We are now online with a new temporary URL!

Nothing has changed other than the URL.
We will be using this until the DNS issues are resolved.

http://coinexchange2.com

Thank you for your patience and support!

We are setting up access on an alternate domain name now. We will let you know when this is ready to use and appreciate your patience.

We apologise to those of you that are unable to access the website. We are working round the clock to setup alternate access. This has been caused by our domain getting blacklisted by SPAMHAUS for spam we DID NOT send or authorize which has resulted in a DNS block.

I don't understand why these exchanges don't have a secondary server which would prevent this from happening. I really do believe they gained a lot of money in a very short time and that they have enough funds to build a redundancy system.

I also tried but it was not opening, maybe there is some kind of server or IP problem. Try after sometime.

Found the answer.
There's tweet on their twitter:

Due to spam emails that are circulating, we are experiencing DNS issues.

We are sorry for any inconvenience and are working now to fix this.
We will keep Twitter and Facebook updated.

Do not worry. We have NOT been hacked. Everything is safe and secure!

Does anyone know what happened to the Coinxchange? I can not access the site, the page does not open. Even the ping of site does not pass (Ping request could not find host coinexchange.io ...)
It looks like an escape.

I am also a member of this exchange and as of the time am writing this reply the site is not accessible. Well, this is just saying to us the many risks involved in the world of cryptocurrency where even exchanges may choose to run away with our coins and tokens. Though am giving them the benefits of the doubt and hope that the site is just undergoing technical problems and will be back sooner than we expect. It would be a blackeye to the whole cryptocurrency community to see an exchange which is getting to be popular to just go away leaving us with empty bags. This can be one of the many reasons why government is really pushing for strong regulation to protect hapless users.
