Welcome! STEEM & SBD are back on Poloniex

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

In this bear market, how it feels when you get some exciting news out of the blue?

I never expected Poloniex to start STEEM & SBD deposits and withdrawals ..at least not in these days. But surprisingly Poloniex announced that it has made the Steem & SBD wallet back online. Is it a Circle effect or did Steem did something to achieve this?

Since the Steem block chain witnessed a small bug for which it was frozen for about half a day recently, Steem wallet was suspended on exchanges like Binance and Huobi too. Although Huobi made the STEEM wallet active soon, it is still suspended on Binance. So we had very limited option to transact in Steem.

Poloniex was perhaps my first exchange where I registered my crypto account but I never deposited a penny there. I was appalled by so many negative reviews about the customer service of this exchange and frequent suspension of wallets, I never looked back on it. I didn't have much hope when Circle took it over. So I almost forgot this exchange. Only last month, when suddenly SBD rates reached a record high of $200, my attention went to Poloniex.

Currently, I'm happy with Binance & Huobi, but now this news is making me to check Poloniex once again. But I don't know why its image is so negative in my mind that I'm afraid to even log in there. What if I transfer some of my Steem there and they again suspend its wallet? How can I trust these people who took almost a year to solve some technical issue with Steem blockchain!

So I thought, I should better take your recommendations. Would you like to share with me:

  • What exchanges do you use and trust?
  • Did you ever use Poloniex?
  • Will you recommend Poloniex to me?

I'll be waiting for your suggestions on this issue.

TIA!

I didnt use Poloniex before, but after what happened, who says this was the only time and the transfers won't be frozen again? Having cryptoassets frozen for weeks and months in this fast cryptoworld? Nope.

Why crypto exchanges see Steem and SBD as something unworthy thing? Why are they not seeing the potential of this platform?

No he hecho mi primer intercambio, con lo que comentas tambien, me da un poco de miedo, espero que todo me salga bien, gracias por tu informacion, espero aqui encontrare un poco de ayuda, en este post, cariños y abrazos amigo @xyzashu.

This are good news, because this will let STEEM expand more on the cryptocurrency world and this will lead it's price to a higher level!

Hello @xyzashu, what a good read.
my experience with poloniex has been null, I did not even manage to verify my account due to platform problems, or maybe I also have a lot to do with the communication problems that exist in my country (Venezuela).
Peo I have some colleagues who trade with poloniex and they did not hurt, only that the commissions are somewhat high. Then they changed to hitbtc and binance and lles has gone very well.
Particularly I work with bittrex, I have not had problems more than once with the GAME cryptocurrency portfolio, which closed it in an opportunity of the rest nothing more. With poloniex, I do not know, I could not open ...

I mostly use binance, huobi, bittrex and bitfinex.
And coinbase sometimes.

I tried poloniex before but it has a strict KYC and doesn't offer a lot of crypto or unique cryptos.
So i would recommend to use other exchanges instead.

Have an account with them and used it too in the past but i dont recommend it to anyone. Binance is much better in every respect.

I pretty much use Bittrex all the time. Once upon a time I had a Poloniex account, but it was suspended because Poloniex stopped being available to people resident in the state of Washington, due to regulations.

So I can't really say that I have enough information to "recommend" (or not) Poloniex... but it seems like they have extensively had issues with their Steem/SBD gateway over the past year, if other people's posts are anything to go by.

=^..^=

I have a Binance account but I am currently locked out of it. I also deal with BTC-Alpha. I haven't tried Poloniex yet ... do they require you to use 2FA ?

Sorry to hear that! How come you got locked out?

This are a breaking news, this will let STEEM expand more on the cryptocurrency world! excelent news
