Topic: BTC-e hacked ?? - page 83. (Read 199749 times)

Exactly, none of us know a goddamn thing, endless repetitions of some peoples self referential doom scenarios with NO added information have exceeded my bandwidth patience.

Nameservers are irrelevant once the word is out

But the emphasized part certainly is. It simply makes no sense to keep funds once they get the keys. This is not dollars sitting in a bank account where no one can move them without prior consent of the bank (in this case the FBI). This is Crypto, after all. What if someone else knows the keys and moves the money right ahead of them? As to me, moving funds to a different wallet would be the first thing these guys would do

More ether just moved

Well, not that crazy. At some point, either the US authorities or the BTC-E admins were going to start moving the crypto. Unfortunately, we don't have much clue at this point which one of them it was, right? And even if it was BTC-E, that doesn't mean they're going to relaunch.

Are you kidding me? Look at the fucking wallet, 2017-07-29 23:09:20, it is a developing story.

And let people post their grief in public, we have lost tons of money.

this thread is a hell of a lot more useful, and easier to read, if you put a couple of these noobs that JUST KEEP POSTING THE SAME GODDAMN THING OVER AND OVER on ignore

just sayin'

(not you daserpent, that was the good stuff)

+ 120 million ETH on the move.

$520 million on the move that we know of, this is craziness.

If they were able to, of course they would move any crypto funds they could immediately. Otherwise, the site admins could move them with the same private keys.

It's true, the seizures are usually the most important part for federal agencies. They can easily freeze bank accounts in US-friendly countries and they generally execute such warrants at the same time that they make raids/arrests. They always act all at once for maximum impact. And the reason we didn't see the takedown page for a couple days is because of DNS propagation.

One of the mentioned adresses belonged to gox before! Epic.

Definitely in the Laundry. They are moving it all !

I think we all appreciate your research but really, you're fucking delusional.  BTC-e is GONE.  It is entirely kaput.  They are on the run from USA FBI!  There is no possible way that BTC-e ever comes online again.

$350 million on the move.

2x different 66k

Ok, did a little research.

Btc-e.com domain definitely is seized by the authorities (it's not still in control of the original owners anymore) - but this is very common and I am sure the original owners were expecting this to happen anytime. Seizing a .com domain just takes one court order to the ICANN (the domain overviewing organization) and the domain is in control of the authority requesting access. This is why, most notorious websites like to use cctlds (like .ru, .cn and so on).

Many people think that the BTC-e owners are doing an exit scam by putting up a seized notice on the website themselves and withdrawing all the coins to other wallets. But that is not the case, as we shall see below.






Now, the ETH moving to another wallet is interesting. I am sure the ETH wallet is NOT yet seized by the authorities - because if it was, they wouldn't have sent all the ETH to a wallet (https://etherscan.io/address/0x8eb3fa7907ad2ef4c7e3ba4b1d2f2aac6f4b5ae6) that receives 0.001 to 0.0001 ETH every few minutes (it is probably a small miner that is paying to this address). If we remember the Silk Road case, the FBI transferred all BTC to a brand-new wallet with no transactions happening.

So, the ETH have been moved a wallet that is still in control of the team and not the LE authorities.

Future prediction - Probably the site will come back online on a different domain other than btc-e.com. It could take longer than expected. And hopefully, all the customers will access to their funds like before.

Do you know what's interesting about ETH transfer. It seems that someone how know very little about cryptos made the transfer.
How ever it was he forget to move milloins of tokens still existing in orginal ETH address. If tokens are transferred after this message it also tells us that they are monitoring this thread.

This is very bad sign. It tells us that transfer was not made by admins.

BTC-e is a crime scene.  If USA FBI has control of the private keys (I'm certain that they do) then we're all FUCKED.  Except maybe some americans that can get their coins back through legal in USA

Sepculations, all of it. This too: They offered Vinnik Guantanamo 1000 million years or 10 year lowsec prison.  Within a second he signed and gave them everything.

Fuck you IDIOT 

No one has any idea what they will do with the seized funds.  The FBI doesn't just immediately move funds.  For the same reason that they didn't redirect BTC-e.com immediately.  They let it sit for a day or two.  And then they changed the nameservers.

There are, like, 7 USA government agencies investigating BTC-e for really serious crimes.  I mean yikes!  nobody is ever going to see BTC-e again.

As long as not Terorisim connected, then we will get our digital asset back soon.

Most of us were just small miners, using our poor salary to buy an expensive miner
and afford huge electricity bill to push blockchain work , and then earn small tips.
