After watching the mediocre rise and rapid fall of this exchange this smells like an inside hack/exit scam to me honestly. The daily volume over there has been on a steady decline since Dec 17 and things weren't looking to come back anytime soon. Timing is just a bit too convenient.

Governments have seriously stepped up their game when it comes to crypto and cyber forensics the last 18 to 24 months or so.

This is going to keep happening until plebs smarten up and start using true DEXs like Blocknet's DX. Wallet to wallet trading, no 3rd party or anyone/anything besides yourself is in control of your funds at any point while trading. Decentralized orderbooks, decentralized order matching, decentralized everything - it's the purest DX ever.

TO looks pretty based and apparently way far away from exit scamming.
They have DDoS protection, 2FA etc I feel safer there than on some mid tier exchanges, but I agree that no exchange can be trusted. Most of the time the “hacks” are the owner exit scamming.

Trips confirm. I may have lost my cryptopia portfolio, it was only a couple hundred bucks. Don't know yet, because unsure what's gone.
Either way it's part of the volatility that is trading cryptos. We all know what we are signing on for. We all learnt that lesson with Mt Gox. And if you're a newfag who thought that wasn't a problem, well here's a good lesson for you.

its your fault for all your losses. the only people i feel bad about are the ones that were trading at that exact moment and would withdraw their funds afterwards. even then, you should have picked a better exchange to do your trading.
i dont even trust banks with my money and you people trust random fucking idiots with it. the absolute state. keeping anything in exchanges is nigger tier, and if you dont know any other way to keep your holdings safe then i advice you to leave crypto because this is not the first time and wont be the last an exchange exit scams
