Ethereum Classic

27.07.16 19:52 from admin

Dear Clients!

BTC-e’s official standpoint on this issue is as follows: Ethereum Classic in the current circumstances is a scam. The Ethereum community decided to implement the hardfork in order to switch to the new chain. All major pools and exchanges (including BTC-e) did exactly that.

On the second day after the start of ETC trading BTC-e received a notification from Poloniex, saying that we need to secure the ETCs in our ETH wallet. At the time of notification, most of these coins have already been sent to Poloniex by our users. So there were almost none of these coins in our wallet.

We continue to receive requests from our customers demanding to return the ETCs that are supposedly deposited in our ETH wallet. We cannot do that for the reason specified above.

Anyone, who purports that we sent the coins to Poloniex in order to sell them, can check all the transactions on blockchain. All transactions are recorded and it is easy to trace the sender and the volumes of coins sent.

Best Regards,
BTC-e Team

jubalix: after they sit down and think it through

rsilva11: I can tell by what happened

jubalix: well yes and no...if they are on the ball they could have moved all the etc right after fork to a new address and then credit indicudual holders...prety straight forward

rsilva11: so basicly in the end the only thing that happened is some got free coins and some did not. really had no effect on eth

rsilva11: jubalix, blame finex also then

rsilva11: jubalix, my point is it was a poorly executed launch to a coin. the develpoers should have seen this coming

salimkhan215: it will never be too late to claim your free coins, just a matter of working the clients

jubalix: rsilva11, its not about blame, itso about haveing your eye on the ball if you want to look pro and attract business....

jubalix: that is acheived either by being on the ball much like polo has been, or compensateing

rsilva11: jubalix, I dont believe they wanted to adopt a new coin like that

salimkhan215: sadly polo is the only exchange which follows this failed ethereum experiment

rsilva11: niether did finex and others and the developers should have expected that

salimkhan215: coinbase has issued a statement on Etc, they will not be adding it and all the customer etc are stored for future

djthistle01: JoseVV, you still around?

rsilva11: lol

zoejhayne: face its. adding etc is conflict of interest to etc.

rsilva11: i doubt it, they are in the same situation

zoejhayne: eth i mean

salimkhan215: nothing wrong with being a hypocrite

djthistle01: so wtf is going on with etc & bcte.....the wallet got drained and none are left?

salimkhan215: check the official statement

djthistle01: salimkhan215, i read that but seen on reddit about a reply attack

salimkhan215: I stay away from reddit

salimkhan215: I heard reddit is starting ads on certain user posts

salimkhan215: they will go the way of digg.com, if you remember that

djthistle01: salimkhan215, https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/758847731548893188

djthistle01: salimkhan215, i'm more of a trader than techy, but to me btc is solid right? so if they effed up with etc that is too bad for us.

djthistle01: that's how i read it without the fear.

djthistle01: mongering

salimkhan215: insolvent in eth or etc or everything?

djthistle01: i imagine etc

salimkhan215: lol oh well, i got my etc on polo

djthistle01: salimkhan215, https://www.reddit.com/r/EthereumClassic/comments/4v2d6j/btce_dear_clients_btces_official_standpoint_on/d5v2f3t

djthistle01: he shows some wallet stuff

salimkhan215: w/e i'm not looking into it

salimkhan215: they can just fork it again, call the new coin ethereum 2xclassic

djthistle01: salimkhan215, werd up. i was just wondering about btc. if it is just eth then fine. but if they have to use btc to buy eth to reimburse then that's another story.

djthistle01: but as you pointed me to the official statement they seem to have zero desire to honor etc

salimkhan215: they said all the users intentionally send their coins to polo, so whats insolvent about that?

djthistle01: i dunno, like i said i am more a trader than tech guy which is why i was asking the chat.
