Topic: BTC-e hacked ?? - page 129. (Read 199749 times)
FUD already started for price manipulation, only trust legal sources and not crap morons and idiots writte!
Anyone have any idea how we might find out what the heck happened if BTC-e doesn't tell us?
Panic, panic, panic. I have been a user on btc-e since 2012, and so far they always came through. I am not advocating for them, but c'mon this happend before that they are offline for maintenance. They already announced that there is something going on since they increased the number of conf to 6, and I know this is because of the upcoming changes. But for those changes, I am very sure that they have to upgrade their wallet and stuff - imagine the simplest thing. Something goes wrong and you have to download the whole blockchain again? This takes ages, doesn't matter on what kind of connection you are. I would wait 24 hours before panicking. We have witnessed bitstamp being offline for days, we lived through that, I am sure we can live through this.
Makes sense thanks for calming me down : D

It's doesn't trade if the BTC-e backend is down, it's just another frontend.

That address is BTC-E cold storage? How does he know that?
And how does he know that whoever is moving coins is using mixer?
I don't even use btc-e apart from watching their charts and even I'm nervous 
We are now goxxed v2
Yeah well, it's not looking good.

Get it off your phone for starters, immediately. Move all your BTC to a paper wallet and use a hot wallet for day-to-day spending. If you're sure your phone isn't compromised at the moment then use that for a hot wallet.
Thanks, will do. Better safe than sorry even it takes a bit more time.
They do have an issue but with their data center this is what they say. The problem is you are able to ping the website btc-e.com and traceroute too! so in this case, is it really a data center issue? Just before it went down a sell order was placed worth 414k BTC
The API is working so far

Guys I have btc.com wallet and electrum on my phone. Which is the most secure to store my btc for the immediate future? Should I create a paper wallet fast and store them there to be 100% sure?
I understand the fear when exchanges go down, but I don't believe this has anything to do with a hack. It might be them having messed up something when preparing for a possible split scenario, or they were expanding their server base to offer people a better overall trading experience. I have been using this exchange since early 2013, and have never had any doubts about their credibility, even though they remain quite in the background compared to other exchanges. I currently have +$10,000 in fiat and +5BTC sitting in my account there. I am however a bit frustrated that I can't buy at these lower levels.
