Did anybody already found out who the owner of 50btc.com is? All I know is he transferred 45000 BTC from the 50btc cold wallet to some other address in March this year. I hope for him, he did not sell these in March, before the peak, but transferred it to another address also belonging to him.

I have 91btc tied up with 50BTC! No response from their support as of yet either. I requested the withdrawal over 2 weeks ago now...

I still have a small balance at 50BTC that I want refunding and I'm sure that I'm not the only one. Anybody interested in a group legal action against the owners  as they must have some assets that can be seized ?

I feel sorry that they've been the victims of crime, although we only have their word for that, but they should have carried insurance to cover that eventuality.

They have a few options available.
1. closed down or just leave the site as seems to be the case.
2. start a fresh.
3. if they had a back up of balances give everyone a percentage share of what is left.

hindsight is a wonderful thing i know but why on earth were back-up of balances ect not made on an hourly basis ?
I feel for everyone. I was one of the ones who lost a lot of BTC's to mybitcoin.com & now this.
I'm gutted.
Now i will make multiple backup copies of my wallets and store them off line.

Update: I'm now unable to login at all now.
Upadte2: I'm able to login again but my payment is still processing since the 5th November.

I am waiting too. i also have some points in there. hope they can back ..even tomorrow!

Hmm, must be you couple reporting (or a small outage), I logged in and even went to graphs, no issues... obviously I do not have $100k + waiting for cash out, but we already know that is up the duff...

It would be nice to see an appreciation once it is back up and running. Yes I am a born optimist!

+1 for logic and common sense. Shame 'common sense' is not so 'common'... funny that, eh?

Please... learn to read english.  I'm pretty fucking good at math.

The problems started on the 18th of October.

Read a bit starting here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3364036

I couldn't give a shit when they decided to first make an announcement.

Hmm i guess you need to check your math




they first reported something wrong on 10/21/2013


Status Update
28.10, 10:38
After the attacks that we’ve experienced from August 2013 till the October we’ve lost user balances data and huge part of the funds. We still can not figure out the full list of vulnerabilities that have been used to perform the attack.
Status Update
25.10, 10:26
We keep on investigating the way the billing-software was hacked but vulnerability still can not be identified. That's why we've made a decision to rewrite billing software from scratch.
Hacker's attack didn't affect 50BTC ASIC shop
21.10, 09:28
The attack will not affect shop's work in any way, it's still accepting orders.
Pool will be working in 0% commission DGM mode until the vulnerability is figured out.
21.10, 07:34
Until we figure out which vulnerability was used to perform the attack all workers will be switched to the DGM mode with 0% pool's commission.


from that first post to now is only 18 days


learn to count and try not to blow it out of paportion to make things bigger then they are

Sorry... I call bullshit.  Let me clarify.  It's been 20 days since payouts were halted.  They obviously knew something was up 20 days ago since they stopped allowing payouts.  Just because it took them 9 days to make a statement has no bearing, and in fact calls into question the veracity of the statements they actually have made.

It has not been 20 days since they have posted on what is going on

the last post from them was on their site was 11 days ago and they stated they are working as fast and hard as they can to fix this issue

it's not like they have a " Staples Easy Button " they can hit and everything is all better

they have to make sure everything is secure before they put funds back in the Hot Wallet so that the new Funds are safe from being stolen like the other funds were

I know i have been one of the ones Upset about this but i bet if we give them the chance to fix this and make things right they will
Not to mention with the High Price of BTC would you want to risk 2k - 7k BTC being stolen because they rushed the security of the new billing system and it allowed the hackers to get at the new batch of funds just because everyone was yelling and complaining and they were trying to pay everyone out before security was done? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

I think not

20 days and no detailed response to the community and the miners that mined here.
I think it's about time we added this pool to the list of further scams.

RIP 50BTC, sad to see you go, great website, great user interface graphs stats etc.

I've taken my hashrate elsewhere, and removed 50BTC as a backup pool as well.

I didn't lose a lot of BTC, however since I was mining using ASICMINER Block Erupter USBs I lost a lot of mining time... all that Satoshi dust is important to a little guy!

Not much left for me in there, 2 BTC, but it took me a long time to mine those 2.

 

Nothing...

They have disappeared it seems

Hmm I see I am just a small fish. Down BTC1.2.

When I try to get my bitcoins out, I get:
Some error occurred

Not a happy camper.  I've still got a Block Erupter pointed at 50BTC, but now I'm considering taking my 330MH/s elsewhere

i have only 82.xxx btc on that pool...i'm dead man waking...
