No, not Mtgox again. Mtgox lost all bitcoins whereas Bitstamp states cold storaged coins are fine.
So either you can't read or you don't trust Bistamp.

This have something to do with recent BTC price? I'm guessing yes.
Want to guess who's been dumping
Bitstamp CEO probably on an extended vacation in his newly acquired island mansion in Dubai.

Here we go again...another service bites the dust...mt gox part 2379248723897234879234. This shit will never end until it takes bitcoin down with it. Unbelievable.

Im thinking they currently just have a technical issue, im not using them or have any money in there but its doesnt look like a gox situation.
The fact of the matter is...regardless how 'bad' this situation really is...it shows that bitcoin money is safe nowhere. Exchanges can basically take your money and run at any instant and claim they were hacked...with no repurcussions or explicit proof. If that isn't enough to scare away any potential future adopters, I don't know what is.
Yes its a real problem and it makes an advert for regulation and bitcoin banks. We need safe simple wallets and exchanges.
lololol

Having lost various amounts at cryptorush and coinex...hearing stories like this don't even phase me...it's just another broken record that you basically expect.
Addtionally...anyone ever notice how these exchanges just so happen to conveniently go bust right when bitcoin is experiencing huge price volatility (either good or bad). It's like the scammers don't even really care about hiding their motives anymore, because they know they can get away scotch free.
this is so 2000 and lame
lololol

BITSTAMP SERVICE TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED
We have reason to believe that one of Bitstamp’s operational wallets was compromised on January 4th, 2015.
As a security precaution against compromises Bitstamp only maintains a small fraction of customer bitcoins in online systems. Bitstamp maintains more than enough offline reserves to cover the compromised bitcoins.
IN THE MEANTIME, PLEASE DO NOT MAKE DEPOSITS TO PREVIOUSLY ISSUED BITCOIN DEPOSIT ADDRESSES. THEY CANNOT BE HONORED!
Customer deposits made prior to January 5th, 2015 9:00 UTC are fully covered by Bitstamp’s reserves. Deposits made to newly issued addresses provided after January 5th, 2015 9:00 UTC can be honored.
Bitstamp takes our security and soundness very seriously. In an excess of caution, we are suspending service as we continue to investigate. We will return to service and amend our security measures as appropriate.
