At first I thought I would panic buy, then panic sell. Then I remembered that bitcoin doesn't quite react the same way like it used to. So now I will probably do nothing, but request my fiat withdrawal on monday.

How big do you think is the risk of just leaving 200+ coins on Stamp and wait for the next bubble? I mean if they come back, they effectively proven themselves to be trustworthy and pull through with their promises. And I bet they will increase their security measures even further.

Completely moved to BTC-E. Bitstamp will have to prove they are here to stay.

But BTC-E??? I mean they have proven to be pretty reliable and not to mess with peoples' BTC. But the people behind the exchange are completely unknown, if they wanted to disappear, I don't think anyone knew where to look for them. I don't know if that's the best choice then. What about Kraken?

Finally, Bitstamp is back, but the whole "hack" thing is too shady, you know. We'll probably never be lucky enough to know the real story behind the scenes. It all might be just an epic manipulation going on there. With BTC-E, I'm confident enough to store or trade some coins. Besides, in the Bitcoin world, you can trust nobody these days. Cons can't wait to get their hands on your coins.

the only problem with btc-e is that nobody knows all that much about it and theres very little regulation in that part of the world so they could do a gox if they felt like it at any time and im not comfortable with that

until theyre are insured exchanges i wont be trading because to make 0.5% or 1%  or whatever  i need to risk 100% due to hacks and gox like stunts and i think this is keeping big fish investors out of  btc atm

You can log in to your account, but trading will only resume at 21:00 UTC January 9th.

Yeah, I got my time zone wrong. I guess I'll place orders? Dunno really what to do.

I have been speaking to a friend of mine who could be considered a whale.
He told me he is picking up 40k right now to prepare as the price is going to go through the roof.

40k? Tell your ghetto friend that I talked to my friend, a real whale, and he told me he's dumping 180k.

When they allow trading to start at 2100 UTC shit is going to go crazy.
No commission is a big deal. Multisig even bigger

100% withdraw existing balance to stick those bad-boys into cold-storage.

Do you've got any FIAT left of Bitstamp? If so, do you plan on converting that into BTC (buy BTC), keep it on Stamp or withdraw it to your Bank account? That seems to be the biggest question right now.

...The second tweet said they will likely be online in 24-48 hours. They're now approaching the end of that time frame.
...

Second tweet posted on 3:58 PM - 6 Jan 2015, so a day late Undecided



Ahh well, almost half a day, yeah. But you can't expect everything to go buttery-smooth after you lose a couple million in BTC. I'm still confident. This looks not like Gox to me. But we'll see, I guess. I also don't buy the deadline of friday until I see it on their official website.

Bitstamp will never reopen. All bitcoins and fiat traders deposited there, were stolen by the Bitstamp owners. They'll declare insolvency and bankruptcy very soon.

it might open ................but for how long ??
there will surely be a run on the bank if it does open (hopefully they can cover it )

whos going to trust a brand new system thats only been "tested" for a couple of days with coin or cash ??
i cant see then regaining popularity  or doing the previous volumes after this whether the coins are repaid or not

trust is vital in any money handling business and i think the bulk of customers wont use them again and will demand their coins back from the cold storage

the chance of this rises the longer it takes them to come back online and the more bullshit excuses and delays they are throwing out.......

Please tell me you are joking. You must be joking. Right? RIGHT???

Why would you even consider leaving your coins on Stamp instead of an offline generated cold wallet? You will be playing beta tester for their upgraded site. They could just get hacked again. Or go bankrupt once their customers have fled them in masses right after opening their site back up again (if they ever do that...).

Use some of my sock puppets to FUD the shit out of them claiming they ripped me off.


Expect this.

We see you! (I don't, because you're all ignored)
