Fellow crypto bros, watch out from Hotbit...
If you do one mistake, one tiny little mistake, Hotbit will punish you and ask for ransom 0.2 ETH, sent to a support help desk, then Hotbit will KIDNAP your coins for 3 to 6 Months, because it's their rules!

My Hotbit support ticket is :#150256
Here is the story, i sent some BNB on the BSC chain on my BNB receiving address on Hotbit, i didnt know that Hotbit had only chain support (they updated that since then), so my BNB were never on my hotbit BNB wallet, I messaged support, they let me know i fucked up, they said pay 0.2 ETH, i paid that, they confirmed the receipt, since then NO MESSAGES, RADIO SILENCE.
It has been 1 month now, I guess i have 5 more to go, this seems like JAIL.
Hotbit puts your your coins in jail if you do one little mistake.
My guess is that use yield returns on my coins, I am pretty sure they do that to users, meanwhile kidnapping their coins.
7.2 BNB of mine are still kidnaped by Hotbit, i dont even know if i will ever get them.
I thought paying 0.2 eth fee for the mistake was enough, but no Hotbit likes to make more by using your coins to generate yield for them.

Long story short, dont use hotbit, use Probit, or coinex, or MXC, hotbit doesnt deserve your funds.

OP here,
Update:
Hotbit refunded my deposit, 8 months later, it does really feel that i got punished, but they did refund my deposit. Meaning they are probably not a scam after all, only some tight rules that actually punishes customers, what a way to deal with a customer eh ?
Long story short, i was going to sell my BNB for 250$ at the time of the “kidnapping” or “punishment” right now they are at 650$ ... it ended being more fear than damage.
I wanted to let you guys know, i got my funds back.
