That shouldn't matter. People waiting for a response regarding a deposit not showing up, cash out requests being stuck for weeks, verifications not being looked into, etc, everything points at Poloniex simply not giving a damn anymore about their customers. It might be because the owners have full pockets due to the massive previous volumes they were generating, or they are facing serious legal issues in the background that people here aren't aware of. Poloniex has always been a top exchange, but they for whatever reason got messed up big time - this definitely isn't an exchange I would people advice to join.
