wish all the nay sayers were around for this moment. Cryptsy withdrawals are frozen Sad... never a good sign.

They were down for an hour or so due to an outage at our datacenter.

"Your withdrawal request has been successfully confirmed"
Everything was fast to this point, and I am expecting it will complete.
Cryptsy has proven to be very dependable for me and many other traders.

At all coins? For every user? Was there any explanation?

I had the feeling that they got their troubles sorted out, more or less. My last experience there (maybe half a year ago) was when support guys were employed/hired (my ticket after 2FA loss was solved successfully in a matter of minutes after creating it... I heard those support stories here on the forums, so Cryptsy was the last exchange I contacted to reset my 2FA, thinking it won't work out anyway because nobody will answer my ticket - I stood corrected when the reply arrived some five minutes later) and the user NetworkAdmin was constantly busy improving the system (it got faster, indeed), and also the staff in the chat has always been nice.

Luckily, I never went into negative balance.
But maybe there will be an explanation for the current lock of withdrawals, so let's be patient. Smiley

The only time you get a negative BTC balance is if you are not paying attention during a trade lag and you put the order in again...and again.

...
believe me when i tell you.. im not exaggerating in the slightest...

You are exaggerating a lot or you are not competent/experienced enough to be an authority on this subject.
I've been spending more time on Cryptsy and it is really pretty good.

I was completely idle at the pc, when my 42 deposit tripled. You shouldn't assume that people are always madly clicking away. lol

Months earlier, it was the 30 DMD I withdrew, then found it still sitting there on my next visit.

Have you asked BigVern or BitJohn, why are these events occuring ?

I wouldn't say Cryptsy was a scam. I highly doubt their intention is to rip of users. The site just over used and can't keep up with the volume.

Here is the property management company that leases their supposed address. They never heard of them.

Anyone in Florida want to pay a visit to this address?

They might know Cryptsy as "Project Investors"

Eventually, as with all Bitcoin businesses, we will find out Cryptsy was being operated by a 14 year old boy in his parents basement.

Cryptsy's fee shares are likely to go up in value.  That Dogecoin rally was on huge volume.  Like a weeks worth of volume in a day. So this Fridays dividend is going to be fat.  I guess this is what the future holds as more people and money come into Cryptsy.  Fatter and fatter dividends.

This week is a record though.  By at least 100% over past record.  Maybe more.

The problem with Cryptsy is the bloated and non-transactional code. I was also able (by their mistake) to sell twice some coins, ended up with negative balance and withdraws locked.

It's okay for miners that dump and auto-sell their coins, it's not so good for trading and arbitrage

Hmm, ive had a few problems and so have people I know in the forum.. Undecided

I have problems upon problems with cryptsy. I've been really trying to shut up and wait for them to sort their shit out but they won't.
Right now I can't withdraw my money for the reason unknown to me. I've sent them a ticket, received message saying that "my ticket has been received" and another "that it has been resolved", and another one "it's been closed". I still can't withdraw my money and it's stuck there for reasons unknown to me.
I also experienced negative balance, delays and whatnot.
So for me it's a no no. They're either scam or useless - either way it's no way I want to carry on doing business there.

Bingo! This place is a 100% rip! Users Beware!

I realy dont underestand why so many people still using the site..


They collect fees from customers and dont offer anything in return! (eg. a working site or customer support)
Instead of dealing with their problems and bugs (they obviously have a lot), they are adding a new coin almost dayly. This clearly shows what they care about, profit!

This is pretty mutch the definition of SCAM...


In my Opinion they badly damaging the crypto community. I vote for scammer tag!




Also the poor excuses: lag, server overload, victom of own success... 
Please take a look at the cost for computing power, if you buy decent server hardware for lets say a month of cryptsys income.... you would handle that hand full of users without noticeable load!

Guys I am also trading with cryptsy since a long time and i do have problems but when we put supports tickets they use to solve, in my case my long run was 70 hrs and that also happened because of having a lot of support tickets, We must understand such situations, They are trying to do there best and that we must support. If you do hace issuee just put your support ticket and tweet so your problem wil be solved.
But because of a simple problem its not good to blame as a scam, In my history i have more then 20 support tickets submited (some issuee i try to solve myself which could be solved by trigging the audit) almost all the supports were been replied within 12 Hrs or less and the only ticket took long was at the time of Vegas Conf. now they upgraded there system and making more and more smoother.

Good Luck
Note: I am just a trader like you guys who is happy with trading them
I dont have any other relation with Cryptsy to support them

The insider trader talk was simply disgusting at times. That is.. until 2-3 of us began to complain and basically had to spell out what insider trading was.

Then theres the resident hobo, jumping on every noob that walks in the door, beggin and askin them for emails and skype id's. Verry phishy ?!
