Topic: Walletbit closing with my money (Read 3715 times)
In principle, now many exchanges are closed, and very well that many were able to return their funds. After all, sometimes they just disappear, and it's not even scammers and exchanges that exist for a long time and have good reviews. So the news is disturbing.
Okay, I’m obviously very late to the party, here. Can anyone tell me if they’ve heard back from [email protected]? What exactly is BIPS and how can they help me recover my coins? Is everyone just waiting to hear back from WalletBit or is there something else we can do?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Edit: Heard back from [email protected], poked around with the password reset and login form some more, and now all is well. The coins are back in hand.
You are lucky man, that these people were honest in the end. There was hundreds of wallets that fled with people money.I hope you will be more carefull in future, use offline storage and software wallets that you control.
Honest in the end? Seriously? Walletbit and in particular Kris Henriksen were not honest at all, never gave me my bitcoin back despite promising he would.

I see he continues to be involved in bitcoin to this day, shameful.

So how many other suckers were left in the wind by Kris Henriksen? Shocking that he can just flit from company to company stealing people's money and making false promises, now with some mickey mouse company blockcache https://www.blockcache.com/
theres a lots people in the same case. it's more safe to keep your btc away from a website
I got a reply sometime the end of November, had a new wallet address in place by December, so really I've been waiting a little over a week. I think when things calm down over at bips they will get back to us.
Wondering if you've had any movement with your case or anyone else here?
I opened my BIPS support ticket on December 4th but have had no further reply from the first reply acknowledging the ticket, posted a new reply asking them to update.
The whole purpose of bitcoin or cryto was to be a safe store of value.
Well , at least of of it's purpose.
When you start using an website and deposit you coins there , you're basically renouncing to all this.
Also , with the current amounts of "hacks" happening , I would advise anyone not to leave their coins in the hands of a third party.

I'm still waiting for walletbit to transfer my bitcoins to a new address. It's very nerve wracking not knowing what is going on with them.
Have you received any reply/acknowledgement?

I have yet to hear back. This is becoming worse and worse.

I don't disagree with any of that 
Oh boy, that is one hell of a bait comment.
No ticket, yet. All instructions from WalletBit/Kris have been to e-mail [email protected], but I am following your updates to see if I should also do that.
I understand their situation with BIPS. What concerns me is that other users/people should not pay for those mistakes.
Two things:
1) The WalletBit issue is not related. < The important part.
2) The money/WalletBit database was taken offline (when it closed), as per Kris/WalletBit/etc - safe and sound. < The important detail in the important part.
I appreciate that Kris and company's attention is on the BIPS situation, but I will not tolerate them screwing WalletBit's users in order to fix BIPS screw up. A person's money is their money, that is the irrevocable fact built into Bitcoin.
If there was not many users on WalletBit (as per Kris in this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-walletbit-bitcoin-service-and-related-suspended-249751), then it should not take so long for those involved/Kris/BIPS to process the few WalletBit e-mails they have.
According to that thread, and this one, it seems to only take minutes to fix the problem. From their perspective, they would have it over and done with; one less scandal to deal with.

Well I wish you luck recovering it, I think we're entitled to their return when it's not our fault we weren't informed of the closure, but I think we also have to respect the issues BIPS are going through right now, hopefully they recover fine and we recover our Bitcoins fine
Did you open a ticket on the Bips support system?
Did you open a ticket on the Bips support system?
How many Bitcoins did you lose access to? (if you're comfortable answering of course).
As a precaution, no specific amount, but it greater than 3 digits worth in dollars
Still no reply via e-mail.
