It's been one week since I posted my previous post about the disabled withdrawal and exchange of steem on poloniex. The message they post is not encouraging at all:
That warning makes no sense for me as long as steem transactions can be done from other platforms. Further more, they work just fine, in a matter of seconds, from steemit wallet. So it's hard for me to buy what poloniex is stating, that steem platform is the root cause of the fact that they disabled steem!
When I read a few weeks alarming stories about poloniex I said it can not be that bad. At that time I had been using using Poloniex and without any major problem with them.
Now I'm afraid to keep any founds with them, simply because they have no restraint to block your funds for unlimited time. I understand they have reasons to block transactions but they should not block withdrawals. After all the money are ours and they should not do it!
I have 2500 steem blocked in poloniex. Currently I have almost 8500 steem power and I want to power up to over 10000(I would be to around 11000 SP), but poloniex is denying it.
Guy keep this in mind when you deal with poloniex! I was once very happy with them but now I'm totally disappointed. Remember there are many exchanges out there. I can name 2 of them which I used to buy steem: blocktrades and bittrex. Steem community should be aware of it so I'll keep posting those warnings on weekly basis, as long as steem withdrawal is going to be re-enabled on poloniex.
I once transfered to poloniex without any problem. The second time was a nightmare, the funds didn't show on my account. But after a while i finally received the money. I wont use poloniex anymore :/
I also had good experience with them in the past. But regarding steem they went way too far. And the problem is that if they do that with steem they can block any other currency like bitcoin and ethercoin. IMO is totally unacceptable and this is why we should react!
Wow! Good to know, thanks for the advice. Hopefully it isn't a permanent issue
Seems to be a recurring one. Most of the time they seem to have steem disabled. When they enable it they do it for limited time...
Poloniex is going to pot.
But remember you can use either Bittrex, Livecoin or HitBTC instead
I can't believe Poloniex are still creating mayhem with all the problems regarding their steem wallets.
They are literally stealing people's money and in no shape or form trying to communicate with anyone.
I hope all goes well for you @steem-buzz and you are able to power up
This submission has made it on the @MutuWhale MutuList!
Today Steem is re-enbled in poloniex, you can withdraw your coins befor he desabled it again.
