Poloniex does not have any obligation to engage in activity in relation to attacks on blockchain networks. Poloniex makes no representation and does not warrant the safety of the Platform and is not liable for any lost value or stolen property, whether or not Poloniex was negligent in providing the proper security. POLONIEX is not responsible to what happens to your coins and can suspend the service in case of a cyber attack at any time and leave you out in the cold.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, POLONIEX SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR TORT DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS) IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF POLONIEX HAS BEEN ADVISED OR IS AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL POLONIEX’S LIABILITY FOR MONEY DAMAGES UNDER THESE TERMS EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES RECEIVED FROM YOU DURING THE PRECEDING SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD.
Now, I am not saying that POLONIEX is insolvent or has been hacked or any of this. But the last time we saw that many red-flags was when Mount Gox went belly-up in 2014 because of an undisclosed cyber-attack that robbed the exchange of 744,408 bitcoins, rendering it insolvent and unable to oblige withdrawals.
