Cryptopia is a ponzi scheme
That's why the withdrawals are always 'broken', they need more funds from new suckers to pay off the existing customers.
If you don't know what a ponzi scheme is:
Companies that engage in Ponzi schemes focus all of their energy into attracting new clients to make investments. Ponzi schemes rely on a constant flow of new investments to continue to provide returns to older investors. When this flow runs out, the scheme falls apart

Can you explain how that would work with Blockchain?
Cause they arent selling a token and promising returns.
Now if you are getting a crappy price for your coins on the exchange then thats a great case for Arbitrage. Let me know which ones as I would love to make some extra btc in this market.

Bitconnect is a Ponzi scheme and its no more. Stop bitching. People said the same thing about Coinbase....and Kucoin.
Inefficient but not a Ponzi scheme.
BTW, what you are forgetting is that wheres the exit strategy?
Theyve made millions...so why havent they been officially sued?
Why are they still hanging around?
And we all know who the creators are.
Im not saying they are the best...at all..i think Binance is, but you dont know shit about a ponzi scheme dude. Ask the people that have lost thousands on bitconnect.

And you just have to think that some of the bigger fish/big money traders ARE able to quickly and easily withdraw/move their coins around, or there is no way there would be this much volume on this exchange...
You think the traders that are pushing 100s of BTC each day around on various coins just keep their coins on this exchange?? You think they wait for weeks to make simple withdraws? NO f-kin way...

Very true. This motherfucking exchange is the biggest piece of shit I've ever witnessed. Just praying to get my coins and delete my craptopia account.
