You're late to the party lol. The reason they went down from being the top exchange some time in 2017 was because they suddenly enforced KYC among users and prevented withdrawals of many accounts. I remember some migrated to exchanges like Cryptopia but most of their users moved to Binance as they don't immediately ask KYC unless your withdrawal is 2 BTC above...
Thanks for the Info! so in other words i'm screwed? Feel like an exchange scammed me, gave me an IOU note that i can not use.
Actually, get your founds out of
exchanges in general if you don't like submitting AML/KYC. It's pretty much inevitable for exchanges to be requiring these documents anyway, it's mostly just a matter of when. Slooowly but surely.
Also, can't believe I have to say this in late 2020: NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR COINS.
https://notyourkeys.orgI know that... and I feel like an idiot as I lost btc in Mtgox... I guess I keep repeating the same mistakes
