    You bought 30,000 of them.
    Of course you think they're going to go higher.

    Well, if you think you're just throwing away money on QRK, just give me the equivalent BTC instead.
    The end result would be the same, right?

    OK, look.
    Just give me the QRK.
    I'll do you a favour and take them off your hands, get rid of them for you.
    Even though it's a hassle, I'll take all 30K that you have:

    I see QRK has moved up to 4th biggest coin by market cap, overtaking Namecoin.

    Very volatile today on Cryptsy - I took all my profits in BTC, ended up about 2 BTC ahead on an initial foray of 5 BTC.

    Im currently mining Frozen - based on quark with no premine and faster confirmation times.

    Still a very new coin so low difficulty.

    Using my cpu to pool mine and a hd6870 to solo mine I got 9000 coins in 2 days and sold them for 0.33 bitcoin, not a bad profit :)

    Quark is missing from Cryptsy - both the QRK/BTC and QRK/LTC markets are missing, and QRK has been removed from the balances page.

    Didn't have any balance in there - but I know a few members do.

    Could just be offline for maintenance... but still, it's flakey.

    I just bailed on them, withdrew everything. Fantastic market in terms of breadth, but piss poor implementation.

    You would think there would be at least a tweet in the feed about it. Huge turnover, something like 1000BTC a day from memory. You can't just "vanish" $900k USD from clients without advising them of maintenance.

    This type of thing would never happen on Silverstackers... I think GP should start a Crypto Exchange! :)

    Well I just withdrew my BTC and LTC - both transfers have hit the blockchains. So withdrawals are working if you want to join in a good old fashioned crypto bank run until they sort their turtle-doo-doo out.

    As the issue at Cryptsy is Quark, I'm going to guess that they are trying to improve things due to an anticipation that Quark trading is going to get heavy once the Keiser/Still show hits the air on the 19th. Maybe they are trying to prepare. There has been talk in the Quark blogs that Cryptsy is not up to scratch to deal with high levels of trading. An understatement. Maybe people highly vested in Quark have asked the Cryptsy owner to try and ramp rings up?. Just a thought.

    Same here, my QRKs are nowhere to be seen... even the balance shows as if nothing was ever there ?

    This is the 3rd major issue my account had with them in the last 24hours, not happy Jane, think it's time to get my toys and go play somewhere else.... or at least try to get away even from such a garbage dump !

    :cool:
