Polo is shutting down everything:
Iloveu: In 30min, as a precaution against the attack threat, XMR deposits and withdrawals will be frozen for 24hrs and all funds put in cold storage.
I made the important bit bold. Trading is not suspended.
thanks a lot, that's why my coins have been stuck at 18/20 confirms.
How is this any different than a bank deciding I'm not allowed to have access to my money?
Its not. Exchanges are banks by default.
What time specifically is the attack supposed to start? I need to make sure that I start my popcorn at the right time.
This instils much confidence that a small group of people can completely shut-down the system because they feel like it. Let me guess, its for my benefit and protection. Central Bank of Monero?
If you dont know what you are talking about than that's fine. Ignorance isnt a crime. But don't pretend like you have any sort of idea what you are talking about if you don't.
What don't I get? The core group asked exchanges to shut down deposits. I sent my coins before fluffypony's announcement. Mintpal did it without notice now my coins are in limbo for 24hours.
It looks pretty clear that a few people denied me access to my money. Is this not centralization?
It sure is! And it's a scam too! You lost out bigtime on this one I assume.. Shoulda listened to me and not written me off yesterday when I said this kind of shit would happen.
