It was going to happen. It was there written in chinese for all of us to read...

Just going to ask the obvious here. So if 3rd party financial institutions are banned from working with bitcoin exchanges, and so are banks, then how do people move fiat into and out of the exchanges?
I feel like something was lost in translation here. Either the chinese exchanges are going to basically die, or a there's a bit of a misunderstanding and they can still be used by another route.
Another problem is that many here have a very vested emotional interest in a biased interpretation of the news. Cold hard facts would be nice.
Ban not enforced yet, but many banks are starting to pull out. Therefore, there is still time for the chinese to withdraw CNY. ---- And for those who kept quoting my post and writing other phony things, that's not even part of the discussion in the other thread. The legal document was open for interpretation and it seems it is skewed towards supporting PBOC policies. This is not aimed at the post I'm quoting.

Well, it's happening, my prediction came true.
Looks like the payment exchanges and financial institutions will not be allowed to assist with bitcoin related transactions.

I'm expecting gold to fall, USD to rise, but with bitcoin there is a speculative force.
So, if bitcoin keeps expanding it will keep rising.
However, recent evidence suggest bitcoin is being clamped down on, and so we are seeing the price fall regardless of the Fed's decision.

One thing people are discussing on here is the validity of the China news today. It seems likely that it is a false report. Everyone is panicking from the news of one reporter, who is interpreting one source.
Anyway too late to sell I guess, so hold might be better Yes, but all this bad news is all coming one at a time... It seems like a conspiracy to me. Who knows what bad news is still to come?I was going to sell at $900 when the PBOC announcement was made, but then I only managed to sell at $814 earlier today.

It's funny how Cypriots boosting Bitcoin is now a thing, even though the rally at the time was already well underway when the Cyprus haircut was announced, and there's no evidence I know of that much Cypriot money has flowed into BTC.
I agree with this. There are some articles that state that most of the money came from the United States pump but it is unclear about whether this is true or not. People speculate on all sorts of news events.

BTC investors need to get over the notion that every dip is preceded by some type of bad news. Bitcoin has been overvalued for the past several weeks and what we're seeing is a market correction. We're likely to see a few more before we see a new floor established, unless that is, there is some legitimate world news that triggers another rally.
This is probably the most likely answer for the drop from $1,200 to $800 where it stayed for a while. However, the newer drop from $800 to $700 may be due to another factor.

Yeah, I read about the Garlic Bubble a few years ago. There was also an iodine bubble in China when Fukashima collapsed.

Just sold all my BTC! Thanks for the advice.

yeah right, it's a hacker... Um no! You do not know what is going on here and it seems like your doing damage control. I might as well just say this is a scam stop trying to cover for something like this. 100% SCAM TELL THE WORLD. (regardless of a ghost phantom hacker thing)
I'm sticking on the post, do not make things up like hackers or some other garbage without knowing anything. The site owner could be bouncing, stealing ripping people off and now maybe a hacker? no BS please
Yes, so let the people use their common sense. There are legitimate reasons why someone would have the setup you have described. I know what I'm writing. I only write the facts, you can make up some bs and frame it on bter if you like, but without an official statement, you would never know. I might as well say bitcointalk is a scam too when the man in the middle attack happened. How do you know that wasn't orchestrated?

I also had some problems today. I am no longer able to access my account.
I always conduct transactions using a linux livecd, so I'm very surprised.
Apparently there is some dns poisoning/man in the middle attack going on.

I suspect bter.com is under a dns poisoning attack. Don't follow the instructions listed at the top unless you are pinging to something else.
Or best, don't use the service at all.
ping cn.bter.com Pinging cn.bter.com.h1.aqb.so [106.187.40.74] with 32 bytes of data: Goes to some server with a somalia rerouting address. This is probably some hacker in Africa... Then it routes to a Linode server in Japan which is very suspicious.
ping bter.com Pinging bter.com [199.83.134.106] with 32 bytes of data: Goes to an Incapsula server in the United States and looks sort of reputable but I can't be sure as I don't know the history of the domain.
I believe the hacker has only managed to deface the main website and created a subdomain.
So far I've been able to withdraw BTC through the main website bter.com, and as of now it is pending, but don't take my word as gospel. As I might have been too fast for the hacker to remove my money even though my password and fund password may have already been captured.

I think the OP needs to contact the AFP Cybercrime division. http://www.afp.gov.au/policing/cybercrime.aspxFurthermore, if MtGox doesn't co-operate, it could be because they are part of the fraud. However, at the moment, until that happens, you should still take action to find out why someone chose such a sophisticated method of stealing your funds.

I think you'll have to code yourself up something in the pool unless you can find a way to log the shares found on jhPrimeminer.
You might want to put a bounty up on peercointalk.org

Yeah, they washed the money on the other side of the bid/ask spread. Effectively, earning the spread each time the transaction was conducted. This leaves no paper trail, or so they think, if you request the transaction history and check who was on the other side of the transaction, you may have a case. In fact it might help if you know Japanese or are connected to someone involved with mtgox. From what it looks like the hacker was on the other side of the transaction. Otherwise they were giving away free money to random people <<< Very unlikely. So, Looks like you might be able with a warrant (Japanese Authorities required) to take a look at the data. Take a look into it. I'm pretty sure RUB/BTC is not traded often on mtgox, so the hacker definitely knows their bitcoin knowledge. The same I've seen with AUD/BTC, which would guarantee that the hacker actually got the money on the other side of the trade if no one else was trading in that currency pair. But if I have anything to say, I expect the hacker to be in jail within a few months if you follow my methodology. As you can see the volume is almost always zero. https://www.mtgox.com/?Currency=RUBGo for it, you will get your money back, or in a weak case, send the hacker to jail, as they require real information to withdraw from mtgox!!!! As you can see on December 9th there was a huge rise in volume as the hacker tried to wash the funds. My guess it's someone who knows their Finance and Information Security. Luckily I love these two areas myself and understand how the hacker has slipped up. He/She will be in jail soon, don't worry about it, but hurry up and get a police report, get translators to help with mtgox paperwork, and get mtgox to block the wire transfer on the other side, otherwise the other person might flee to the Cayman Islands or some non-extradition country. I mean, I've seen a lot of dumb hackers throughout my life, but this person who stole your money is probably an idiot.

Where the fuck does CoinAd offer tasks? Stop spreading FUD!
Wow, big temper. I'm referring to the collective websites that rip people off using the system. If it's not listed, then that's not a problem. It won't hurt anyone. Like I said, do your own research. Either way, the PTR still can be construed as ripping people off anyway. People are better off using other services.
