But enough about him. I have a different dilemma. I've been coaching friends and relatives in Ph and elsewhere about purchasing psb at ccex since it is the only "decent" exchange I know of that trades psb -- after cryptopia. The problem is that there's something strange going on in that exchange when depositing btc in the deposit address and I myself have experienced this just recently.

While there was just 1 confirmation displayed on the deposit panel (we need at least 2 confirmations for the deposit to reflect in our balance), this confirmation number coincided with that displayed on blockchain.info (I have the habit of checking balance transfers through blockchain.info or blockr.io) but the funds were already being moved elsewhere. Take note, the funds have not yet reflected in my balance so how can they be moved elsewhere, right? Refer to screenshots:

I never use the same deposit address twice. I always generate a new address when making a new deposit. So the address I used was newly generated.

The ccex thread here at bct has reports of lost funds, some described incidents similar to mine. The only difference is that, I waited (panic-stricken) until I had two confirmations so the balance would appear on my panel, and then traded them for psb right away - else it actually gets moved out of my balance once the address it was being moved to received a confirmation.

I sent a ticket to support and also sent the ccex user in this forum a rundown of the incident. No answer regarding the incident just that the funds have been credited to my balance. So what's the point of me sharing this here? We need to get into a more decent or reputable exchange. Hope Lutzow can update us about that too.

Just a word of advice when making a deposit at ccex, track your deposit via blockchain.info or blockr.io and take screenshots. You'll be needing proof in case you experience a similar incident.

Did your deposit finally arrive? Please paste in the TXid if you want me to look at the transaction...

So far my only problem when depositing to C-Cex has been how slow deposits are to arrive; but that's Bitcoin's fault.
