Never thought I'd see the day where BTC-e starts policing the coins on their exchange.  Bitstamp of finex probably, but not BTC-e. Are they going to start verifying ID's too?

That may happen once Bitlicence takes form.


Isn't BTC-e still mostly anon when it comes to it's ownership? Do you think a Bolivan? exchange would care what NY says/does?

so funny to read that about btc-e.

I mean if US government is okay with confiscating (stealing) and selling some drug coins why would an anonymous exchange refuse to accept them?

wtf.

"sound money" they said.

They may have been requested by the Authorities to watch for suspicious deposits and take steps to initiate targeted anti money laundering steps.


so 1 btc is not 1 btc anymore because authorities?

Cheesy


It's more along the lines of preservation and prevention of being another victim exchange.
~ as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action.
synonyms:   sufferer, injured party, casualty; More
a person who is tricked or duped.



Case in point the end of an Era Sad




UPDATE: Withdrawals are being reviewed and people are able to do them once checked for "malicious activity"

The fact they are apparently dropping coins onto btc-e so soon makes me wonder about what other brilliant choices they've made before exiting stage right.

hmmmm ... so ... it seems some % of the stolen evolution dark market coins are now being held by the btc-e admins , for now fucking up the usability of the exchange for everyone else in the process ... coins which were of course originally stolen from drug dealers arms traffickers and the like have now been functionally confiscated by one of the "anonymous exchanges" ... gotta love the irony in that ... i guess the original thieves figured they'd sell them there ? possibly in an effort to mix them and withdraw "clean" coins from the exchange or simply to attempt a fiat withdrawal from btc-e after hocking thousands of ill-gotten non-mixed coins ? ... wow ... how fucking dumb can you get ... of course btc-e is pretty much the go-to exchange for the final step of converting stolen coins into fiat payoff but it's not *the only step* ... duh ! ... have these folks never heard of a fence before ? or a mixer service ? or know how to mix coins themselves ? or maybe they were fenced and they lied (surprise!) to the fence ? ... i mean damn ... if anyone out there needs some consultation work on *how to be a better criminal* my rate is 1btc per hour ...

@theshmadz

"Who do you trust more, your own central bank or an anonymous online network?”

Hmmm... Should I trust a privately owned central bank where the identities of the owners are not disclosed? Where meetings are held behind closed doors under cover of secrecy?

Or should I trust a distributed, open-source, transparent network where everything is done out in the open and can be vetted and audited by anyone?

... tough choice.
