Last time I was on Poloniex, I saw that there was a withdrawal limit of something like $25,000 per day or less.
So if your XMR are one day worth 1 million dollars, you'll have to withdraw every day for weeks and weeks to withdraw your XMR?
At those prices, I assume those who have millions of dollars worth of XMR wouldn't be storing them on exchanges anyway (unless they know what they're doing).
but they need the possibillity to sell if they want to. not all at once, but close to.
the situation worries me a lot. due to this there are xmr whales not trading on polo anymore as you may have noticed. i have no problem with holding a coin longterm, but i will never hold something i can not sell if i want to, and yes i want to sell it quickly becasue maybe i need the money quickly.
i really hope we will see good liquidity on the fiat exchage, polo lost all my symapthies and i will never return if i can avoid it. having withdrawl limit/kyc/aml in non usd markets is just bullshit.
investing in xmr from whale point of view became a much higher risk due to this, thats how they caused huge damage to this coin. i can not ignore this. i was a loyal customer, produced several 100 k's of usd volume there, but enough is enough. not to mention the still unpublished lending data, its a shame they do this to their loyal customers. combination out of it smells very bad to me, it would not suprise me having them runing a fractional reserve (ponzi) system allready
anyway, i am confident we will see a new exchange soon. 1 year from now polo wil be completely forgotten(or still hover around somewhere close to 200 btc volume)
i can not see any real growth in xmr as long as this is our main exchange.
its really bad and yes i am angry. we can all be happy xmr has such strong whales with so much confidence in this coin. without them, xmr would have melted down imediately once the anouncment of polo came public. the exchangerate would be nowhere close to what it is now.
so please, dont say "the limit does not hurt", it does hurt the people making this coin valuable. they have more stress, higher risk and arehave to be more carefull investing since they dont know if they will be able to cash out easily.
