I think you should be fine. Make sure to change the security setting required 2FA and email to notify you when someone is login to your account. Keep the minimum funds that. You should never keep your funds at any exchanges for a long period of time.

:)please answer if you have enough information about bittrex site....thanks Smiley

One of my friend in other country have my user and password in bittrex and have my scan of passport too, but she has't my email password that i sign up with it in bittrex. so can she withdraw with any method my balances in this bittrex account or not?

I think the answer is "no" but i want to be sure and maybe with some method she can?
I don't think she can do anything with this. Because when she will try to login to your account you will get a mail to verify new ip and there will be also a option to ignor it, so you can ignore if you saw somthing not normal. the scan passport copy, she can only use the copy to verify any KYC.

I looks like somebody broke up with girlfriend or something like this...difficult situation, but you can be calm - she wouldn't be able to withdraw anything for sure.

If your friend doesn't know the password of your email address you will still need to change your password with your email address with a strong one. Especially if you have huge amount in your bittrex, well why do you need to give your information with your friend?

Slava Ukraini!
I don't understand, how it can be that your friend have your passwors and passport scan? For gods sake, why did you gave it him? Maybe you also gave him your wallet private keys, access to bank account and etc? If not, you should give it him, because you have to trust in your friend...
Seriously, change your password and enable 2FA. Then you will be sure that your friend wont be able to withdraw your funds. But he can make you some problems with your passport scan if he will involve in fraud operations. But if it's true friend, you should hope that he wont do that.

I am a little confused as to why your friends have very personal information. If he is a little smart you can also lose your own email address, in the end your friend will have the whole.
You should not give the information, because that will be your own loss. Of course he can withdraw all the funds you have in bitrex. He just needs to file a change of data or he pretends to lose the email address you have. He only needs to enter your personal data with his passport.

This should answer your question. I got this from bittrex support articles.

If you have two-factor enabled, you will need to enter your 6 digit code and press Confirm. If you do not have two-factor enabled you will need to login to your email account and click the verification link we send you.

But why does your "friend" has your login credentials and a scan of your passport in the first place? No matter how trusted he is, you shouldn't give such data to him, you should now change your password and activate your 2fa (If you haven't) but please note that since he has your passport scan he can still impersonate you in some sites.
He should be safe. Normally, there is no way you can withdraw from bittrex without giving a go ahead with an email. I actually got 2FA enabled on my account anyway and bittrex would always request for that.

The case here is that, most times, even if you want to login, these details are required, and how will he know if the friend is requesting for the 2FA code to login or to withdraw? Since they are friends, probably, they may trust each other to some level anyway for him to have dropped all those details.

Why on earth did you give your friend your account details in the first place? Whether he or she, no one can be trusted. In any case, you should have at least made two factor authentication enabled or rather than giving your friend the full details of the account, you could have generated a bittrex API for just trading, and then give her that to use on a platform like coinigy or tabtrader.

However, with 2FA enabled, she cannot make any withdrawal, but what is the point when she will have to request for the 2FA code anytime she wants to login anyway?

The answer is no. But your "friend" should easily be able to open another account at Bittrex or even at any other new website and use your ID to verify the account. Either way, your friend doesn't seem to be an actual friend. She has no business holding your personal ID information, worst case scenario, you both attempt to sign up with your identity, the site detects it and marks it as fraud, you get your accounts closed and your ID marked as fraudulent.
Eventually if care is not taken, this is what would end up happening. Nevertheless, since he has decided to give the girlfriend Grin all his details, I hope the email details were not given as well. The thing is bittrex will surely give a notification for withdrawal if 2FA is not enabled. If 2FA enabled, all she will need is the 2FA code to get in, but that still live the account vulnerable anyway, since she will need it to always log in, so how will the OP be able to differentiate the two activities?

What? Your so generous my friend. Next time let him hold your coins for good, sarcastically. I can’t blame you or your friend on trusting each other, but if your worried about it, then there is something wrong happen that makes this trust bonds broken. In this forum or any online platform, the motto is “don’t trust anyone” but in real world is different and we understand that but with limitations.

Now change your password and talk to that woman if she deserve to be trusted with those pictures.

it's for first time that you must verify new ip and after you don't need to verify the ip again.
Every time you want to withdraw from bittrex, a mail is always sent to you. It is different from logging in I guess. At least I have always received these emails to verify withdrawal. It is for security purpose. I wonder why you would have to go through that length anyway, giving someone your details to your account. That is absurd. If the person needed your account to trade, you should have used API for trading purpose alone and let the person use that. At least she would not need to login all the time to trade and anytime she wants to withdraw, you are the master.

Bittrex prompts a verification every time you use a different IP even with 2FA enabled. My internet connection is dynamic IP so I go through this virtually every log in.

But I would advise in any case to change passwords, put 2FA on your email if you're able, and in future trust NO ONE with your personal credentials. Especially a female unless it's a family member (no sexist provocation intended). As others have said, Ex-girlfriend or friend with benefits or anything of that nature could put you at high risk.

Even though she doesn't have your email, she could get it from the personal info section on your Bittrex account. If i'm not mistaken that's your user name clearly written under account summary (well mine is). And holding your ID could give her unauthorised access to forgotten password requests on email etc.

Most exchanges require you to submit a selfie of you holding your ID, so her options are limited in that regard.

But be careful dude.


I don't even trust out my accounts specially on trading even to my girlfriend or any other friends.You cant still be sure even our loved ones can really betray you out when it comes to money how much more into other people.When we are already talking about money then better to secure out the informations away from peoples awareness.Setting out 2fa in both trading account and into your email would really give a pain in the head for someone who would try to bruteforce your account.

Agree. You should make sure whether the 2fa or email verification you are using.

If the money in the account is yours, you should change the password and take back the account. If the money is hers, you should transfer the account to her, and ask her to verify the account with her own passport.

I would feel very unsafe if ai were in your situation and would change password to this account even if she can't have my coins withdrawn. Having few USD in my account doesn't mean someone can already take it as their own. Bittrex may find something sketchy to accounts being logged in two different country.

It is always better in first place to not share the id and password only. If need be only share it with you family members so that just in case if anything happens or need require they can withdraw the funds from it. And in such case changing of the password if one option and another option would be to create a new account on the exchange and trade their rather than using this account.

Bittrex is the most trustworthy and the most secure trading exchange amongst all other trading exchanges and that it is not possible for anyone to take away even a single penny out of your bittrex account if he or she does not your email password. You need to worry about such kind of thing but you need to keep all of your credentials secure in order to avoid any unwanted situation.

This is the problem on some people which they do easily trust out people on the net even you would called them as a friend anytime they can betray you for the sake of money.Handling out sensible information like passports would really put you in risk  since he can impersonate you anytime not only on bittrex but also into other terms.Idea above posted by Potato Chips will really give you some idea.

Those are vital informations, why would you even give those things to your friend? You should be weary of human beings, cause most times they are unpredictable and their actions can't seems to be what we expected. I suggest you should change your password of your exchange or if possible, open another account in the exchange and don't use the same information you used in the one she knows. You may trust her but like I said humans are unpredictable.

Better to change your password immediately using your registered email or holding the word trust to a friend you used to call with. Wondering why you told those thing to your friend, specially your passport. Thinking that she is your girl friend before and now she is you ex-gf a.k.a friend. Disaster folks!
