I have remembered that I had used Hitbtc one time. Most likely bought some tokens and hold there. But after sold token when I had been going to withdraw and I were surprised about their withdrawal fee. If you small traders then your all profits likely will have to pay as their fee, lol. Everyone aware about their shady activity but still lots of traders trading there. Anyway they won't disable ICX token without any reason. Seems few folks already show the reason and it's quite reasonable. So you may wait for token swap.

hitbtc exchange didn't allow users to transfer or withdrwal #ICX icon for me about 4 months and for some other users more than a year.
and they even didn't announce about that to warn the users not to transfer between trading wallet and main wallet, they just keep it that way for years to get more users into these troubles

People should stop using Hitbtc, they have old issues that they don't want resolve, all those bad reports in the scam sections are still unresolved,
it's only a matter of time before they do an exit scam, the complaints are mounting, and they are losing traders, soon they will scam those traders who choose to stay, so it's a bad idea to still use this exchange.

The system monitor page shows the status of ICX as "investigating". You can check the current status of the specific token/coin via this link: https://hitbtc.com/system-monitor
Check the response of official HitBtc twitter account:

We perfectly understand your concern though apologise for the inconvenience you may be experiencing. We appreciate your patience.

By the way, the ongoing investigation is related to the team and there are accusations against the dump of altcoin by some group of traders according to the twitter crypto accounts. (Not my personal opinion)

Why you stay at HiTBTC? the coin you are planning to exchange or transfer is listed on other well-known exchanges like Binance.
And I heard many bad things about this exchange they called it thieves and scammer.

Here's the list of threads

* HitBTC scam!
* Explanations of pure scam: 65,000 USD stolen by HitBTC
* HITBTC SCAM 29 BTC

That is why I didn't use them even my coins are listed on their exchange.

It is not the exchange I'd be wary about but the wallets in question. In general even the big exchanges like Bittrex always give problems with some of these smaller projects. I remember Bittrex freezing my wallets in some alts a while back for months, not allowing withdrawal or trading. When they finally released it, the pairs were all removed, forcing you to withdraw or get nothing if they get delisted. Tough but that's what happens with alts.

Hey there, might want to check this. Perhaps this is why.



Afaik, whenever hitbtc have upcoming coin swap or maintenance on wallet, they always have this on the dashboard as so the users can see this. Idk why you failed to see this.
Op you probably miss this message from them. I don't use the exchange as it has been given with several unfavorable reviews but as for checking it right now there are active trades on its pair. Is the swap/maintenance done?

https://hitbtc.com/exchange/ICX-to-BTC

This must have been the valid reason why. But I wonder why the OP is saying that he cannot withdraw or transfer his ICX tokens for about four months already. I doubt if the maintenance or token swap will last that long. The OP is even saying that there are also other users who cannot do withdrawals and transfers of ICX funs for more than a year already.
Like I mentioned earlier these kind of things will happen on the shady exchange,they don't even give any announcement before a wallet goes into maintenance and also there will be no information when the wallet will be back so its more like exit scam.I wonders why people using these exchanges when they have shaddiest behaviour from the past to present.

As far as my personal experiences are concerned, I took the risk of opening an account with HitBTC because some of my coins are listed there. While others are also listed on other exchanges at the same time, the volume in HitBTC on those coins are much higher than in others. I am still using HitBTC every now and then and so far I have not been a victim of their shady behavior.

I remember, like 2 years ago I was forced to pay
being forced by who ? and how did you know that your being forced ? afaik , hitbtc had already have a high transaction fee
Hitbtc has their flat rate of 0.0005btc and it's quite high compare to the others 0.0001 and before I really don't mind the fee from what I am earning but now, omg it feels like I'm being robbed hahaha!

Back to the OP, hopefully he could clarify in detailed information what had happened and show some proof.

There is no doubt that it is one of shadiest exchange but lot of other exchanges also have this issue they will say wallet is under maintenance for months and years and we may get no information about when we will get the wallet back.But I guess you can still trade that coin so convert it into as BTC or other coins which can be withdrawn from the exchange.

I remember, like 2 years ago I was forced to pay a very high transaction fee (much higher than it should be) to withdraw my coins from this site and since then I stop using this exchange. It is nothing new though, I don't know there is something error or what.

Try to reach the customer support, raise a ticket and if your issue isn't solved yet then you can create a scam accusation thread

being forced by who ? and how did you know that your being forced ? afaik , hitbtc had already have a high transaction fee becuase i also used that exchange before but like you , i also stop using them and use other exchanges and found out that other good exchange and leading exchanges have a lower fees that hitbtc  but about the locking of tokens  , i havent experience any of those before  . it maybe that they see a strange activity on the op's account thats why they limit it .
