BitConnect News & Exist Instructions

in #bitcoin7 years ago (edited)

Late last night (at least for me) BitConnect annouced that it is halting its lending and referral program. For how long? One can only hope they restart the program soon because I don't know if anyone will buy BCC right now. BitConnect is giving you all your money plus the interest you have reinvested and accrued over the last couple of days. I do not think BitConnect lost money but it seems that they are tired of fighting off Ddos attacks. Here's the announcement they gave:

Quite frankly, a 2 billion dollar company like BitConnect should have invested in infrastructure to be able to weather Ddos attacks. Davor.io sent out an email saying that they recently had an attack that they handled in hours. BitConnect took two days to reopen.

Anyways, when investing in lending platforms or when investing in general: know that it is risky, invest money that you can are will lose, and don't invest your life savings.

Here are the instructions to get your money out of BitConnect:

Sorry guys, the bad guys won. You should do this as soon as possible.
