Been waiting almost a week now for the 7 eth I traded for usd at $300 before the dip to clear for trading so I can buy back in at $250. Payed like $5 in transaction fees and it's still on hold.

Attached pic is their response, that it's not on their end. Am I being bamboozled or is it true, is the ethereum blockchain really that slow and congested?

What exchange do you use? About to switch to Kraken so I don't have to actually convert to fiat everytime I want to short.

Wtf I downloaded my trade history spreadsheet and theirs not even a TX hash on my order? Just an order ID and trade ID which yield nothing in block explorers.

Does this have to do with my bank? It shouldn't right because I haven't withdrawn from the exchange?? Just converted the eth to usd. Ugh

Seems Gemini is just a pleb friendly way to get into the market not meant for actual trading no? Gonna take my coins to Kraken and Bittrex

I don't get it. You didn't withdraw the money? Obviously there won't be a tx i.d. then, because they would do that stuff internally. It has literally nothing to do with any network, mining, speed or whatever. You just got a standard reply that doesn't match your issue I would say

They must be investigating you, gemini user here, works everytime and I've done shorting quite a few times too.

Fuck I'm an idiot, the "hold" is just the buy order I had open at $250. When I tried to market buy at 255 this morning it wouldn't let me so I thought the funds are locked up in processing. Fml and now it's already mooned north of 270. Not worth buying now will have to wait till next time, lesson learned. Thanks for helping me realize it anon
