Today, I was just going to visit Liqui to check up on some funds I have at the exchange. That is when I was presented with the following message:
"DEAR USERS,
Recently, we were happy to announce the change in our policies. We gave you the right to decide whether you want to be with us in our Crypto Exchange journey by accepting the changes.
Much to our regret, after this step Liqui is no longer able to provide liquidity for the Users left. We also do not see any economic point in providing you with our services. However, we do not want to return to where we were a month ago. Hence, we decided to close all accounts and stop providing our services. It broke our hearts to do that.
You will be able to withdraw your Digital Assets through our website within 30 days after this message was sent. If you did not withdraw delisted Digital Assets since we announced changes in our policies, you will also have another 30 days from the date this message is sent.
After 30 days we cannot guarantee that we will be maintaining our website. In this case, all withdrawals will be processed through our support https://liqui.freshdesk.com until the last user store his assets with us. Note that our Terms of Use will apply until you have your more than zero balance in our wallets. If we do not provide services we cannot store your assets for free, so the fee will apply if you fail to withdraw in accordance with our Terms of Use.
We may be back soon. However, that depends on the market which has significantly changed since 2017. We do not know what else to say but say thank you for supporting the cryptocurrency community and your faith in us.
We want to finish this message by the phrase of Marianne Williamson - "Every ending is a new beginning. Through the grace of God, we can always start again".
Your Liqui Team"
In other words, Liqui has closed down as an exchange from one day to another. It is still possible to withdraw your funds, and if you do have funds there, make sure to get it done as soon as possible! This is yet another example of the bear market and the consequences of it.
Luckily, this isn't one of the big exchanges, but one that has had a lot of negative critics and people fearing an exit-scam at any time. Well, now they are history, so withdraw your funds if you have any, and move on!
