Dont expect from it mate. Owner have been busted and now facing violations and it would really be heavy.Dont expect if you do have funds on BTC-e because those funds would really be used on the investigation which are tools being used by the suspect. I didnt really expect for this thing to happen knowing btc-e is legit but now i know that they do really hide something on public and now he should really pay on those mistakes that he have done.

well, in case they manage to pay the $110 Mio fine, comply with AML/KYC in future and build trust with the remaining AML compliant users...


see the official FinCEN accusations:

The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), working in coordination with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California, assessed a $110,003,314 civil money penalty today against BTC-e a/k/a Canton Business Corporation (BTC-e) for willfully violating U.S. anti-money laundering (AML) laws.  Russian national Alexander Vinnik, one of the operators of BTC-e, was arrested in Greece this week, and FinCEN assessed a $12 million penalty against him for his role in the violations.

well, the case is a bit different

MtGox got robbed and closed because they had no more assets.

btc-e assets still should be there. So far they have not yet been seized. Not sure, how much company and how much client assets there should be.
This will become clearer soon.

It is not unlikely, that they will only allow AML compliant users to withdraw their assets.
