If it's true that they're on the verge of insolvency, it's no surprise that they're going to keep all the users' BCH for themselves.
That might keep them from going bankrupt.
Are they still delaying withdraws btw? Did anyone get their BTC out of there before August 1?
Another problem, waiting for 9 days? Poloniex has ruined their reputation and all of those little problems have been accumulated.
At least they have warn people to move out from their exchange, as they don't want to give you bcash obviously.
Slow response and withdrawal delays may be a good sign to immediately get out from long time ago before you regret it.
Always remember, exchanges has created for trading purpose, not to keep your money, so get in and get out as fast as possible.
