Figured I'd check out the new Kraken. Still can't log in! Shocker Shocked

. I mean, hey, haven't been able to get in for over a year, why would it work now, after a full page of reset passwords? What a shit show. Ticket submitted. Let's see if I get a response before March. Not that it matters. Last ticket response was singularly unhelpful and untimely. I just want to know how much of my money they have. Is that so much to ask?

Maybe you are doing something wrong.

Yeah, but most exchanges include the txid so you can easily check if it got confirmed or not so you can easily prove who is fucking it up.

That said... I stopped txing BTC between exchanges since the fee got to a few dollars. I discovered the usefulness of Litecoin and other shitcoins for that and never looked back. Never had a single problem txing anything between exchanges.

The problem is slippage at both ends converting LTC. Especially if LTC is not a trading pair.

Yup. But usually is not BTC what I want to convert to other shitcoins. I dont do unnecesary trades. Also I try to have what I need in every exchange, only having to rebalance very unfrequently. I don-t really care about slippage because it can work both ways.

Most of my txs between exchanges are usually for lending when polo or bitfinex have some shortage of a particular coin and offer a crazy daily rate.

Anyway, LN transfers between exchanges would be an AWESOME addition.

Sometimes even the big exchanges have wallets that go offline after you have sent coins to them during pumps. They only go back online after your coin's price has drastically crashed, and you are left with a huge loss.

I suppose even LN transfers aren't immune to that problem.

Once the exchanges start using lightning to send BTC between them, it’s game over for many altcoins.

Who sends btc directly between exchanges. That's just asking for trouble.

why?

Because eventually you will have a stuck transaction, and then who you gonna call? Who will take responsibility for fucking up? Exchange one? Two? YOU?

It's just plain stupid.

BTC transaction stuck between exchanges by technical error? Don't remeber such case on decent exchange, it happens all the time with shitcoins. BTW, bots move BTC all the time between exchanges for arbitrage. You would be surprised the number of transactions between them.

Some exchanges are more competent than others. I trust Bitstamp. Bitgrail or Mercatox? Not so much.

Look I understand the point about if the transaction gets lost you are potentially arguing with two different exchanges about who lost it. But when you are on mobile and trading shitcoins and time matters, it’s really the only way to do it.

Did spam faucet ran dry again? Someone ping Ver for a top up

Non-segwit transactions declining slightly. Segwit transaction size is through the roof.

Maybe a medium size to large player started batching and using Segwit.
