Poloniex: Now Troubling Litecoin Deposits/Withdrawals

Poloniex are having yet another problem: this time blocking out Litecoin, claiming some "issues" with the Litecoin block index (we haven't heard of any issues like those though, and they apparently are not of any interest anywhere else outside Poloniex).

Meaning -- yet another disruption to all who are trying to do some meaningful trading using Poloniex' not exactly low-cost services (Poloniex are charging a whopping percentage of trade volume in "commissions" that would make E'Trade and similar conventional brokers green with envy (or turqois, pun intended) and simultaneously pale by comparison. (Unlike E'Trade, Poloniex do have not even have to pay any exchange fees, hence are pocketing the entire sizable commissions amount all alone)...

And for this, you get -- well, not exactly Premium Service anyways -- the latest blackout at Poloniex just being the latest example of that.
