RE: EVERYONE NEEDS TO START USING BITSHARES!!! POLONIEX: The Scourge Of The Cryptocurrency Exchange Space Is At It Again . . .

in #steemit8 years ago

Glad you escaped!

I'm looking to migrate to Bittrex as well, but I'm going to definitely have to tread more cautiously. This centralized exchange business is getting to be a bit much . . . again.

Sort:  

trex is good ! but keep that in mind , a friend of mine account hacked (he didn't use 2FA - i know he was stupid about that) his psw was unique , hacker logged, dumped all his coins then spiked ETH/GUP left him with 20 GUP, 10btc loss, trex didnt do shit about it, block the account of the hacker etc instead they asked for lawsuit /fbi action, which is going to take ages !

I don't think that it will ever happen! That's messed up, sorry to hear that . . .

How was your friend compromised? Do you know the method that the "hacker," used to compromise his system?

Hacker used his login credential, his computer has anti-malware & anti keylogger paid versions, so from somewhere his id/psw have leaked, no password changed or something,

agree, bts is not ready for this yet. great for hedging with bitusd/cny though!
