Coinlist Explains Halting Withdrawal: Purely Technical Issue, We Are Not Bankruptcy

Cointime Official

Blogger Colin Wu has spread the word on Twitter that cryptocurrency platform Coinlist has paused deposits and withdrawals.

The journalist said that Coinlist was among the companies that suffered from the collapse of the Three Arrows Capital (3AC) fund earlier this year. According to him, Coinlist lost $35 million in that crypto fund going bankrupt.

Coinlist stated that "CoinList is not insolvent, illiquid, or near bankruptcy." As for the deposit and withdrawal issue, Colist explained it's "purely a technical issue, not a liquidity crunch". 

Coinlist full tweet thread:

1/ There is a lot of FUD going around that we would like to address head on. CoinList is not insolvent, illiquid, or near bankruptcy. We are experiencing technical issues that are affecting deposits and withdrawals.

2/ We are upgrading our internal ledger systems and are migrating wallet addresses involving multiple custodians. This is one of many efforts we are undertaking to offer our customers around the world better products and services while maintaining compliance.

3/ As with any big undertaking, there are bumps along the way. Custodian issues mean some tokens are taking longer than anticipated to migrate (ROSE, CFG, FLOW, MINA). One of our custodians had an outage yesterday unrelated to the migration that impacted many tokens on CoinList.

4/ Once again, this is purely a technical issue, not a liquidity crunch. We hold all user assets dollar for dollar. Regardless, this is not the quality of service we aspire to, and we apologize for the inconvenience. Proof of Reserves is on our roadmap. More updates soon

  • US Considers Easing Sanctions on Shadow Fleet to Lower Shipping Rates

    On October 15, a US official stated on Wednesday that the Trump administration is considering easing sanctions on vessels known as the 'shadow fleet.' These ships have previously transported oil and petroleum products from countries such as Russia, Iran, and Venezuela. This move aims to reduce the currently historically high global shipping rates. Shortly before this, President Trump had temporarily lifted sanctions on Russian diesel, a decision that drew strong criticism from Ukrainian President Zelensky, several European governments, and some Republican senators. The US official revealed that current discussions focus on whether the US will allow previously sanctioned vessels to transport 'legitimate oil.' Here, 'legitimate oil' refers to crude oil or petroleum products not subject to US sanctions, rather than oil from Russia and Iran that is under sanctions. The official stated that this move aims to facilitate the export of more refined products and crude oil from the Gulf region.
