BOBCAT (@bobcatbts) reported@CryptoLifer33 Rimbit.....bought using PayPal on a crowd funding website, but it had liquidity on cryptopia. It was also my first rug....
-
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!

MBA_Bitcoiner (@MBA_Bitcoiner) reported@Vikingobitcoin9 I bet if you found a good accountant you can track it all down. I get it though. I still have stuff from Cryptopia. Wouldn’t be fun, but counting your taxes with something else other than 0 is ideal.

Wolf of Electroneum ⚡️ (@wolfofetn) reportedIndeed. I'd like to think that those blue chips I mentioned are just more of an anti-inflation funds short term and retirement funds long term. I started with those 3 almost at almost at the same time but I'm still down with $ETN even with the DCA.. a big factor was Cryptopia. No one lost in $BTC and $XRP if they haven't sold. About Solana, it's just thriving on the memes as I have observed.. If ETN ever comes up with a way to make the real whales and influencers with huge following to be onboarded, then we can see growth.

Bixbite 🥪 (@iambixbite) reported@imgislost @Coinicarus @SamouraiWallet Getting Orange Pilled is a process…. I bought my first Bitcoin in 2017, then got involved in mining, then ‘day trading’ on Bittrex, Binance & Cryptopia (aka gambling on Mcafee tweets)... Then spent some time participating in DAOs on Etherum before doing DevRel for a Bitcoin L2 - that's where i learned about BitVM and ZK which lead me down the privacy rabbit hole…. so yes, i know about Samourai Wallet, but it wasn't until i was 6 years deeps. She’ll get there eventually…. Hopefully with some guidance from the community she can get there quicker. 🧡

ant (@ThisIsNuse) reportedThinking that Ordinals and Runes are dead because of a singular (and unsupportive) platform shutting down is like saying Altcoins are forever dead because BTC-E is gone Cryptsy is gone Bittrex is gone Cryptopia is gone And the list goes on infinity
-
curb.sol (@CryptoCurb) reported@skibumtrading @FBI THANK YOU! it happened to me on cryptopia and BTC-e people think this **** is not real/not possible to happen, and then it happens.
-
CryptoNite (@1crypto_knight) reported3) The positive: I was never dependent on one specific place and their offerings on coins. Blockfi, #binance #Coinbase #KuCoin where some exchanges I got on early in the game, so when Cryptopia went down it took only 5-10% of my 💰which always hurts but did not kill me
-
Crypto CHRIS (@CryptoCHRIS783) 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.

Ori Al-Sirr (@OriAlSirr) reportedScams (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

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.

Baksh the ₿eliever (@CryptoBaksh) reported@painkillerbill I lost 50 bucks on cryptopia when it shut down, my first 30 days in crypto, still hurts.
-
🩸Don Kane (@TheDonKane) reportedLuckily one wallet I had found supported DOGE and so I pulled out about half (Later sold wayyyy before top) About a year or so later Cryptopia shut down (might of been hacked, can't remember)

Altcoins Guy (@Altcoinsguy) reported🌅 GM, Crypto Fam 🚨 A hard lesson every crypto investor should learn... I've had funds stuck on multiple exchanges over the years. The first one was Cryptopia, where I lost access to $700+ after the exchange shut down in 2019. I also had funds on these exchanges before they closed: • Cryptopia • ProBit • Mercatox • BitForex • Altilly • WEX • Hotbit • IDAX 💡 Lesson learned: Never keep 100% of your crypto on a single exchange. Diversify across trusted platforms, and for long-term holdings, use a self-custody wallet whenever possible. I learned this lesson the hard way. Hopefully, you won't have to.

Samchiz.bit (@samchiz1) reported@clarnium_io @CryptopiaOFCL I read from your website that you have Cryptopia Pet which is a cat, why did you choose a cat 🐈 and are their any other pets in the Cryptopia Pets?
-
AMLBot (@AMLBotHQ) reported@CryptoCurb @FBI BTC-e was shut down for money laundering. Cryptopia died after a massive hack. Binance? Already went through every possible investigation, paid $4.3B in fines, and operates under U.S. oversight. So no — this isn’t “the next BTC-e.” This is a regulated giant, not a shadow CEX from 2017. Posts like this are pure coordinated FUD)
-
SmileyGnome (@SmileyGnome) reported@MoonOverlord Lost a couple million dogecoin on Cryptopia when they shut down.
-
Andrew McLellan Lolmaugh (@AndrewLolmaugh) reported@Angeliki_T1 @RobinhoodApp In my experience, whether you self custody or use a centralized exchange, it has never hurt to sign up. Whether or not I send my BTC there is a whole different matter. Until every bank is an outlet I choose to support those that have opted to try. Much Love Cryptopia. 🧡
-
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..
-
Brad (@darb_snurb) reportedWhen did you get into crypto? For me I thought it was Cryptopia but little did I know it was actually 2004-2005 when I jotted down the name Satoshi Nakamoto.
-
Michael Blurry (@53A7713173) reported@mertbasarmayan @whodoneit21 Bro i feel it I lost money to cryptopia and ftx. Lost eth and rare Pepe cards to a broken computer when I was newer that ended up being quite a bit. It has definitely been hard and the only edge I’ve ever found was just trading “new tech” chainlink, NFTs, celestia, ai coins, etc

Crypto King (@Cryptoking) reported from Mumbai Suburban, Maharashtra@iAmNanoowz Ugh Cryptopia they still have like 3 of my #btc but they want to know dates of trades but u can’t login!?

O•PAPAI•CHEGOU 🔸️ (@AndorinhasQ) reported@cryptonator1337 FUUUCK ,,, I ALMOST GOT BANKRUPT WHEN CRYPTOPIA SHUUTS DOWN !!

WallstreetWacko 🏦 (@WallstreetWacko) reported@CryptoCurb @skibumtrading @FBI Cryptopia for me too sadly. I just went to Binance and their domain is up and running no problems
-
cevo (@cryptocevo) reportedThe idea that crypto was “easy” back then is crazy. First, you had to make sure you didn’t have funds on Cryptopia, because one day they could just shut the exchange down. Then you had to survive the P&Ds from McAfee, OG scammers, and fight your own greed. Then came the ICO era, where you had to find the few gems while 99% of projects went straight to zero within days. After that, you had to survive years of bear market and the COVID crash. Then FTX happened. You had to make sure your funds weren’t there when that mf decided to gamble with users’ money. And even if you survived all of that, you could still lose everything on LUNA, the alt of that cycle. 6 figs went to a few cents. People remember the gains. They forget how many times you could have lost it all.

digispud 🏴 🐢 (@digispud) reported@BitPaine That's the problem with magic Internet money. It doesn't feel real, so you waste it on crap. I've never done anything as dumb as this, but I did once send a whole bitcoin to Cryptopia that I'll never see again.

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.
