Topic: Is sharing number conformations required is a crime? (Read 231 times)

My experience is that it is better not to trade your digital currency assets on small exchanges. This risk is very high and your tokens cannot be sold in time.

why not ? most of the coins are mainly landed on smaller exchange sites and later on the bigger ones or sometimes they dont end up being listed on there  . will you have the patience to wait ?  facing risk trading on small exchange is better than being ended up getting scammed by coins that arent even listed anywhere.

I had contacted their support and that is not the point the point is why are they hiding number of confirmations required. All other exchanges do mention it which means it a open information that is not causing any harm to you exchange if you disclose. What is that special in Changelly that they clear said it is in their rule not to disclose?

i just chat with the support and they just said that they don't have an estimate number confirmation needed,
but based on the ss below you will see that your transaction should be completed because the support i ask says that the confirmation should be not 210++

I had contacted they through chat and that tab is closed. But, I can start a chat now and can ask them for the same and even now they will give such rude and arrogant replies. They kept giving such predetermined replies for hours. I do not have any expectation from them. I think they would have spammed me if I had not contacted. Felt insecure.
I will report on the thread you shared thanks.

Nope, not a crime... As a matter of fact, i think they're more or less obliged to tell you how many confirmations your deposits will need in order to be credited to your account...

Not disclosing this information can lead to abuse... If your tx has 210+ confirmations, i don't think they can use number of confirms as an argument in a discussion about not crediting your account.

That's really weird. Most exchange would even disclose that information. Can you share some screenshots or something similar?

I suggest you post on their official thread[1] or create a scam accusations if your issue is not yet solved, though I doubt it will speed it up as they're known as a shady exchange here.

The order with ChangeNow when through immediately but Changelly was struck. When I contacted Changelly they said the order needs confirmations. When I asked for number of confirmations required they said they can not. What is wrong in sharing the number of confirmations required? My transactions had around 210+ confirmations.

I have I transferred XVG several times and when I have so many confirmations and said they can not mentioned the number of confirmations that is required, I felt cheated.

Each transaction at Changelly passes three steps. Usually, our transactions take 5-30 minutes to be fully processed. If your transaction takes longer, this could be due to a variety of factors. To find out the reason of the delay, it is important to determine what stage it happened on. Go to your History page, find the transaction you have issues with and look at its status.

1. Waiting for payment
If your transaction is stuck at the “Waiting for payment” stage, it means that we haven’t received money from you, so far.

Why did it happen?

Blockchain overload. This is the most common reason for backlogs. You’ve sent money to our wallet, and now your transaction is in the queue to be broadcasted in the network. Just wait until your transaction shows up in the blockchain and gets at least two confirmations. As a rule, it’s enough for us to receive your coins.

Incorrect memo / destination tag / message (link). If you are sending us Ripple, XEM, Steem/Steem Dollars, Stellar or Decent (links - Currencies) to exchange, the transaction in your History page will have its unique memo, destination tag or message, depending on what crypto you are about to exchange. Compare them to the one you’ve already put in when sending the coins. It should match to the one indicated in your transaction from the History page. If you make a typo or input the completely another memo, destination tag or message, your transaction will not pass through automatically. To process it, you will have to contact our support team and provide all the payment details including your transaction ID on Changelly and a link to your transaction in a blockchain. Once provided, this data will be used to process your transaction manually: we will either refund your coins or exchange them at the rate relevant for the manual processing time.

You’ve sent your coins to a different wallet.

Other technical reasons. If there is no overload, and no other obstacles on your end, there are likely to be some technical issues in our system. You can wait until our tech team resolves the matter or report us (link) to learn more details about your pending transaction.

2. Exchanging
If the Exchanging stage takes more than expected, there might be due to several issues.

Market overload. You are buying crypto at the peak or significant uptick, there is a risk of exchange backlogs due to increasing demand. In this case, your transaction may be stuck at Exchanging.
Technical issues at trading partners. As you may know, Changelly works with large trading platforms. The robot selects a rate and processes your transaction via either of the platforms. On rare occasions, it may have technical issues and halt orders for some reason.
Both of these issues take time to resolve. If you suspect this is the case, you should report us, so that we can provide you with more detailed information on your matter.

3. Sending
Your transaction may be stuck at sending if:

The blockchain is overloaded. There are many transactions waiting to go through, including yours. This issue occurs on the Bitcoin, Bitcoin-based and Ethereum blockchains. Unfortunately, the only thing to do is wait it out. Changelly has no control over a blockchain overload.

4. Overall issues

The list of issues below may concern all the stages.

Coin under maintenance (link – Can’t see this coin in your list). If we consider some coin doesn’t work properly on Changelly or it should be updated, we can halt all transactions related to that coin. Once the coin is back, your transaction is automatically processed at the rate relevant for this moment.
Server DDoS attacks or overloads. Such things may happen to any service. If our servers are backlogged or down, you must wait until the issue is fixed.


Security reasons. We can halt your transaction if we suspect the fact of money laundering or fraud.

What should I do?
Take a deep breath and relax. If your transaction is stuck due to technical issues, then we are likely to know about them and make every our effort to make things work again. If you consider the delay is made by your fault, get assistance at our support ninjas.
