My understanding is that QN will be emailing all existing customers once they have a full handle on the infrastructure of Crissic and get support situated on their end. The goal isn't to keep customers in the dark, so look out for that one hopefully soon."

Another Crissic customer asked about his deposited funds. "So what you're saying is that a customer who invested into Crissic by adding funds to their account are basically going to lose money because they can no longer buy services from Crissic (as you are no longer selling them) and at the same time the customer cannot transfer the funds to be used on the platform which you are replacing it with?" To which a Crissic representative answered they were talking to this customer already and that "Crissic customers can use existing account credit to renew existing services at Crissic.".
