I have an up to date wallet but my 2000 coins are missing from bittrex withdrawal.

Bittrex is on the wrong (short) fork. Their wallet is disabled for few days already, so I assume you did this withdrawal about a week ago. I also have coins on Bittrex, but didn't withdraw them, as I tried with small amount first, and saw them going nowhere. We can only hope Bittrex will re-sync to the correct (long) chain and resend the transactions. You could open a ticket with them. I have one opened ticket, they were answering initially, but after I offered them my help with re-syncing to the correct chain, I got nothing in reply. Hope they don't just discard our coins after they delist the wallet. Undecided Bug them, so they don't do it

Thanks for the reply. I've already withdrawn the coins, are they lost forever? What if I sync the short chain wallet? Can I recover my coins then?

No, syncing to short chain is not a way to go... You would get your coins that way, but will be unable to send them to wallets on the long chain.
I don't know whether you lose your coins or not. I don't even know whether I will get my coins out of Bittrex or not. That all depends on Bittrex and their good will. One thing I know for sure - they definitely can re-send your coins to you after they re-sync to the correct chain. Technically your coins are not lost (just because coins cannot be lost on a blockchain), they are still in the Bittrex wallet Smiley

Hey. It's hard to find my last post where I quoted you atm because I'm on my phone. But could you please have a look out for it? We have 8bit slack and telegram and we want to bug Bittrex to relist 8bit. What should we tell them? Can you join us?

Thanks!
