Before the services are fully recovered, it is recommended that you read our previous announcements regarding the progresses of Hotbit’s service recovery process (click for the links of the announcements).

Nevertheless, we would still like to remind you regarding the following issues and concerns:

⚠️1.Considering the fact that we have already canceled all orders placed by our users, and it takes some time for the market makers to gradually recover the provision of liquidity, it may lead to the fact that, during the first couple of hours or days after we relaunch the trading function, the prices of certain projects may significantly deviate from their market prices due to insufficient liquidity. Please do not conduct any trading activities of which the prices deviate from your expected prices. Instead, all you need to do is to place your orders in advance according to your expected prices, or or patiently wait until the withdrawal function to be restored.

⚠️2.It is expected that, during the first couple of hours or days after we recover our services, there will be a huge influx of user traffic on Hotbit platform, which may leads to system instability and lower user experience. Please do arrange your schedule rationally to avoid the peak hours. No need to rush, as everything will be recovered in order.

⚠️3.The deposit addresses of all your assets have all been modified, please do not use your previous deposit addresses to deposit any assets into your Hotbit accounts!

⚠️4.We have noticed that the projects under puppiessection has recently become the new hot spot of the market.

Considering the fact that the events involve rewards for deposits, during the event, the withdrawal function of all projects under puppies section will be temporarily unavailable. After the event finishes, the withdrawal function of all relevant projects will be resumed immediately.

⚠️5.If you have deposited any assets during the previous two weeks of maintenance and service suspension period, please wait patiently for our ongoing progress recently regarding the arrival of deposit transactions.

⚠️6.The level of your Hotbit account(s) will be automatically raised to the highest level (V8) by the system for one month, which allows you to enjoy the best rates of taker transaction fees in all Hotbit sections (taker transaction fees of projects in selected section will be 0.06% only).
