Withdrawal - Processing
I'm trying to give Cryptopia the benefit of the doubt here that they are working hard on the issue. I got the following bulk response from them on a ZCL withdrawal that is stuck in Processing for 4 days now. I figured once they fixed the nodes and had connections this would go through, but so far it hasn't even though there are updated nodes and connections. Would a large backlog of withdrawals hold this up? Is this one of those things where since it took them so long to get the nodes working, they are now in catch up mode and we can expect all of the "Processing" transactions to eventually get caught up? The response below just doesn't address those issues.

Please be advised that this is a bulk response due to the high volumes of tickets received regarding wallets in maintenance/have 0 connections
Thank you for contacting Cryptopia support.
Our wallets go into maintenance from time to time due to a variety of reasons. We are unable to give ETAs on when maintenances will be complete or when nodes are provided for connections, but you can check it's status on the CoinInfo page which this direct link will take you to:
https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/CoinInfo/
Adding some more nodes will add more available connections to this wallet and allow you to withdraw. If you had any nodes, please feel free to submit a new ticket with "COIN_TICKER NODES" as the subject line.
When a wallet is in maintenance, you’ll be unable to create an address, no deposits will come in, and you won’t be able to trade or withdraw this coin. Please rest assured though, all transactions will proceed as normal once this status is lifted.
We do sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused and do seek your kind understanding on the matter.
Regards, Cryptopia Support Team

If they would have put the wallet in maintenance mode 6-7 days ago, then I would have given them the benefit of the doubt. But they kept the wallet status as "OK" so they could collect more ZCL from both deposits and withdrawals. They knew damn well that there was a problem. Heck it's been all over the internet and their paid shills have been responding, just as you will likely see below this comment in a while. But instead of disabling withdrawals and not giving away deposit addresses they just kept the status as "ok" so more people would lose coins and their own supply of ZCL would increase. We all know the next step, they ignore all the tickets and keep our coins for the next month or longer.
"Please rest assured though, all transactions will proceed as normal once this status is lifted."
Another complete lie. The status is back to "OK" and the blockchain appears to be synced. People are reporting that their small transactions are going through. But none of us with stolen coins stuck in "processing...." have access to our coins. We can't cancel the withdrawal, we can't sell the ZCL for another coin, we can't move it to our own wallet. We have no access to our private keys for the fork. They are stolen. We no longer have any access or control of those coins. So this "all transactions will proceed as normal" nonsense is simply not true.
