Kraken Support Not Replying
Ive never used that exchange but people claim to not have tickets replied since long time. Luckily as ive reported lately Poloniex stepped up and fix all ticket issues now. Hopefully Kraken does that soon too.
Interesting that when i scroll down main page of Kraken and click on "Support" link i get to dead page [edit seems fixed now]
Support link is located here - https://support.kraken.com/hc/en-us

Electrum Testing Chain Split
If you follow my blog or BTC news you may be aware that on 1st August its possible BTC will split into 2 chains. Exchanges and wallets are now working on a way to detect the split and act accordingly. First one to publicly admit their tests was electrum - for which i have done some guides here before. Interesting times incoming people.
Blockchain.info raises 40 Million Funding
The most known and possibly most hated online wallet just runned series B of funding and got 40 millions. I always suggest to use wallets that let you have your keys - if you store coins in exchange or wallet - they own the coins not you. Anyways with the money hopefully they will develop some cool stuff. Worth noting they didnt do ICO like everybody now. Just usual fundraising from VCs.
Today Top Volume Exchanges
ETH LTC and ANS are rocking it for now, USD on good place too but fiat pair of KRW is on top.

Apparently poloniex has like 600% gain of new users in the 1st quarter of this year so there tickets are backed up hench why they removed the troll box and got the moderators to help with the tickets. Warning to any new poloniex users .. it's will probably take you ages to verify your account for any withdrawal so beware!!

Perhaps I can add a bit about Kraken: They have a good website and the automated verification system is good enough. But if for some reason you end up needing Support, you're screwed.
With me they took two weeks to answer with an automated email that essentially said "If you still need help please send another ticket, if not, good for you".
However, most exchanges are struggling like that. Just a lot of people joining the scene. In general it's best to avoid Support as much as you can. And if you do have to talk to someone, remember to be polite, that alone will probably move you higher in the queue.
Do you think this will improve soon?

The fact that they paid everyone back highlights the value they place on their customers and on the business. That is something Mt. Gox couldn't and didn't seem to want to get involved with. I was one of many who lost 1/3 of my Bitcoin holdings on Bitfinex and I've been pleasantly surprised with how well they managed the situation. Hacks will continue to happen in the wild wild west world of crypto for some time to come. Just have to be on the lookout for valid players in the space. I certainly believe in Bitfinex and Coinbase at this point

Its good to know your opinion of Bitfinex. I didn't have a Bitfinex account when they were hacked so I didn't lose anything. My premise was that they would be safer after being hacked because they would up their anti-hacking capabilities after that.

Certainly true. One price we all pay regardless is that price takes a hit in the short term when these things happen. But it's better for it to happen now then when the space is much much larger in the future. Though, I'm sure this will always be a constant battle and we'll just have to deal with volatility for the foreseeable mid term as the space matures beyond being considered a "bubble" and "ponzi scheme" as the mass media and banks like to highlight

This is a drawback for new people investing. All these companies with the struggles like they are having. It scares people when they read about things like these. And they flip out too soon after something goes wrong. Instead of giving it time like it often needs. I'm scared to leave my coins in jaxx, and scared to leave them in polo, I hear bad stories wbout everything else. But now I'm moving it all to bitshares. If Dan made it, I have to trust it. Can't be worse then all the other scary places my money is right now. Steemit seems like the safest place to keep money to me. Sorry for the long winded response!

Thanks for your post! I bought ETH on Kraken when it was 7 USD. One day I forgot my password and set a new one and then they wanted to see my ID. I forgot about it and though 'I will send it if I want to withdrawal my ETH later.
Now the ETH is worth a lot of money and about 2 months ago I wanted to send it to my hardware wallet to secure it better. My withdrawal got canceled and I send a support ticket. I didn't get an answer, only an excuse that they were busy. I tried it another several times, but without succes.
Then about 1 month ago I felt ETH is overvalued and wanted to trade a part back for BTC. I couldn't trade also and my support didn't get answered too.
Then I tried to send it to my hardware wallet again a few weeks ago, my withdrawals are on hold till today and I cannot do anything. It is really annoying, because I want to take profit on my ETH, I expect a big crash anytime soon. If this happens they make me loose a lot of money!

I'm curious, why would you feel ETH is overvalued at $300? Do you think BTC is overvalued at $2700?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
I think BTC is undervalued and ETH is overvalued at the moment. Bitcoin has seen a solid rise since 1014 and is just a little bit more than doubled since the previous ATH. Furthermore the scaling debate has pushed the price down over the last years. Also the mainstream media is always negative about BTC, while ETH is hyped. I think many people underestimate the strength of 2nd layers on BTC after Segwit gets finally implemented. This could suck all the money invested in alts back to BTC.
ETH is for sure very interesting, but more than 15 times rise in price after it's previous ATH is a lot and the security of the ETH blockchain is a joke. Further I expect scaling or security problems to pop up in ETH and seen the recent rise in price there is not much needed to cause panic = crash.
Also RSK is coming soon and could be serious competition if their promise is true (faster, cheaper and more secure).
I will sell half of my ETH for BTC and keep the rest for long term.

Negative, bitcoin prices are currently fluctuating but it's very steady. I still wish I would've invested back in 2012 when bitcoin currency could be purchased for $12 each. Now, you can sell one for $2.6k. Talk about return on investment😅
Mt. Gox wasn't prepared at all to handle a billion dollar asset, but I believe Bitfinex has the tools necessary and are steadily increasing their infrastructure.

Already heard a lot of positive feedback about BitPay but guess they are taking it to the next level with the App. Will they also make it for iOS and Android?

Cryptocurrency doesn't need any regulations but exchanges should be under regulations and fully accountable for their business conduct. Period. Upvoted!

If we start regulating exchanges then we start down the path of regulating cryptos. Exchanges will not take risks unless they can pass them on.

Nice to know about Bitpay has come to Windows phone and also nice to hear about electrum testing. I hope they're testing multiple different scenarios, I think we could see more than one fork

Hello. Pleased to meet you.
Sorry to hijack you comments but I came across this post here that you recently upvoted. Well it's actually plagiarized content originally from here. Looking at the upvotes on the post and his Steemd page it looks like you were one of the top voters. So thought that it was worth mentioning it to you.
Sorry for being that guy I don't like to be but as I'm also an original content creator that's been on the platform for a few months now I feel a responsibility to Steemit and the community to say something. Even more so now that that post is worth nearly $70.
Anyway, I hope you didn't mind me mentioning it to you. Sorry for the inconvenience. Have a good weekend.

I think Kracken has fired their support staff because I was in the process of getting a level three verification and suddenly correspondence completely stopped. I went on the website to resubmit some documents and the link no longer worked.
They are an awful exchange anyways... very little liquidity and very few coins to trade.
I think they gimmicked a lot of people with the lure of 5X margin limits

@kingscrown I have issues both with kraken and poloniex.
It took for ever to get my fiat released even though I was verified. Also their support wasn't responsive at all. Took 2 weeks to get things sorted out.
Also poloniex has not been responding to tickets for days now but I guess that's due to the eth backlogg so ticket volume has probably gone through the roof.
My kraken experience was probably the worse of the 2. I am definitely loosing faith in the exchanges.
Does anybody know a great exchange that responds promptly to tickets?

My favorite exchange for customer service is Lykke Exchange. But this is probably because you can only buy ETH and BTC there for crypto, but you can trade some Forex pairs and also buy metals.
To give you guys an example - some users were recently hacked there because they had the same password on Lykke as elsewhere. Lykke reimbursed them with their reserve fund. They did this back in the day when the Swiss Franc was unpegged via OANDA as well. I highly suggest checking them out - ERC20 support incoming this summer.

Perhaps I can add a bit about Kraken: They have a good website and the automated verification system is good enough. But if for some reason you end up needing Support, you're screwed.
With me they took two weeks to answer with an automated email that essentially said "If you still need help please send another ticket, if not, good for you".
However, most exchanges are struggling like that. Just a lot of people joining the scene. In general it's best to avoid Support as much as you can. And if you do have to talk to someone, remember to be polite, that alone will probably move you higher in the queue.
Do you think this will improve soon?
Thanks for sharing!

Interesting news. I have had no issues with Kraken but I notice that Poloniex have still disabled withdrawals or Steem and SBD without any kind of notice. I tried to buy the other day, before the fork and only when I came to withdraw did I notice this. Hopefully it will be lifted soon.

Sometimes it can be a bit scary to be investing in crypto. With some of some of these companies like Kraken. I hope this is not the first sign of the same thing happening to it like Mt Gox

It is best for Steem and SBD to use the exchange Bittrex. The least overlapping

You can do paper wallets using other wallets not just blockchain.info. Why put your cryptos at risk just because of "cool" features.

Poloniex hasnt fixed any of my tickets and they are over a month old. They are just holding my coins and I cant withdraw them. No replies whatsoever.
Kraken has been working excellent with crypto transfers for me, but slow with FIAT. Still they do answer.

Hey,
I had the same issue when funds were not showing in my account. [email protected] came back to me only after I went on their twitter account and sent them a DM with my ticket number.
Try the same if anyone gets stuck, I was responded to within 4 hours.

Kraken welllll i dont know if i would put my investment there. I had an account on Cavirtex that was absorbed by Kraken. So funny, managed to log in only one time the interface is just ugly an super complex, confusing anyways couple weeks later tried to log in and got the account disabled LOL.
Contacted support which can only be done on the site by the way. They got back to me 2 months later asking whats the problem. Sent hem all the info 2 months later recieved another email asking for all my personal info, sent that out. It's now 14 months. I should really just open a new account :)

Hey @kingscrown, thanks for the info.
I had to wait weeks for tier 2 verification on Kraken. I'm not impressed at the lack of support and can't trust them.
I use poloniex for the moment... I'm enjoying 'playing on the market' with the small amount I have right now.
Followed and I'll keep watching your advice. Thanks again!
