The issue you refer to was thoroughly investigated and shared by us at the time, it related to people who are no longer involved with CEX.IO We are very aware of our security obligations and treat it with the highest priority.
That's not true at all. You denied any involvement in double spending at all for weeks - you even tried to laugh it off - remember this answer?:
The only thing that there is no proof of, is that the staff members you finally admitted were responsible for it are no longer working for you. Hell, it could even be you who did it, who knows?
"Thoroughly investigated" indeed. That's like the police investigating the police - guess what - nothing happens. You did it, you tried to cover it up, you lied about it & you got caught. I advise everyone to take this into consideration before trusting these people with your hard earned BTC - history shows us that they are not to be trusted.
Pretty pictures, fluffy clouds & flowers to you
CEX were made aware of a very serious double spend accusation toward end Oct 2013 via the bitcointalk forum which by implication accused the company of this activity. On review of the evidence presented (which showed unusual transactions involving ghash addresses) our management team instructed an investigation be made to reveal the facts about the situation and if required take action.
Results of that investigation were published via public statement again via bitcointalk on Nov 15th which can be viewed here
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3590355We reiterate 100% our commitment to the bitcoin and crypto industry and that CEX.IO does not have any affiliation with the double-spending attack. As a part of the bitcoin community we condemn such actions, which only harm the bitcoin network.
CEX.IO has 200k active users right across the world whom trust us to work with them with the utmost integrity. Our growth over the past 6 months or so confirms the cooperative trust we have with our customers.
From this point we consider the matter closed and all information regarding it is in the public domain. As such we do not intend to comment to it any further, as our opinion is, that ongoing accusations seek only to discredit CEX without regard for acceptance of our responses.
Our focus is on growing and improving the services we offer our customers and by doing that furthering the acceptance and growth of the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency industry.
We have very exciting news in the pipeline and look forward to sharing it with you via this forum very soon.
