I suppose Bter is running on fractional reserve for TIPS. They are having less TIPS in their pockets than all account credits show, due to the fork. Bad thing is, that Bter is the only TIPS exchange with relevant volume.
i send some TIPS to cryptopia today, 12 hours and no credited to my account yet.
the transfer problem are only in exchanges.
Cryptopia TIPS wallet is in maintenance. Your deposit should be there once the wallet comes out of maintenance.
I contacted Cryptopia yesterday for an ETA of re-enabling the TIPS wallet, but they were unable to give an estimate.
