Why were those liquidators with a bad reputation appointed anyway?
OK - I've got money lost at CRYptopia too. And I'm not happy about it.
But Grant Thorton is not a "bad reputation" company. It's a major global accounting services firm with a very good global reputation. While no one is happy, it takes years to settle a liquidation. Nothing you can do but wait.
Lesson learned - not your keys, not your coins. if you leave coins at an exchange, it's on you.
Of course, every trader knows all this it's one of the rules of the thumb, do not leave or use addresses coming from the exchange it's a big no, but trader have to allocate funds to put on a sell order, in case there is a pump ongoing, you cannot be online 24 hours a day just to get if, the price that you want to sell your coins are already being hit, you put the sell order to make a future profit not leaving your coins because you don't have wallet for those coins.
