Poloniex says that they never agreed to participate in the giveaway. That's quite shitty as I'm sure many people deposited bitcoin or refrained from withdrawing with the understanding that Poloniex would participate, now those people will be unable to use that bitcoin to claim Lumens.

The question is, will Poloniex claim the Lumens or will it just go to the organization? This mistake may lead to the organization earning a significantly larger share of the giveaway, maybe it wasn't such an accident? Maybe Poloniex or the Stellar Organization will find a way to reconcile this?

Well that is a pain in the ass if I knew Poloniex wasn't supporting the giveaway I would have moved those coins to a different wallet for a day, I presumed they would fasttrack it via the giveaway function.
They had more than enough time to tell people that so I sense scam in a sense that they delayed the release to prevent movement of withdrawals.

just make sure they don't claim for themselves Grin

Sure, they will claim for themselves.

Why do you withdraw your BTC to Poloniex ?
Evereybody says exchnages are not secure and not sure : one more proof.

It's a trading balance so it makes sense to keep that amount around wouldn't be a problem usually but ya true enough Mintpal and others teach ya not to keep to much in there just enough to operate ^^.
