Cryptopia Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  AMLBot (@AMLBotHQ) reported 2 minutes ago

  @CryptoCurb @FBI BTC-e was shut down for money laundering. Cryptopia died after a massive hack. Binance? Already went through every possible investigation, paid $4.3B in fines, and operates under U.S. oversight. So no — this isn’t “the next BTC-e.” This is a regulated giant, not a shadow CEX from 2017. Posts like this are pure coordinated FUD)

  There have been a lot of crypto scams. Early on the media proclaimed that it was what criminals used. There have been a lot of collapses. FTX wasn’t all that long ago. Cryptopia in New Zealand filed for bankruptcy. HashFlare in Estonia was a Ponzi scheme. More recently there was the Hawk-tua-girl related rug pull. There have been a lot of rug pulls. In people’s minds it’s all connected to Bitcoin. Saylor talks about the infinite money glitch. People can’t understand how that’s not a house of cards or a Ponzi scheme. There has been so much noise blocking the signal that people just tune it all out. For those of us who can filter out the noise it’s obvious.

  2017 •BTC-e – One of the longest-running Bitcoin exchanges, shut down in July 2017 after U.S. authorities seized servers and charged the operator with money laundering. •Bitfinex (partial failure) – Not a full shutdown, but in 2017 it was still recovering from its massive 2016 hack and issued BFX tokens to cover losses. •Yobit, Cryptopia (issues began) – Not total collapse yet, but operational and withdrawal issues started to appear in late 2017. ⸻ 2018 •Coincheck – Hacked in January 2018 for ~$530 million in NEM, one of the largest crypto thefts ever. The exchange halted withdrawals for months, damaging trust. •MapleChange – Canadian exchange that vanished in November 2018 after claiming it was hacked; widely regarded as an exit scam. •Bitsane – Popular for XRP trading, became inaccessible in mid-2018 with user funds gone. •Liqui – Ceased operations in 2018 due to “lack of liquidity” after the bear market hit. •QuadrigaCX (problems started) – In 2018, withdrawal delays and banking issues escalated; it fully collapsed in early 2019. •Cryptopia – New Zealand exchange that began having serious operational issues in late 2018, then was hacked and shut down in early 2019.

  @imgislost @Coinicarus @SamouraiWallet Getting Orange Pilled is a process…. I bought my first Bitcoin in 2017, then got involved in mining, then ‘day trading’ on Bittrex, Binance & Cryptopia (aka gambling on Mcafee tweets)... Then spent some time participating in DAOs on Etherum before doing DevRel for a Bitcoin L2 - that's where i learned about BitVM and ZK which lead me down the privacy rabbit hole…. so yes, i know about Samourai Wallet, but it wasn't until i was 6 years deeps. She’ll get there eventually…. Hopefully with some guidance from the community she can get there quicker. 🧡

  I have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years🫣😜

  We need some good news for #bitcoin. I was around for 2017 bear market. This one seems way worse to me. I think because last bear market it was just price go down and ICO's getting shut down and small exchanges like Cryptopia. This time its horrible news and massive collapses.

  @SigmaSquared_ TVL surges after exchange blowups is contradictory. A bit naive to think that normies in 2025 getting to experience yet another Cryptopia/FTX moment will suddenly restore faith in defi lmao, especially considering how **** this sector has fared in the last year

  @SammyJoe_786 @CryptoTony__ It's like reading my own experience, bought doge around 0.002 and then forgot about it until last years ath. Only ****, it got stuck on cryptopia (now in last step to get it back)

  @pursang20 @Cryptopia_NZ I also got the mail but can't log in with authentication as error starts coming "Please enter a valid, and current code." even though I am entering correct code. The Grant T doing everything to give a safe passage to Cryptopia and loot it's customers

  @Angeliki_T1 @RobinhoodApp In my experience, whether you self custody or use a centralized exchange, it has never hurt to sign up. Whether or not I send my BTC there is a whole different matter. Until every bank is an outlet I choose to support those that have opted to try. Much Love Cryptopia. 🧡

  [Crypto used to be a much harder game to play] Ansem looks back at the early days of crypto and the risks traders faced before today’s infrastructure existed. “We were getting ******* wrecked trading on Bittrex, trading on Cryptopia.” “You would sometimes send Bitcoin through the exchanges and not even know if it was going to show up.” “In 2013 and 2014 you had to download .exe files to buy the coins.” There were sketchy exchanges, broken UIs, unreliable deposits, and plenty of ways to lose money before even making a trade. EtherDelta could turn a simple order into a costly mistake, while early users sometimes had to download executable files just to access new tokens. Today’s onchain traders deal with bundlers, copy traders, and intense competition. Back then, the infrastructure itself was part of the risk. The market may be more competitive today, but early crypto was survival mode. w/ @blknoiz06

  @blknoiz06 Ltc Pairs on cryptopia, ICO vamps and fakes on etherdelta to this day the worst UX in all of tek ( catching wrong 0’s still goated though ) wanchain and bundled scams. Inaccessible “launchpads” that where more rigged than any whitelist and seed round nowadays. Actual devs booby trapping any pow coin so not only you got rugged, your whole stack ( and pc with all your info tbh ) could get drained in an instant. I had ( and still hold somwhere ) a dozen chromebocks all labeled “biohazard” for experiments. Alqo still goated and made me though. Now you just burn one of your million hot wallets and move on. Paper wallets. Actual paper wallets you had to print. Yes. With a physical printer. “Dev died” a lot more back then too. Then you had 2020 summer of defi where all of that got sped up 100x on the EVM. Booby traps and liquidity deains and exploits everywhere. Plus you actually had to THINK. Not fnf fortnite style, think and tinker and try and take a leap of faith at some point. I remember the rabbithole launch night of YFI launch, having to try Compound and Balancer and a hlaf a dozen protocols and feeling like Einstain and Columbus and Tesla all wrapped up in one. A new world being disocvered. And we didn’t have the tooling we have now, you either had very, very good dev friends who also never slept, or you got ****** at every move and just gambled with it all. Nah it wasn’t ******* easy. And the plumbers where ******* ninjas I guess. And it WAS romantic. And exciting. And everything else you can think of. I have stories for days, I haven’t even srmcratxhed the surface. Could fill a book with it and at some point I might. I am forever grateful and forever broken because of this decade. It has been the most stimulating and wild environment my kid self could ever imagine.

  @csin02 @abetrade To be fair: 1) I own 0 BTC that I have access to (9 or so on cryptopia) 2) Mini-brands is just some random ****. Didn't realise they ventured into $BTC. She actually got $BTC and pop-tarts... basically me.

  If it were a DeFi stable coin, the DAO could say **** it here is everyone's 90 cents. But companies don't do that and just go for bankruptcy protection and funds get locked and so on. For example Cryptopia exchange was hacked and the crooked liquidators stole more than the hacker

  @TuurDemeester Hack, is the same thing right? This was a hack of the system. So this is a new leak that has to be solved. I had trust issue’s with exchanges any ways…. Cryptopia same same. This is just a different hack of the system from within that has to be solved in order to grow trust.
