Btc-e is a scam.They took 12 btcs from me in 2014 and i requested them to return the btc but they wont.They hacked me to get my living address and banking details and harassed me for 4 years and they are still harassing me.After taking all my money they told me they could hack my bank account and take all my money from my bank account as well as they have my bank details and they hacked my phone and all the apps on my phone as well. Btc-e intercepted my emails ,phone conversations and invaded my privacy.Do you know how shameless they are?
After a few years after taking all my coins ,they sent me emails to cheat me to invest in some ico that they participated in. When I reported btc-e to the police, they sent me death threats and harassed me near my place.Btc-e is set up by the NSA to track people using bitcoins.This is because bitcoin is a NSA project.Once you use Btc-e you will be under surveillance by the NSA forever.

this is good news, because what I heard that the perpetrator has been doing money laundering with 4 billion dollars into bitcoin, he can cheat more people more if not immediately arrested. this is also a form of warning against hackers and scammers to stop them from doing evil.

Wex is not going to cooperate with any US-based customers at all.  End of story.  Yes, that sucks.  Remember, the FBI is still investigating.  I personally suspect that this is the beginning of a concerted effort to freeze out any Americans from crypto currency in retaliation.  But I cannot justify this statement.

He is operating illegally. It's not like they are actively looking to go after the people. He was operating illegally and therefore was dealt with.

Too many scammers destroying the name of bitcoin. Perhaps this is why Satoshi is hiding somewhere, he didn't want his coin being used for bad purposes and to scam digital money from innocent people.

Hey, maybe SN created MyBitcoin.com and kinda saw the writing on the wall that Bitcoin's days were numbered so he implemented an exit strategy.

BTC-e = Exmo= Wex = same scammers and fraudsters.  it's simple Smiley

as long, the clients will tolerate exchangers like them, shits like this will happen.

Yup and the fack they are scamming people by not allowing those locked out back in speaks for itself, Just this link alone with a $10,000 USD Bounty is pretty much EXACTLY whats happening.... We are screwed.

I lean toward whoever is behind the new BTC-e are/were no way part of the original, the nefarious actors simply coming along and phishing vitals from all willing to give it to them under the belief that their assets are/were still safe and will be returned. Think about it!

He will act like that in any shape or form, the real reason for the arrest may be because they do not collect any user information and may be so the reason he was placed under money laundering. They accept bank wire and they send wire to them. This means that they have done business in the US under FINCEN and they need to register as MSB. What does it mean when people just let their money sit like $ 2500- $ 10,000 in a exchange because we all know that you do not have full control over it.
so I will be grateful to you that next time you will not use a bad word with another person because it is so bad in front of people it is not a good thing to do. So be careful the next time.

So according the most recent update they are offering BFX style tokens and also doing an ICO from them.  This could clear the debt instantly if they did a good job on it based on past large ICOs numbers.

Who would put money in BTC-E2 ? These people must be crazy surely.

BTC-e operated without any issue for more than 6 years, until the FBI seized their servers. They never cheated their users, and never asked for any ID verification. So I still trust them more than any other exchange.

Leroy "Honestly" Fodor also didn't proofread his posts prior to publishing.

Yes, the losses are being socialized. But coin holders are in a better position than fiat holders, from the looks of it.
Could you explain a bit more about that part?  Do you mean that only the fiat is being redistributed, and 'coin holders will still keep their original 'coin balances?

"Free access" seems contingent upon identity verification...
Yes, and that's the other concern I had.  Do you think it will apply only to the fiat-holding accounts?  (My concern is that governments are pressing for "registration" in order to know who's got which 'coins, even if those were merely moved onto BTC-e for trading, and never even interacted with fiat.  In other words, has the government effectively taken my 'coins hostage?)

I'm having trouble comprehending the Google translation of BTC-e's announcements.  What it sounds like they're saying is that the U.S. confiscated the dollars outright, and therefore BTC-e will "socialize" the loss by redistributing my alt-coins to people whose dollars were stolen...  Please tell me I'm misunderstanding this!

And if I am mistaken, then should I just wait until BTC-e eventually resurfaces (hopefully), at which point I will be free to access and transfer my alt-coins if I so choose?  (Or am I really not getting the point, and my alt-coins are truly gone forever?)

They didn't say the U.S. government confiscated the dollars outright. Okpay announced on its blog that Mayzus Financial (its parent company) froze accounts that it believed were connected to BTC-e (and forwarded account information to law enforcement). BTC-e confirmed this in one of their updates. Yes, the losses are being socialized. But coin holders are in a better position than fiat holders, from the looks of it.

Regardless of how this turns out, could future seizures of crypto wallets drastically impact the value of a coin? Say an exchange holds 50-60% of the entire supply of DASH, or XMR, or whatever. If that was seized and detained as evidence, wouldn't that effectively double the value of the remaining coins?
