Take my online courses on Cryptoversity the online school for learning about Bitcoin, crypto-currencies and blockchains at:
you did well trying to explain drug use and how to tackle it
had to wait a month to withdraw about 20 FCT from poloniex. ?
Were you able to get your withdrawal from Poloniex? I withdrew 2 LTC July 5. Now it is almost 2 weeks already and I am still "Awaiting Approval." I sent them a ticket through their support center. So far, nothing. No replies or anything.
Chaincoin is freedom from tyranny! HODL! P.s love the cryptoverse
don't leave your coins on an exchange! get a hardware wallet!!
The Poloniex withdrawal problems are 100% dependent on the size of your withdrawal. The problems are true and real. If you make a small withdrawal you will have no problems. I have been trying to get my BTC withdrawal out of Poloneix for nearly a month now. It says "Awaiting Approval". About 2 weeks ago they finally acknowledged my help ticket and put the funds back in my account, I then attempted to withdrawal them again only to find myself "Awaiting Approval" again for the past 2 weeks. And again still no answer to my ticket. There is no way of knowing if this is a security issue or a solvency issue. BE CAREFUL!
BTW theres any way to find and penalize bigblockers? Lets find and make example out of them guys.
only way to solve drugs problem- LEGALIZE IT. Props for HODLERS
https://steemit.com/steemit/@texasvsjohnson/poloniex-broke this is the article if anyone wants to read it. https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@texasvsjohnson/are-exchanges-going-under-crytpo-verse-said-i-am-doing-blah-blah-blah
proof its not blah blah blah. Crypto verse is talking a lot of blah
blah blah. Don't need to do a withdrawal yourself just look on reddit. I
didn't claim Poloniex is insolvent so don't put words in my mouth. I
said a person on reddit who said he worked for them last year stated
they were broke. And now withdrawals are lagging. Your just a crypto currency shill.
Sucide or Murder
excellent explanation of the underground market situation.
Hmm….withdrawals at poloniex work well for me…..I just did a withdrawal after seeing this video….but anyways good videos from you as usual….keep up the good work….
Good talk about the drug market as well.
liking the new background
No issue with Polo & BTC withdrawals. This broker is regularly attacked on social networks; more than others at the point I find it suspicious. It is working for me flawlessly for months.
I did a btc withdrawal from Poloniex last night and it went fine.
LOVE the new thumbnails!
Agreed on the drugs issue. The war on drugs was lost long ago, much like the wars abroad. Prohibition has never stopped anything.
Bitcoin was originally dynamic block-size but Satoshi reduced it to 1MB as an anti-spam filter.
Polo are a big player, if they go down it will hurt the alts bigtime.
