Yes One after another scammer hacking every site. I dont think these are scammer that hacking these site its their own site owner who are hacking the sites. Now i also lost my 3$ in this site
. Its not the point that i only lost my 3$ but the point is How i can safe my BTC when all the site going down every day?Well, its a matter of statistic, only leave coins on an exchange for those minutes/hours it is needed to exchange, and hope you don't get caught in the middle of a hack.
Else NEVER leave coins at exchanges for longer time.
As I told before a simple use of the multi-Sig "function" could avoid this type of situation (check greenAddress and see how it is easy to use).

I hope that now a lot of people learned the lesson, never keep your money on an exchange. The unique way could be : these exchange should start to use multiSig "function" (for example with greenAddress) for their cold wallet ( the bter's cold wallet wasn't a real cold wallet 
).

It is interesting to see how the thieves have nicely distributed the coins into 7 x 1000 BTC addys, and the left overs has gone into a mixer.
i don't see any leftovers going into a mixer. The total sum is split into 1000 BTC chunks ant the balances are still there, in those few wallets...
Looks more like someone is going to extort money from Bter as a free giveaway, as it happened previously with NXT coins
Looks like you are right, I am still curious about this transaction:

I wrongly assumed it was being mixed, but looks likes these addies has been used before.

I think the multi-signature technology has a lot of potential, and I think we will see more of this in the future.
However, I have yet to see any exchange implementing the tech for a trading pair (e.g. BTC-LTC), dunno if it is even possible, but if it is possible, then is it exactly what we need.

Bter had been hacked before (some NXT coins were stolen) and they didn't close. Thus it now appears that they were actually hacked... 
Oh sorry , I read 15-02

How do you know?
I asked the owner of bitcoin nordic not to long ago, the left over of BIPS was fusion with bitcoin nordic, which used to be my broker, they now goes under the name coinify.
I expressed my concern over this fusion and got a detailed explanation.
But you have a good point, they could be lying, so I do not know for sure.
Edit: I learned my lesson back then in 2013, 3 coins lost
February 15, 2015, 10:53:14 AM
Ofcause you cannot redraw 7000 BTC at once without getting caught, so the 7x1000 BTC will be long time storage (properly many years) and the left overs that is in the mixer will go to one heck of a party.
It is possible to trace the stolen money even through a mixer, provided the mixer owner is willing to cooperate...
I don't think this will work in case of thievery, otherwise a mixer owner becomes an accomplice...

However, do someone from you "noticed" that the hacker(s) has (have) put 0:zero as fee in each TX ? In the bitStamp attack I remember the fees were 0.05- 0.25 (and more) btc.

The smart thing to do for the thieves would leave the coins alone
Then it makes no sense to steal the coins in the first place...
And the thieves was never found...

The BIPS hack 19 Nov 2013, was 1200 coins stolen, the coins was send to:

The coins has not been touch ever since.
