Have You Ever Wanted to Sell or Buy a Crypto Currency When the Wallet was in Maintenance Mode on Bittrex?

One of the most frustrating things for me as an early crypto currency trader was the inability for me to sell when a token was crashing while the wallet for that token was under maintenance. Yet, I could see that people were still buying and selling because of the price movement. I used to think there was a scam going on at Bittrex.

Then a friend enlightened me on how trades are still accomplished while a wallet is in maintenance mode.

What Maintenance Mode Looks Like on Bittrex.

Good info. I was able to trade on Bittrex when coin wallets were under maintenance both buy and sell...you just can't send them off the exchange and on to your personal wallet.

Thank you for this. I had this situation yesterday and had no clue!

Awesome, see the Universe is listening!

The same here , very good post indeed. Upvoted and following for more.

Nice post @hilarski, very informal like always! I like how you used ANTSHARES in your example.... I am very bullish on that crypto for many reasons, but for one it the one of the few cryptos allowed to be traded in china.

^^^UPVOTED^^^

I made an absolute killing on ANS the other day. In and out 2X for a nice take home.

Eyyy good deal!! I think long term it is going to be over 10$

Great tip, I love Bittrex and had no idea this worked!

I was afraid of trading my coins when the wallet was in maintenance, i thought i could loose the coins...

Nope, just can't transfer.

But i can trade to other coin and transfer that other coin? haha...

I followed you in order to get good tips and no regrets as your posts adds value. I had this issue before and no more worries due to your tips. Thanks for this and keep it up...Dont forget to stay in touch

Wow, nice tip. Thanks for sharing it with us!

Thx for this - love bittrex and how it functions.....and this helps get around what looks like a no-entry :-)

These days I found myself getting more involved in bittrex trading rather than poloniex since there are so many issues with the latter and also due to bittrex stable platform so far.
Thanks for such an informative post and hope you did had a great father day

I will use this tip as soon as i see my wallet under maintenance. Thank you for sharing man :-)

Thank you for this very useful information.

Thanks for the information! I just opened a Bittrex account, but I haven't used it yet. Do you like it? Does it work well?

It is by far my favorite because it is simple.

Thanks so much for your valuable input here. This is really helping a lot of beginners to get into to crypto and voids mistakes etc. Thanks again @hilarski

Thank you so much for the info! i was frustrated not to be able to make my trade while it crashing time! very useful information! but what really happening with Bittrex? i have this error message : Wallet offline - Blockchain congestion detected ?

Pretty sure all exchanges let you trade when wallet is under maintenance, you just can't withdraw/deposit.

Thanks for the tip. I used to be a poloniex only guy, but I live in WA state and they recently banned Poloniex for WA users.. so I had to move to Bittrex. I like it, just wish the volume was higher, but I bet in time it'll get there!!

Thank you for sharing, this is so valuable! :)

thanks good information

Good share! No idea why I didn't think to share this. I ran into the wallet maintenance issue couple weeks back and stumbled into what you did above, which at the time felt like a huge sigh of relief.

When it's time for me to sell something, I want to be able to sell!

A few weeks ago this happened to me with ZenCash. I wanted out desperately and a buddy showed it to me. Boom, stress level normalized.

For real - from frustration to relief in no time flat!

You shoulda stayed in ZenCash. Good news is that it's even cheaper to get in now!

I have been in and out of Zen about 10 times. It sure is fun to trade.

Keep some on the side, it's going to go up. :)

Ironically it is happening with ETH right at this moment!

Thanks for sharing this interesting information, i had faced the similar situation at poloniex some time back....

This is what I was looking at
Thank you so much @hilarski

hm, that is interesting, but I imagine that the volume will be quite low when that happens.

Anyways, it is good to know if you need to sell/buy

Gold Information for Beginners, good job @hilarski!!!

thanks for sharing...I saw this message on my account's screen and was thinking of raising a support ticket.

No need, trade like usual just know the volume will be lower.

sure thanks again.

I havent tried Bittrex yet. I do most of my trades via poloniex. Is one better than the other?

I hear Poloniex horror stories constantly. Bittrex is pretty stable, no issues in 4 years.

Good tip. Ill consider moving my portfolio. What's happening with Poloniex are mostly performanc issues. Unfulfilled orders, closure of the chatbox etc

I have wondered about this! That makes my stress level decrease knowing this!

Awsome!!! so... what do you think is the best GMT to trade??? China business time?!

I trade whenever I am awake and set orders during time to sleep.

Do you think it's a good time to get in to bitcoin? or can i wait for a dump?

Always be buying that way you don't care about the price entry.

For what is my experience, all the main exchanges, let you trade, also if the wallets are in maintenance, obvious in the period of maintenance you can't deposit or withdraw, but all the trading functions remains active... and this is valid for poloniex, cryptopia, yobit, bitstamp, etc. etc.

It's funny how the "wallet is under maintenance" shows up when the market spikes or drops.

Yup, funny how that is. Bastards need to be escorted to a back alley.

wait, am i missing something, I can trade in Poloniex even though the wallet for that token is disabled

This is Bittrex only.

This is just pure gold!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼💯

Thank you Charles!

Oh cool, good to know, I'd be clueless!

Love it! Conversely, you can also go to any market screen for any coin and change the end of the string to the ticker symbol for the coin in maintenance...

https://bittrex.com/Market/Index?MarketName=BTC-XRP

and just remove XRP and insert ETH right on the address bar and you can fly right into the market view!

Thanks for your tip though, my way was the only way I had figured out to accomplish this until your post

Perfect!! Thank you that makes it easy as well.

thanks for sharing!

Great info, thanks! Will be following!

How do you like trading on their platform?

@hilarski , there are several sites similar to Bitterx.

But, how do you measure the Trust and other co-related stuffs?
I mean, how you trust them?

Meanwhile, I shared a Hilarious Interview Where Isaac Asimov Predicted These Things, in around 1875, that turned into reality, in the 20s.

Please, check it out and share your thoughts.

Thats good to know. Tank you!

Thanx! Very useful info! Just started using bittrex, this will come in handy!
