Delays in ZRX Transactions?

I acquired a small number of ZRX tokens (~20) on hitbtc a couple days ago to experiment with. I tried withdrawing them to a metamask wallet and the transaction has been listed as pending in HitBTC for 2+ days now. When I look for the transaction ID in etherscan's explorer it doesn't find it.

Is this a hitbtc issue or an issue with Ethereum congestion caused by cryptokitties. What are my options, just wait it out?

Maybe both. Ethereum nodes will only keep a fixed number of pending transactions, and if the number of pending transactions exceeds that it drops the transactions with the lowest gas prices. If hitbc sent with a low gas price, it may have been lost, never to be included in a block.

You probably need to contact them and have them reissue the transaction.

Hitbtc, warns directly on their website that there is a slow withdrawal time due to ethereum congestion. It took my friend 48 hours to get his HVN. You will be fine. Patients is the name of the game right now....thanks kitties! We need dex up and running asap!!!
