The title of this thread is misleading. Vircurex isn't "freezing" anyone's BTC, LTC, FTC, TRC. They are refusing to honor the IOUs which they issued when someone deposited their BTC, LTC, FTC, TRC.

If you aren't the sole controller of your private keys, you don't have any bitcoins.



I didn't choose that wording.. they did.

Btw.. this update did not appear until after I cleared the browser cookies..



After my initial attempts to withdrawal BTC failed, I bought some FTC. I have since sent 0.234xx BTC which has yet to appear on my account.

In case anyone was further mislead by this post, he basically means the same thing just said with fancy words.

There aren't any coins left to honour deposits as a result of the hack last year. 

I withdrew coins in the form dogecoins a few days ago.  You may still be able to convert to doge and withdraw, I'm not sure about this.

I can't foresee trade fees being able to pay back all deposits, although we don't know actually number of coins we are talking.

I get this when I attempt to withdrawal BTC or FTC.

Frozen Funds

 In preparation of the following, we have with immediate effect stopped the possibilities to withdraw BTC, LTC, FTC and TRC. All incoming deposits will also not be credited to the users accounts for the time being.

 On 24th March 2014 we will be freezing the current BTC, LTC, TRC and FTC accounts, then perform the below distribution of the available coins and reenable deposits and withdrawals. This action will also require us to delete all open sell orders for BTC, LTC, FTC and TRC.

SCREW YOU vircurex ! RETURN MY COINS !
