I tried to send my btc from mint to a wallet, not much, but why keep it there when you can do shit with it. I had some alt coins transfers go through as usual, but btc not happening, no response from support and I think i see a problem. anyone else?

Now, they prohibit withdrawal, may be are filed for bankruptcy!

It's very unfortunate to see Mintpal going down with people's coins/money.

I had only 5000 dogecoins left there so I am safe but I still feel pain for other people Sad

It's time that we don't trust any exchange for keeping coins, just trade and withdraw immediately.

If everyone did as you suggest there would be no standing market, only auctions nevertheless  

1)  how safe is the wallet you transfer the funds to?
2)  if you transfer it to any wallet that has internet access you have a potential problem,
3)  is your computer wallet password protected?
4)  is your computer wallet hackproof?
5)  can your computer not get destroyed, vandalized, or stolen?
6)  can your paper wallets not get lost or destroyed?

please tell me that you have 2 of 3 multi-sig paper wallets and that each of the signers have at least two places to retrieve their respective codes, then I will know you have a safe wallet.

With that in mind, there is no practical way transfer in, out, back, forth and at the same time maximize security, you would loose so much time it would not be worth the savings of not doing it and getting ripped off a bit.  The bottom line is in the CC business you must leave room for lots of loss, regardless of how that loss occurs: via clicking error, stuck transactions, lost deposits, scams, hacks, exchange failure, all the way up to developer mismanagement or just missing.

The safest way to deal in the CC biz is the least profitable way, not just withdraw out of exchange everyday, also to withdraw out of crypto everyday.

I know there were people foolishly trying to get mintpal's bounty of 1.25BTC by doing 100BTC worth of trades.  In order to even consider that you had to commit many resources to the effort: lots of funds, lots of time, and lots of energy.   All of those people got screwed so hard they are mince meat right now.

Because of all of the scams, and all of the general dishonesty the CC industry is not growing as it should and rates keep falling instead of rising.

There was a critical bug found in mintpal which has caused them to close the exchange temporarily, their "management" company Moolah also just filed for bankruptcy.

Mintpal is current looking for new "management" but I would avoid.

thanks for heads up

http://www.coindesk.com/moolah-mintpal-closure-bankruptcy/

btw i always use DOGE as gateway for withdrawals, never BTC
it's faster, avoid many btc/exchange limitations and is accepted on any platform. as soon is cleared i convert back to btc or i hold few days in doge

And now the Moolah website is having problems, but the last news I have was that they were basically out of reserves and they're going to basically sell everything. This from their Twitter at @moolah_io:

Quote
As there appears to be some confusion - we just want to clarify that @MintPalExchange is not closing.

And yeah, Twitter users who are also Mintpal users seem to be pissed too.

Moolah.io is going bankrupt. They are themselves all tangled up in all kinds of assets. Its pretty much get fucked time! Sad

yep. get rid of their fiat.. hide the bitcoin. claim bankruptcy and then ride it out for a few months while you hoard secret wealth

This happens to be the business plans of 99.9 percent of BTC companies.

Bitstamp and btc-e seem to be still making a great deal of money.

BTC-e seems to be next. Run by people nobody has ever seen.

sorry that this has happened to you guys, but everyone else should learn from this and NOT TRY to transfer BTC, but some alt and transfer that. 

If they don't have any more BTC or the BTC transfer line is a mile long use another currency.   

Get a relatively obscure coin that goes up and down like the tic and toc of a clock then buy on the tic then transfer and sell on the toc.
