Poloniex, I Hate You!

in #poloniex7 years ago (edited)

What an opportunity! I don't know if you checked it or not but your hard earned Steem Dollars went past $2.75 on Poloniex.

But...

What a shame! Steem Dollars were temporarily disabled on Poloniex which meant that you or I couldn't deposit any SBD to sell it for BTC. 

This was a huge opportunity and I was looking to grasp it with both hands but all in vain because of the stupidity of Poloniex (I don't know the exact extent though).

Is Poloniex Manipulative?

Now this is purely a question because I have been reading regularly about it acting like a centralized institute and manipulating prices of Steem. What do you think?

Wasn't SBD Available on Bittrex? 

Yes, it was. The sad thing is that SBD never went as high in price as on Poloniex (I hate you!).  SBD never touched $2 mark on Bittrex (and my open order didn't go through).

I transferred 100.00 SBD to Bittrex in the hope that the price will go as high as on Poloniex (I hate you more!) but it didn't go that way.

SBD is Now Enabled on Poloniex

SBD is finally enabled again on Poloniex AFTER I and many Steemians have missed ball of a chance to make some serious money (selling SBD at top price meant getting more BTC).

I only wish that Poloniex stops acting like a manipulative b*tch and stops marginalizing my fellow Steemians whose main crypto assets are Steem Dollar and Steem.

Good luck to all the fellow Steemians and I hope that Poloniex becomes more responsible in future. Please upvote, comment and resteem.

No wonder .. I have bitrix and I thought I was going crazy reading people's posts that it's at 2.53. :( I guess we missed out this time

Missed out big time! I was on Bittrex hoping to get the Poloniex price but it never materialized. I've seen $2.77 as the highest price on Poloniex. (But what use! Alas!)

Sad sad world . I hope we benefit from it soon next month

At $1.94, it's still quite profitable but $2.77 would have been perfect. Would have sold and bought a lot of BTC. Sad

Please do resteem it. It would relieve me of some sadness. :D

Poloniex is shady as f***. I sent all my crypto to wallets en bittrex

I'm guessing that too and looks like I'll have to shift my assets too. I'm still sad for missing out on SBD last night.

It's unfortunate and a dirty thing to do, but many of them do that. Hope to get in when I have a $100 SBD.

Good luck and I hope you have $100 and more soon. I had some SBD in my wallet and the price got me excited. Bittrex was the only option but it didn't work out so well.

Thank you! :) People using Poloniex seem to be having problems. Now I'm more inclined to go with Bittrex. Better be safe than sorry.

I'm still learning and experiencing so I'd go with both for now even after big disappointment.

don't worry fate is two steps ahead then our plans.

So true. Thanks for reading and commenting.

So can we only jump in with 100 SBD or it can be done a little earlier as well.

Any amount. There's no restriction.

shit, i just trade my sbd for btc and then sell btc for steem all on bittrex. i got only 9 steem for my 10 SBD. i am totally stuppid.😂😂😂

9 Steem for 10 SBD isn't a bad deal in my opinion. I missed 1 Steem for 1.03 SBD yesterday. Almost a Steem for an SBD.

However, if the stupid Poloniex had enabled Steem and SBD in time, yesterday was the day to sell.
