As if there wasn't enough bad news in my country, I just received an email from Bittrex indicating that there will be no more service and that I should take all my funds out of the exchange.
I had always believed that cryptocurrencies were independent of borders, politics, and banks. But I'm sure this action is no coincidence.
I suppose there is a lot of pressure from the big powers looking for a way to close the operations of the small countries.
What do you think?
Well, I decided to investigate a little more because just receiving an email for me was not enough reason to withdraw all my funds just like that.
So I went to the Bittrex Zendex, which is a site dedicated to the support of all the operations you make in the exchange. It is important to note that one must also register on this platform.
This platform is excellent and very quick to answer any questions.
As usual, they answered me immediately.
And well this is the official information:
On October 18, Bittrex International informed customers who reside in certain countries (see full list below) that they can no longer use the Bittrex International platform due to regulatory uncertainty. All trading and account access for these impacted customers will be halted on Tuesday, October 29 date at 19:00 UTC/21:00 CEST.

Customer Support
If you need additional assistance, please reach out to https://support.bittrex.com/.After logging into support (note: different login/account than Bittrex International), select the “submit a request” button in the top right corner or use live chat to connect with an agent.
So it's true, there won't be any more Bittrex for me.
It really saddens me to miss the opportunity to use this exchange. From my personal point of view, I think it is an excellent exchange and also has a support system of excellent quality. I have no complaints about it u.u
So we have until this date to get all our money out.
