future, I hope so.

this error happened to many websites, all we need to do is to keep track.
panic, FUD, and false accusation are some of the big reason why we are having the bear market.
this is not healthy to cryptocurrency community.

Hello?

It's death just now.

Is this happening often?

They're not anonymous right? Where are they based on?

I really don't know if they are really death but there are a lot of scam accusations against them. See below

What makes me nervous though is that I have some of my tokens in that exchanges which valued around $1K. And with all the accusations, (it could be more), I need to be careful and make decisions to get out while I still can.

If all of these accusations are there and you are still waiting till when you will make a decision by putting a timeline to it when the site itself won't notify you or anyone that have experience the other side of their action of any impending danger. I also saw the accusation at the time I was about to make some deposit of a token. Immediately, that decision was reversed and since then till this time, out path have never cross which won't happen until things have change for the better.

I haven't use hitbtc due to various scam accusations even before and complains that I've read.

Not only one person is complaining about them but there's a bunch of it so those testimonies were enough to stay away from them.

Dear traders, due to some problems in our hosting provider’s infrastructure, all the HitBTC services are unavailable or partly available starting from 11:30 UTC 24 May. We will post an update as soon as the issue is resolved.

They have an update regarding this on their twitter account and it says they resolved it so everyone open a support ticket to them.

They are not, but I would be curious to know where they operate also, it will give us relief. SO whenever they try to run, they could easily be found and prosecute, I hope regulations come and force them to comply, they need to prove they are trusted platform/exchange if they want to last. After all they are one of the top 10, whose profits from trading is raking nice figures.

Yes, I think for USDT withdrawals, its about $100, which is so high assuming that you are going to withdraw less than amount. As I have said before, I already withdrawal most of my funds and everything went smooth. However, let me just warn newbies, as to be very careful not just HitBTC for that matter, but all other exchanges. This is just part of the process, if you don't trust the exchanges then get out.

Quote from: Brucer on May 23, 2018, 02:55:09 PM

hitbtc is working but with a error.

The problem is when I am trying to withdraw using BTC I got this message:

The owner of r.sb.hitbtc.com has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.

Hmmm. weird error because I just access it now and seems everything is working. Although I don't used FF because its too slow. Maybe you have to check everything, you might get phished, so be careful.

Last week, I did two trades on hitbtc for the first time. But never again. This is because:
- Withdraw fees are unreasonably high;
- You can only trade with silly multiple for selected pairs. I have leftovers in my account which I will never be able to retrieve!

In many threads there has been advised to avoid such exchange. I do confirm that.

Just because their site is slow as hell,you think they're gonna exit scam?
Wow , how many times did kraken exit scam then?
Seriously, unless you have any proof, don't panic like that.

What proof is needed again here ? The fact that they have no support, the fact that they have screwed some users over time, or the fact they are just full of shit. A lot of people will be surprised at how things end up turning out with the likes of this exchange as well as the likes of Yobit. For heaven sake, using an exchange generally is risky since they are centralized, but now using a shitty exchange is like seeing a trying to play with a viper's tail.

It's true the support is terrible but frankly, how many exchanges have good support? I got my questions answered almost 60 days after the request is sent - and for some of them I never get any answer. I personally spread my tokens across 6 exchanges to mitigate any such risk.

In most cases all exchanges are equally as bad, but the main factor is also the nature of your complaint and what balance you are holding there. It shouldn't matter in a perfect world, but exchanges do filter based on that.

The lower the reply to reward ratio is of your complaint, the longer it will take to get a response from them. Some exchanges are worse than others in that aspect, but the fact is that it shouldn't happen.

I must however add that tokens are a plague to this ecosystem with all their problems. The majority of the complaints have to do with tokens, which says enough for me. The situation will only improve when the ICO hype ends.
