When you think of redemption stories, Poloniex may not be the first thing that comes to mind…

_… Unless you use Shrimpy._

Early [Shrimpy](https://www.shrimpy.io/) adopters remember a time when Poloniex was a supported exchange. It was the first exchange we released along with the first version of Shrimpy. Everything went great, for a while. Over the course of several months, issues started surfacing with the Poloniex APIs. Trades were failing, their servers wouldn’t respond for long periods of time, and data was getting lost. [We had no choice but to discontinue our support.](https://hackernoon.com/shrimpy-a-week-in-development-june-3-526549019e59)

> Then, a miracle. Circle purchased Poloniex.

We started noticing updates to their APIs once again. At one point, we even got an answer to one of our support tickets! We thought it was a mirage at first, but it turned out to simply be our own disbelief. _Poloniex was making progress._

These attempts to move the exchange forward gave us hope that one day we would be able to once again rebalance on Poloniex.

**Today is that day.**

Shrimpy is giving Poloniex a second chance. The APIs have been re-enabled and Shrimpy users can once again begin managing their portfolios on Poloniex.
