New Zealand digital assets exchange Cryptopia raised concern this week among users after bringing its planned maintenance window forwards “due to unforeseen circumstances.” The announcement was made on the platform’s Twitter account yesterday, July 9.
The emergency outage, instigated ahead of schedule, raised yet further questions when it took rather longer than the expected “90 minutes,” which Cryptopia said was because of “unexpected issues” that required further investigation.
Although Cryptopia says the outage is now over, several users have tweeted their complaints about withdrawal issues, reporting that their tickets are unanswered or “stuck in processing” since the maintenance was allegedly completed.
Last year, the exchange launched the ‘NZed’ (Code NZDT), the first cryptocurrency token tethered to the New Zealand dollar.
As of press time, Cryptopia has not responded to Cointelegraph’s request for comment.
