Kaiz 🐂🀄️ (@Kaiz_294) reported[Crypto used to be a much harder game to play] Ansem looks back at the early days of crypto and the risks traders faced before today’s infrastructure existed. “We were getting ******* wrecked trading on Bittrex, trading on Cryptopia.” “You would sometimes send Bitcoin through the exchanges and not even know if it was going to show up.” “In 2013 and 2014 you had to download .exe files to buy the coins.” There were sketchy exchanges, broken UIs, unreliable deposits, and plenty of ways to lose money before even making a trade. EtherDelta could turn a simple order into a costly mistake, while early users sometimes had to download executable files just to access new tokens. Today’s onchain traders deal with bundlers, copy traders, and intense competition. Back then, the infrastructure itself was part of the risk. The market may be more competitive today, but early crypto was survival mode. w/ @blknoiz06

Ori Al-Sirr (@OriAlSirr) reported🔑 Insights Scams (2016–2019): Mostly Ponzi schemes and fake projects (Bitconnect, OneCoin, PlusToken). Mismanagement/Hacks (2014–2019): Weak custody led to catastrophic hacks (Mt. Gox, Cryptopia). Leverage & Risk (2022): A wave of collapses tied to contagion from Terra/LUNA and 3AC, exposing reckless lending practices. Fraud (2022): FTX revealed how lack of transparency and misuse of customer funds can devastate the entire ecosystem. @RichardHeartWin

🩸Don Kane (@TheDonKane) reportedI started using Cryptopia and probably bought like half the coins listed on that exchange. The problem was alot of these coins weren't supported by the big crypto wallet companies so I had to keep most of them on Cryptopia. Further, I had no clue what counterparty risk was

CSM Flynt (@Csmflynt3Jeff) reported@WatcherGuru This guy left his coins on cryptopia way back, and now he is mad as hell. He will burn it all down for the rest of us... 🤡

Hizzim (@_hizzim) reported@TylerDurden @EtherDelta @Cryptopia_NZ Cryptopia wasn't a DEX was it? Hence the **** show of a legal case that still isn't resolved

simone (@sawlls) reportedAnd let's not forget about exchange insolvency. In Jan 2019, the New Zealand-based #crypto exchange Cryptopia went into liquidation, leaving customers without access to their funds

Rizzy (@0xrizzyy) reportedI’ll pull the real history on each exchange. I remember a story back then for every one of those names: • MintPal got hacked, then “saved” by a guy calling himself Alex Green. A few weeks later the BTC was gone, the site was gone, and Alex Green was just Ryan Kennedy with a new name. People were watching their coins walk out of a wallet that was supposed to be cold storage. • EtherDelta was supposed to be the opposite of that. No custody. Your keys. Then someone hijacked the DNS, stood up a clone site, and users typed their keys into a fake homepage. One person lost around $800k before anyone even noticed the chat button was missing. • Cryptopia got hit in January 2019. Site goes into maintenance. Then liquidation. Then years of Grant Thornton emails, claim portals, and people still waiting while lawyers argued over whether their coins were even theirs. Some finally got a distribution years later. • Poloniex was the altcoin casino everyone used. Then it socialized losses, Circle bought it, Circle dumped it, US users got kicked, and the brand kept changing hands until it barely looked like the same place. • Bittrex lasted longer than most. Then the SEC showed up, the US arm wound down, Global went into liquidation, and customers were filling out proof-of-debt forms for balances they used to withdraw with one click. That was the game. You left coins on an exchange and hoped the website came back tomorrow. We have come a long way.

Mikey - Cranky Crypto Geezer (@OldManMikey1) reported@Decentralizd Cryptopia was my go to for awhile. Fortunately, didn’t have much worth holding on to when it shut down. Was playing with Pennies back in those days.

Sly ₿itcoin ⚡ (@SlyBitcoin) reportedWe need some good news for #bitcoin. I was around for 2017 bear market. This one seems way worse to me. I think because last bear market it was just price go down and ICO's getting shut down and small exchanges like Cryptopia. This time its horrible news and massive collapses.
-
Dipz (@Dipz_21) reported@CryptosBatman Dude I bought 25$ worth of that ****, probably in cryptopia or something, and at the bottom was worth like 2$ and sold it, thinking that **** was worthless, it was the best performing alt in 2020-2021 and 1000$ at the bottom would be worth millions

₿ (@eyewareness) reported@Thecryptomist Cryptopia was the ****

Dr. Olawale Daniel (@DrOlawaleDaniel) reportedThe only real #Cryptopia platform I am aware of since 2014 is @Cryptopia_NZ and they went down with our funds as they declared bankruptcy or liquidation. So, you people claiming another platform is helping you recover funds or anything, better be careful. Do research!

Jeff Asher (@JeffAsher16) reported@PLAYBOY67990 @Ashcryptoreal Take the proof to @Hector099_eth I'm pretty sure he can do something about this since he has been helping others with the same problem with Ftx, Celsius and cryptopia exchange

Burbano (@Burban0o) reportedBut in truth, if binance goes down like how cryptopia did, crypto would enter the biggest bear market ever recorded. So let’s just hope the rumors are fake.

Louise Ivan (@louiseivan) reportedI LOST 2.3 BTC BECAUSE I WAS LOCKED OUT OF EXCHANGES. Cryptopia and Bittrex both left me locked out of my own coins before. Different years, same script every cycle. BitMEX shuts down September 23. BitMart halts all trading August 26 and closes for good in January. Neither one got hacked. They looked at the numbers, decided the business wasn't worth running, and now every balance sitting on those platforms has a deadline someone else picked. That's the part people keep missing. You don't need a collapse to lose access to your money like FTX. You need a wind-down notice, a compliance review, and a withdrawal queue longer than the window you were given. BitMart is already warning users that withdrawals may get pulled into manual KYC and source-of-funds checks. This is why @RyderWallet exists. 2.3 BTC taught me the lesson, we made it our mission to protect people after we felt the same pain. Move your assets while moving them is still your decision. We are here to help. We are providing 20% off to Ryder One with code SUMMER20.

CryptoTripper (@TheCryptoRipper) reported@crypto_bitlord7 Remember back when Nova shut down. Kind of same reasoning, I would say. Plenty of exchanges had to close.. The one I really miss is cryptopia but that was some inside hack bullshit..

Fungibles (@fungibIes) reported@gainzy222 we held we held in ICO’s that didn’t happen and in promises made by **** exchange’s (ex: cryptopia) also im still retarted

Matrix⚡️ (@MatrixXBT) reported@Cryptopia13 @CloutedMind why are u even calling yourself cryptopia and have web3 in your bio if u think its all nonsense and greater fool theory ? also our argumentation wasnt about if there is more risk and prices may go down more because of btc treasury companies. if its all nonsense for u

gone crypto 1/333 🦇🔊 (@favudom) reportedI have been in crypto for over 10 years. The best advice i can give you is to spread your holdings over several exchanges. My portfolio is spread as followed, to minimize risks: 20% MtGox 20% BTC-E 20% Cryptsy 20% Cryptopia 20% FTX Plan is to log in and cash out in 5 years.

Titi Mentor | Noya (@titimentor) reportedIt's unfortunate that some of us don't learn after hearing several terrible stories about leaving funds in CEX. QuadrigaCX, cryptopia, and more others. I, myself is one of the unlucky people who have funds in FTX. Dear crypto frens, avoid leaving huge sums or any money that would affect you in CEX, no matter their credibility. Making money and losing it to hack or theft or some shady action is more painful than losing it to "investment gone wrong." WAGMI
