Blocktrades Temporarily UnavailablesteemCreated with Sketch.

in blocktrades •  7 years ago 

This morning I noticed while attempting to trade my steem dollars for steem so that I could invest in more steem power (SP) that the blocktrades exchange was down.

I'm not sure what kind of technical problems are going on but I'm sure they'll get these issues sorted out soon enough.

Yesterday, there were some problems on the site as the option to convert steem wasn't available.

Here's a quick screen shot.

it's not something new.. it happens all the time and gets fixed after some time.. so just be patience

Just putting a heads up out there for those who may be wondering what's going on, I'm well aware that this is nothing new as I've seen it happen a couple of times in the past week.

I was wondering what the deal with that was

Same here, I noticed the site being down twice in the last few days. Looks to be an ongoing issue with the site, as I was looking around and found a post from seven months ago where someone was having the same problem. - https://steemit.com/steem/@cryptovest/can-t-buy-steem-with-blocktrades-anyone-else-having-same-issue

Maybe the site is overloaded with transactions? I really don't know what it could be other than that.

As of 7:24 A.M. EST, Blocktrades is up and running again!
