The onboarding at HUT8 (Imposter) was smooth which makes the subsequent experience even more frustrating. Once they have your money, the quality of service drops dramatically. Getting anyone to help you with an actual problem is nearly impossible.

Pros: Fast execution|Good analytical tools|Competitive fees|Dividend tracking

Cons: Inactivity fee applies after 12 months|Live chat only during business hours

Chrome extension broken

The platform at HUT8 (Imposter) is riddled with bugs. Charts display incorrect data, order confirmations sometimes fail silently, and the portfolio tracker disagrees with actual positions. After since the beginning of the year of dealing with this, I have had enough.

Pros: Two-factor authentication|Educational resources|Excellent charting|API access

Cons: No integrated tax optimization|No live chat on mobile

They blocked me after I invested

I want to warn everyone about HUT8 (Imposter). They have been flagged by Financial Markets Authority as an unauthorized entity. I wish I had checked before investing. They use high-pressure sales tactics and fake testimonials. Once you send money, getting it back is nearly impossible.

Cons: Cannot withdraw funds|Not regulated|Pressure tactics

They blocked me after I invested

Tried to withdraw my funds from HUT8 (Imposter) and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.

Pros: Initially responsive customer service

Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized

No risk warnings whatsoever

HUT8 (Imposter) offers copy trading. I copied a top trader. The copy trades often executed at worse prices than the original. When I asked why they said it was due to latency and liquidity. So the feature is broken or they are skimming. Either way I stopped using it.

Pros: Excellent charting|Professional team

Cons: Research section could be deeper

Nothing works as advertised

After using HUT8 (Imposter) for the past six months, I decided to move my account elsewhere. The platform was unreliable, withdrawals took an unreasonable amount of time, and I could never get a straight answer from customer service. Frustrating experience overall.

Pros: Risk management tools|Portfolio tracking tools|Customizable dashboard

Cons: Charting tools need more indicators

I cannot say a single positive thing

Do not use HUT8 (Imposter) for anything serious. I used them for a couple of months now for small trades and it was okay. When I deposited a larger amount and traded more, my account was flagged, my withdrawals were delayed, and I was asked to explain my trading. They treat active traders like criminals.

Pros: Clean UI|Comprehensive tools

Cons: Could offer more webinars|Slow to add new assets

They deleted my negative review

Where do I even begin with HUT8 (Imposter)? since early this year of broken promises, unanswered tickets, and a platform that feels like it was built in 2010. They spend more on marketing than on actually improving their service. Stay away from this company.

Pros: Good analytical tools|Easy withdrawals|Regular updates|Low minimum deposit

Cons: Charting tools need more indicators

Mobile app loses orders

I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to HUT8 (Imposter). They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.

Pros: Professional team|Reliable uptime|Two-factor authentication|Low minimum deposit

Cons: Website design could be more modern

Proceed with extreme caution
