OUR PLANS TO HANDLE POTENTIAL BTC NETWORK DISRUPTIONS
There are a number of proposals for technical changes to Bitcoin that may
take effect in the coming weeks, so we are taking this opportunity to
communicate our plans for managing any resulting network disruption. We take
no position on the desirability of any particular proposal nor do we have a
stake in any outcome. Our primary concern is protecting our users and their
tokens.
As we have done in the past when faced with similar circumstances (1), any
decision we make will be with the security of users' tokens in mind. We will
be disabling deposits and withdrawals of Bitcoin (and all BTC related tokens)
any time we deem necessary to ensure that all tokens stored on Poloniex
remain safe. The length of any possible downtime is unknown as this is highly
dependent on network stability. Our objective will be to bring the wallet
back online and enable deposits and withdrawals as soon as we believe it is
safe to do so. Trading will be unaffected during these periods.
At this time, we cannot commit to supporting any specific blockchain that may
emerge if there is a blockchain split. Even if two viable blockchains emerge,
we may or may not support both and will make such a decision only after we
are satisfied that we can safely support either blockchain in an enterprise
environment. If we decide to support and make available derivative blockchain
tokens after a blockchain split, note that if you have your tokens on loan at
the time of a split, we cannot distribute the derivative tokens to you, the
lender, as you would not possess them. Such loaned tokens can, and often do,
leave the platform. (2)
If you don't want to leave the decision of which Bitcoin tokens to support
(or recognize as valid) to a 3rd party, you should not keep your tokens on
any 3rd party platform. We encourage you to follow our Twitter and Notices
board for updates.
