I used to like HitBTC but now it just seems like one thing after the other. I was recently alerted to this one coin they listed on Coinmarketcap under Presearch using the ticker PRE.
So people would be redirected from there to PRE on HitBTC. Only one problem with that... The coin that HitBTC linked to from Coinmarketcap is not actually Presearch. In fact, I couldn't find any information on the coin they named Premine when looking in the tab under the PRE ticker.
They have changed the ticker now to PRS but CoinExchange still used PRE. Either way you look at it this is an exchange that has no issues whatsoever about scamming its customers.
I still have a few holdings on HitBTC but those are definintely going to Bittrex after seeing this one. And I don't think I would move back even if they reimbursed all the customers they scammed because this appears to be something that is perfectly acceptable to HitBTC. Just look at the thread on this matter over in their forum:
