Hi I am amongst the many people who lost cryptocurrency when the exchange cryptsy decided to stop allowing withdrawals just over a year ago. I read that you are able to claim now through this page:

The problem being is that they require documentation and proof of what coins we lost, something which is quite hard to prove because I did not save any screenshots of my account and the site has dissapeared.
Maybe you have any suggestions on what I could to regain any of that information, maybe there is some online tool that I can use to find this proof or maybe its stored somehow on my laptop?
In any case in case you are one of the affected people that lost coins on Cryptsy maybe reading this post can help you to make your claim and hopefully regain some of your lost cryptocurrency.
I had almost 700 Dashcoins in my account at the time the site dissapeared and was trying to withdraw for months before all this happened with no luck.
Maybe you can proof the coins you owned with the transactions sent to cryptsy and a message signed with the origin adress. It is not ideal since that does not reflect the exchanges made later but it is something.
My thoughts exactly!
I lost DRK/Dash too. I think the most worrisome thing about the settlement is they want to only pay on the dollar amount of the cryptocurrency from 2 years ago. When, really we had bought a "thing" and it should be replaced at the current value.
I was not aware of that, if that is the case there is little point in doing this. Imagine having those dash at market value today? This is such a joke, and such a bad reminder of past mistakes :(
Well, if enough of us object to the settlement by May, then they are going to have to renegotiate. We have to hold the lawyers feet to the fire on this, otherwise they will pocket the difference and put the proceeds into some dodgy non-profit (I think that detail is in the settlement if memory serves me correct). So, now is the time to do something.
Thanks so much for that extra information. I only read about this last night I had no idea that there was a claim going on. I will have to investigate further.
Yeah its pretty intense, actually. They literally have Big Vern's ex-wife selling her house to comply with the settlement. So, there is at least a million dollars available for the settlement.
