Poloniex is down

in #crypto7 years ago (edited)

Since 10 min the big exchange Poloniex.com just closed it doors. Actually it replies with an 502 error which means bad gateway - their server is broken.

I was just using it before that happened - there were only 31k users. Usually the server "crashes" or is overloaded with about 60k. So this is obvious not the case, and additionally the "server" is not a single one, but there are more.

No twitter announcement or anything was posted.

Weird thing is Tezos started today it's crowd sale and we see again an emerging pattern - some exchange crashes so people can't move their BTC and ETH at that moment.

wtf id going on

This isn't good. So how do we now transfer funds out into bank accounts ?
