I've been paid back 0.0112 BTC of a total 0.1150 BTC loss. As far as I can remember, there's only been one payment, and it would have been more than a year ago.


So they've started paying back, but very very slowly. Sad

Looks to me like they made one small payment in hopes it would increase volume and when it didn't they just stopped and left the site up with no support or oversight. The real scam is the fake volume that lures people in and from what I read the high withdrawel cost when those ppeople find out they cannot trade

The withdrawal fee for Bitcoin (and Litecoin as well if I'm correct) remains the same as before the hack and equals 100k satoshi. In respect to other coins, they are now giving 1% bonus on deposits (at least for dogecoins). It doesn't matter whether your trades were profitable or not, they are still taking away the same percentage on withdrawals of these coins. I don't quite understand the logic behind this novelty, but I can say with certainty that it didn't help them. It could make sense for arbitrage if there were active trading at this exchange...

But since there is no active trading by any meaningful measure, it doesn't really matter
