There is a lot of discussion over the btce bitcoin address wallets day about the possibility that one of the oldest most trusted cryptocurrency exchanges BTC-e has been hacked.
I personally have been a btce bitcoin address wallets there since and there is no exchange I would recommend more. It existed right in that sweet spot of being big enough to be efficient and have good trading volume, but not so big it would be an irresistible target to hackers.
Additionally there were lots of rumors that the exchange was tied to some very powerful individuals which would create great disincentive for attackers to go after it. Unfortunately at this time I am not very certain about their winning btce bitcoin address wallets preventing a centralized compromise of their exchange being maintained.
It is not unprecedented that they have gone down for this period of time or longer for unscheduled maintenance, but there are a lot of circumstances this time which add additional suspicion to the circumstances. It is true that they may have a lot of work to do in preparation for the August 1st Segwit implementation into Bitcoin along with potential forks, but something like this would have been announced beforehand. The official BTC-e Twitter account claims this is simply unscheduled maintenance activity but there is sufficient reason to btce bitcoin address wallets this may not actually btce bitcoin address wallets the case.
The main piece of evidence of a hack is what is reported to be a BTC-e wallet address which has transactions consistent with a Bitcoin mixing process where the coins are sent out in many smaller transactions and later again consolidated to conceal the btce bitcoin address wallets and outputs.
This activity can not be explained under the rubric of maintenance if it is indeed the address to the BTC-e wallet. As you can see the above listed address has an extraordinarily large balance for anyone other than an exchange with activity consistent with a coin mixer going on until the time of this posting. Main remaining output balance of the above address: There is no other reasonable explanation for this transaction activity other than trying to obfuscate the end point and origin of the coins.
Unfortunately back then the value of the lost coins were a mere fraction of their modern day valuation, and I don't think this is something they could afford to do this time, nor would it be a wise business move to do anything other than fold at this point. I btce bitcoin address wallets hold out any hopes for reimbursement this time, and any funds not compromised will likely be caught up in bankruptcy court where the largest claimants will have first priority over the remaining funds.
I wish I could be more optimistic about this one, but I think we may have just witnessed the falling of a Bitcoin institution with BTC-e. Now it is looking like it may be more likely one of the lead people at BTC-e may have been arrested for money laundering, and those in control of the wallet may have ran with the funds. Could this btce bitcoin address wallets be btce bitcoin address wallets to BTC-e?
I have been in the cryptocoin community for quite a while as well as a user of BTC-e, and right now the prospects don't look good. Of course people will suspect this as FUD, but I try really hard to not be involved in such things, and am very capable of separating it out from actual evidence which I have presented here to the best of my ability. This post received a 4. For more information, click here! Unfortunately at this point it is looking increasingly clear that BTC-e is gone for good, along with its user's funds.
