Alas as the gov has now taken control there is a 100% chance we will never get anything they will take EVERYTHING from us depositors in the name of "justice" and sell them off for their profit.

The gov.. utter scum.

Hello Spazzdla,

I do not understand gov. Why do they not pay out the coins to the former owners?
They should be a model.

But you are right. They take everything they can.
There is no justice.

Kind Regards,
Zorro

The owner Paul Vernon claims that a bunch of coins were stolen via a hack. So he can't give us our money (coins) back. He says now that the coins were stolen over a year ago and he withheld this info and kept accepting deposits. Of course we don't know for sure if he was hacked. He may have just taken it all himself. If there was a hacker, I haven't heard that there is any progress on finding out who it is.

I guess it's just another "I got hacked" scam. Most websites use this reason to runaway. Of course if you assume that it's true, then you will not be able to get your coins back. I wonder why would someone "withhold" that info as it's a big bad news to the users.

As far as i know that money is gone. He (Paul) did take it. Sure he made some excuses but we all know how late it is.
Either write it off or wait for some group action suit.

Hi,

here is a article regarding Cryptsy:

Court Takes Control of Digital Currency Exchange Cryptsy: http://www.coindesk.com/cryptsy-assets-frozen-as-florida-court-appoints-receiver/

Does anybody know what to do to get some coins back?

Kind regards,
Zorro

I'm telling you, this is the work of "The Owner".

What is the status on the hunt for the hacker who stole the coins? Has anyone provided info on the matter and claimed the bounty?

98.6% of people know that Paul Vernon did it, ergo nobody gets the bounty except Paul.

@Gleb

The hacker thief is known in the community as "The Owner".

Oddly enough seems to be the very same person that got Mt. Gox, Inputs.io, MCXNow, and a few others.

It's hard to prevent a hack by "The Owner"

Many exchange did this kind of "exit" and many more will follow...that's the nature of online business + money + low security.

I agree! It doesn't have to be a bitcoin related business to go away like this. Throughout the internet history we have seen multiple companies coming and go!

That's why the best strategy is always to diversify investments among various companies, wallets, etc.

Most people disregard the high risk involved in BTC business.

no, not like Mt Gox. Mt Gox could have been legitimately hacked. cryptsy was an inside job. odds are that a few wallet types could have been hacked, but hackers would have had to hack every type of wallet to drain them. cryptsy must have hundreds of other wallets unhacked and could liquidate them to make investors somewhat whole again. these multi coin exchanges usually only have one type of coin hacked or stolen at a time. mt gox was unfortunate because the one type of coin stolen just happened to be the only type of coin they supported. for a multi coin exchange, just having a single type of coin stolen is a big deal. having every type of coin stolen is an obvious inside job.

Ok understood. thanks.

I would very much love to tell you that you are wrong, but unfortunately I guess that we will not see our money again.
So if you are still thinking about it, just forget it otherwise you will get a terrible headache

Official information goes here. If there's anything to add it will be there (so you can spare yourself from reading troll threads Cheesy

). And yes, your coins are most likely gone for good.
